About FARYX
The Fulcrum Diversified Absolute Return Fund is a mutual fund designed to deliver long-term absolute returns across a variety of market environments. Its primary function is to construct a diversified, "all-weather" portfolio that targets positive performance over rolling five-year periods, regardless of broader market direction. To achieve this, the fund invests globally across a broad spectrum of asset classes, including equities, fixed income securities, currencies, commodities, and derivatives, either directly or through its wholly owned subsidiary. Notably, the fund employs both discretionary and systematic investment strategies, and utilizes a tailored hedging overlay to help mitigate the impact of extreme market losses.
A key characteristic of the fund is its strategy to keep forward-looking volatility below 12%, aiming for smoother returns with lower volatility than typical equity markets. It is structured for institutional investors, reflected by a high minimum investment, and is managed with low correlation to both stocks and bonds—helping it serve as a potential diversifier within traditional portfolios. The fund pays annual dividends and has demonstrated a solid history of risk management, positioning it as a solution for investors seeking absolute returns with robust downside mitigation.
