Trading Capital Holdings
Trading Capital Holdings N.V. (the “Fund” or “TCH”), a public limited company, is a two-tier open-end investment company incorporated under Curaçao law on November 26, 1969 (under its former name Mastodont Fund N.V.), with its statutory seat in Willemstad, Curaçao, and registered in Curaçao, in the Commercial Register of the Chamber of Commerce under number 5028. As a two-tier investment company, TCH (the upper tier) operates through separately managed investment vehicles (the lower tiers), as explained below. With respect to the open-end character of the Fund, see under “Purchasing and Redeeming Shares” in this Prospectus.
The Fund offers investors three classes of Shares, Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class G Shares. The Fund will establish and maintain in its books separate portfolios in respect of each class of Shares (each class of Shares, a “Portfolio,” and sometimes referred to as the “Class A Portfolio,” the “Class B Portfolio” and the “Class G Portfolio,” respectively) to which the assets and liabilities and income and expenses attributable or allocated to each such class of Shares will be applied or charged. The general investment objective of the Fund is the realization of profit through active trading in financial instruments and commodities, including currencies, debt and equities. This style is sometimes called macro/trading. It is anticipated that such trading will involve a high level of leverage and the extensive use of derivatives both for hedging and profit seeking. This is an aggressive financial style which involves higher than normal risks of loss. The Fund (with respect to each of the Portfolios) does not invest directly, but indirectly by investing in other investment funds or investment companies, and may also invest in investment vehicles which are wholly or partially owned by TCH (collectively, the “Sub-funds”). Generally each such Sub-fund is advised by a principal portfolio manager and its team, allowing TCH to benefit from the diversity and experience of professional portfolio managers. The Fund (with respect to each of the Portfolios) may invest globally and is not limited as to the countries and regions in which it may invest through the Sub-funds or the amount of its assets which may be invested in a single Sub-fund or investment company. Although the Sub-funds may have restrictions with respect to the types of securities in which they invest or the percentage of their assets that may be invested in a particular security or type of security, the Portfolios themselves do not have such restrictions. The Fund’s exposure with respect to its investment in a particular Sub-fund is limited to the amount of such investment. The investment activities of the Fund (with respect to each of the Portfolios) include a wide range of specialized approaches and techniques used by the several portfolio managers, who are allowed to operate within their area of expertise with minimal imposed limitations. The Fund does not supervise or control the decisions of the portfolio managers, but adds or withdraws capital according to its investment strategies and its judgment of their performance. The styles and techniques of the portfolio managers are frequently aggressive and carry special risks. |
