Your money, your ownership
To ensure the security of investors’ funds, client deposits remain in their own trading accounts. The manager has no access to those accounts and therefore cannot make any withdrawals — only the individual investor can.
- Deposits and withdrawals remain entirely under the investor’s control
- Two established models: PAMM and Multi-Account Manager (MAM)
- Gains and losses distributed proportionally across segregated account holders
- Performance fees withdrawn automatically in accordance with the contract
Managed accounts are segregated accounts, owned by investors, but with the trading decision-making function delegated to a fund manager. Managed accounts differ from mutual funds: in a mutual fund, contributions from traders are pooled together in a corpus which is managed by the fund manager, and the trader holds a portion of the portfolio with no practical ownership of the underlying securities. Two of the major modes in which managed accounts operate are Percentage Allocation Money Management (PAMM) and Multi-Account Manager (MAM).
Cryptofarm is a specialist team focused on advising investors and investment managers on the risks associated with investment operations and their execution. The team is focused on operational and service-provider risk, and is comprised of industry professionals with the knowledge and experience necessary to guide clients through investment operations, execution, custody and risk-management decisions.
Similarly, the gains or losses arising out of a fund manager’s performance get proportionally distributed among the segregated account holders.
