Investment Risks And Considerations
Prior to making an investment decision, investors should carefully consider the risks associated with acquiring and holding the CDR Series or BDC Series the ("Programs"). "Contracts" means contracts traded within the Managed Futures Program, which shall consist solely of (a) commodity and financial futures contracts, (b) interbank foreign exchange contracts, and (c) options on such contracts, all of which will be traded on established commodity futures exchanges around the world or through the international interbank currency trading system.), including the following factors: 1. Exchange Rates. The assets comprising the Programs may be invested and held in non-Canadian currencies. Accordingly, they may be affected by fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar against such other currencies in which contracts are invested or held. 2.Commodity Futures Trading. The performance of the Programs will be subject to, and therefore the yield or return (if any) to be realized by investors will be affected by, risks associated with trading in contracts by the CTAs. Generally, futures trading is speculative, highly leveraged and volatile. At times, trading in the contracts may be illiquid and may be adversely affected by exchange regulations such as speculative position limits. Also, trading in certain types of contracts, such as interbank foreign exchange contracts, may be subject to additional risks of counterparty default, absence of regulation and illiquidity due to an absence of secondary trading. Risks associated with options on commodity and financial futures contracts and with the contracts themselves will differ from the risks associated with the underlying assets. The contracts will also be subject to the risk of failure of any of the exchanges on which its CTAs trade, or of their clearing houses, if any. 3. Trading by CTAs. Past performance of any CTA will not necessarily be indicative of future results. Furthermore, each CTA will have exclusive responsibility for making trading decisions. There can be no assurance that the respective trading systems and strategies utilized by the CTAs will prove successful under all or any market conditions. 4. Suitability for Investment. An investment in any Program is speculative in nature and is suitable only for investors who meet certain criteria and have certain investment objectives. A person should reach a decision to invest in Programs after carefully considering, with his or her advisors, the suitability of these investments in light of his or her investment objectives and the information set out herein. 5.
