Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Picton Mahoney Fortified Market Neutral Alternative Fund (the “Fund”) is to provide consistent long-term capital appreciation and to provide unitholders with an attractive risk-adjusted rate of return with less volatility than traditional equity markets and low correlation to major equity markets.

Investment Strategy

To achieve the investment objective, the Fund invests in an actively managed long portfolio comprised primarily of equity securities identified as attractive investment candidates by the Portfolio Advisor’s investment process. Consistent with the investment objectives of the Fund, up to 100% of the aggregate market value of the Fund may be sold short, as permitted by securities regulations.
