Risk Management
Diversification serves as a guiding principle for managing risk in the portfolio. The goal of the risk management process is to minimize tail risk. The portfolio construction and risk management processes continue to evolve utilizing Campbell’s commitment to cutting-edge research.
In order to maintain the intended diversity in risk composition, we systematically monitor and constrain our exposure to key risk dimensions including trend time horizon (short, medium, and long term), risk factor (flight to quality, global interest rates, global stocks, commodities, etc.) and market sector (asset class, geography, liquidity, etc.).
Once the risk composition is determined, the Systematic Macro portfolio targets a stable level of volatility through time by adjusting portfolio leverage periodically.

PERFORMANCE
for Campbell's Systematic Macro Fund
EBSIX
Mutual Fund
FUND RISKS
The Fund pursues its investment objective by allocating up to 25% of its total assets in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Campbell Systematic Macro Offshore Limited that employs the Manager’s Campbell Systematic Macro Program and the remainder of its assets directly in a portfolio of investment grade securities (including government securities) for cash management purposes. The Campbell Systematic Macro Program seeks to systematically identify price trends and to develop macro and fundamental themes that exploit asset mispricing. In addition, a diversity of investment style and the ability to invest long and short across global asset classes and markets enables investment opportunities in a variety of economic environments. The Fund is generally intended to have a low correlation to the equity, bond and credit markets. There is no assurance, however, that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.
The Fund’s investment activities involve a significant degree of risk and are suitable only for investors with a high tolerance for investment risk including the possible loss of principal. The Fund may invest in commodities, futures, forwards, derivatives, (options and swaps) and other derivatives based on fixed income securities which are subject to credit and interest rate risk. Foreign currencies and emerging markets involves certain risks such as currency volatility, political and social instability and reduced market liquidity.
To the extent that the investment advisor misjudges current market conditions, the Fund’s volatility may be amplified by its use of derivatives, and its ability to anticipate price movements in relevant markets, underlying derivative instruments and futures contracts.
Managed futures employ leverage; they are speculative investments that are subject to a significant amount of market risk and they are not appropriate for all investors. Although adding managed futures to a portfolio may provide diversification, managed futures are not a perfect hedging mechanism; there is no guarantee that managed futures will appreciate during periods of inflation or stock and bond market declines.
The Fund is non-diversified which means it may be invested in fewer securities at any one time than a diversified fund.
The Fund intends to elect to be treated and to qualify each year, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. To maintain qualification for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under the Code, the Fund must meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and distribution of its income requirements. If the Fund were to fail to qualify as a RIC and became subject to federal income tax, shareholders of the Fund would be subject to diminished returns.
Diversification does not assure a profit, nor does it guarantee against a loss in a declining market.

* The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar Rating is for the I-Share class only; other classes may have different performance characteristics.
