Potential Benefits of Investing in Managed Futures
  • All-weather performance potential. Because of the ability to trade long or short, managed futures have the potential to generate profits in both rising and falling markets—an invaluable characteristic in today’s volatile global markets.
  • Improved portfolio risk and return profile. When added to a traditional portfolio of stocks and bonds, managed futures have the potential to reduce volatility and enhance the returns of the entire portfolio, boosting overall portfolio efficiency.
  • Low correlation to traditional investments. Historically, managed futures have exhibited low correlation to other asset classes. Because of this, they can potentially serve as an effective diversifier for your stock and bond portfolio during times of economic uncertainty.
  • Powerful diversification opportunities. With 6 sectors, 150+ markets, and highly flexible investment timeframes and strategies, managed futures trading programs give you the ability to add broad, global diversification to your portfolio.
  • Transparency you can trust. Unlike some alternative investments, managed futures offer sector transparency and daily return data, so you know exactly what your investments are doing at all times.
