Risk Management Guidelines
• Allocation never exceeds 10% of underlying manager‟s AUM
• Only invest in funds with a diverse investor concentration
• Avoid funds that lack reasonable liquidity
• All assets are held in custody of independent custodian and externally administered
• Investment team follows strict order execution process – electronic draft entered,
approved by firm principals, final execution by independent custodian
Asset Allocation
• Macro strategy implemented through top-down strategic approach
• Asset class, geography, sector, strategy diversification without dilution
• Rigorous profit taking – avoid compressed risk by sector outperformance
• Deep qualitative, quantitative and forensic study of underlying portfolios and
advisors
Liquidity
• Liquidity is always considered before making an investment
• Liquidity of our portfolios is calculated monthly to ensure we can deliver
• Liquidity transparency is made available to our investors
• No leverage applied at fund of funds level.
Quantitative Analysis
• All portfolios subject to grueling stress tests
• Monthly portfolio optimization and advanced algorithms used to compare invested
vs. on-deck vs. watch list assets

• Data used to test various portfolio scenarios and investment weightings
• Monthly „Risk and Rank‟ report review of invested funds and >100 watch list funds,
all of which we have relationships with and are potential investments
• Weekly estimates of all invested funds to better monitor short term correlations,
estimate to final performance variance and force weekly contact with all managers
Qualitative Analysis
• Both scheduled and „surprise‟ on-site visits required prior to investment
• Investment team and operational staff are interviewed several times
• Qualitative team analyzes each potential fund, produces a detailed report and
assigns investment grade
• Complete background check on all key people conducted using premier security
forensic research consulting firm
• Full audit and verification of all fund counterparties in order to virtually eliminate
11 counterparty risk
15. Investment Strategy Q&A
What is driving new opportunity in this space?
Global policy changes, stimulus spending, subsidy programs, legislation emissions and
fuel restrictions are being implemented in developed and developing countries alike,
opening new opportunities for both emerging energy and cleaner forms of traditional
energy. Cash-flow rich integrated energy companies, sovereign wealth funds, pension
funds, utilities and technology companies worldwide are spending vast amounts of
money in the energy, commodity and natural resources sectors right now.
What first drew you to this strategy?
Every person needs the vital resources of energy, water and food. The stress on these
assets due to population growth, industrialization and finite / declining resources has
created a MUST outcome for the planet. At the same time, every developed country in
the world is focused on how to provide energy and food security for its people. Every
major corporation in the world is focused on the business opportunity and how to be a
part of it. We recognize that these sectors represent the mega macro trends for the next
decades and beyond.
How do you identify opportunities?
Our investment direction is primarily driven by our extensive macro research. We focus
on large, long term profit opportunities brought about by increasing demand for energy
and commodities, fuelled by increasing population and accelerated industrialization of
emerging economies. We track and capitalize on investment themes brought about by
global policy shifts, legislation and stimulus. We closely monitor the flow of capital into
these sectors.
Describe your typical allocation strategy.
Our portfolios are weighted accordingly across our three primary sectors:
Equity sensitive strategies (predominantly long-biased):
clean energy, water, agriculture
Commodity sensitive strategies (demand and policy sensitive):
energy, natural resources and carbon & emissions
Alpha/Trend sensitive strategies (showing negative bear market correlation to
equity sensitive strategies):
systematic traders, uncorrelated hedges, cash and equivalents.
How do you determine sector weights and allocation sizes?
We allocate capital to sectors that show the most potential, while taking profits or
reducing allocations to sectors that have already experienced significant outperformance.
The size of an allocation is impacted by the underlying manager‟s ability to deploy capital
profitably, manage risk and downside volatility. If our research indicates uncertain
times ahead for a particular sector, we proactively limit our exposure, and redistribute
capital to sectors that show more promise. Sector allocations and weightings are also
limited by our risk management policies. Positions are sized according to expected and
realized volatility. 12
16. “The World Water Council warns that humans are extracting fresh water
at rates up 100x the natural replenishment rate. Water and energy are
inextricably linked and so are the investment opportunities associated
with their scarcity.”
Anric Blatt, Chairman
