AN
INTRODUCTION
The Ubique Portfolio has been designed to offer flexibility and robustness by actively developing, refining and researching different investment and trading strategies across a myriad of different markets. The name Ubique, meaning everywhere, harks to the fact that the investments contained within it could be from anywhere. Why limit our investing options if better opportunities present themselves in areas we aren't currently investing it.
As a byproduct, it means that as certain investment strategies lose their potency due to changing market conditions, the portfolio has the ability to move into more advantageous ones. This combined with the spreading of risk by diversifying market exposure to only one strategy aims to give Ubique a foot up on other traditional portfolio's.
One common theme throughout all of the investment and trading strategies which make up Ubique is their systematic, quantitative approach. To be considered eligible to be part of the portfolio, we believe there can be no discretionary elements to a strategy. Why? For a number of reasons. Firstly, you cannot run back tests on discretionary investing as there are no hard rules which dictate your actions. Secondly, discretionary trading requires a human, and humans pose a major issue when investing. They are emotional creatures, are easily influenced by opinions, and are rarely running at 100%. As such, we prefer a mechanised approach, which is testable, repeatable, and results observable. In other words, we turning the art of investing into the science of investing.

The Ubique portfolio is the culmination of multiple investment and trading strategies which work together with the aim of providing a non-correlated portfolio. As with all strategies, we are constantly testing new and improved ideas which will add and/or replace other components over time.

In addition to the above mentioned, in theory, we are able to work with any brokerage as long as the instruments we trade are available to them. Please note that different brokerage houses have differing fee's and other charges which need to be considered before selecting.
FEES &
CHARGES
The traditional 2/20 model which most the market is built on is weighted to be more favourable to the Fund Manager than the investor. This has been highlighted in recent years where we have seen the vast majority of Hedge Funds, CTA's and alike under perform the benchmark.
We don’t believe that this model puts its investors first and as such, we have decided to take a novel approach to which benefits the investor during under performing years, and the fund manager when over performing. As such the Ubique portfolio works on a sliding scale, incentivising us to out perform.
Incentive fee's are charged quarterly and are calculated prorate. All incentive fee's are based upon the equity high watermark as of the close of market on the last day of each month. All invoices come with a T+30 settlement period. Account Value crossover is calculated on an annual basis if no additional investment or withdrawal. Invoices are in the same currency as the investment base currency.
