  • Trading Strategy: The Conservative Growth Index Program (CGIP) is a targeted return strategy that has been engineered to focus on achieving a goal of 20% net annual return while keeping risk exposure to a minimum. The program sells weekly put options that are considered tail risk with < 1 delta exposure on the standard pit traded S&P 500 futures option contract. Statistically, < 1 delta translates to the option going into the money less than 1 time in 100 expiration periods. In addition, the strategy goal is to keep margin requirements at 30% or less of account value. Risk Strategy: N/A

    Accounting Notes: May-June 2017 proprietary performance has been pro forma adjusted to account for maximum management and incentive fees.
