Investment objective & strategy

As of March 5, 2026 · prospectus

Objective. The Mast Managed Futures Strategy Fund (the Fund) seeks to achieve positive absolute returns that have a low correlation to the returns of broad stock and bond markets.

Strategy. The Fund seeks diverse exposure to macro trading opportunities such as significant price trends, both up and down, across asset classes, geographies and time horizons. The Fund may take long and/or short positions in asset classes, and the Funds advisor dynamically adjusts its exposure to individual asset classes utilizing trend -following and macro trading approaches. As a component of its overall investment process, the Funds advisor may utilize certain quantitative models and methodologies to guide its investment approach or security selection although the use of such models and methodologies may vary based on market factors and economic trends, as determined by the advisor.

The Fund may take long and/or short positions in asset classes, and the Funds advisor dynamically adjusts its exposure to individual asset classes utilizing trend -following and macro trading approaches. As a component of its overall investment process, the Funds advisor may utilize certain quantitative models and methodologies to guide its investment approach or security selection although the use of such models and methodologies may vary based on market factors and economic trends, as determined by the advisor. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing directly and/or indirectly through its wholly -owned subsidiary organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the Subsidiary) in securities and derivative instruments including, but not limited to, equity index futures and options, swaps on equity index futures, equity swaps, interest rate futures and options, fixed income futures and options, swaps on fixed income futures, commodity and commodity index -linked futures and options, swaps on commodity and commodity index -linked futures, currency futures and options, swaps on currency futures, currency forwards and equity-, fixed income-, and commodity -notes . When used in this Prospectus, the term Fund includes the Subsidiary and the term invest includes investments the Fund makes directly and through the Subsidiary. There are no geographic limits on the Funds holdings and the Fund will have exposure to U.S. and non -U .S. securities and currencies. In addition, the Fund may have exposure to issuers of any size and credit quality. The Fund also invests a significant portion of its assets in investment grade money market instruments, which may include, but are not limited to, U.S. government securities, U.S. government agency securities, short -term fixed income securities, repurchase agreements, money market mutual fund shares, and cash and cash equivalents. The Funds money market instrument holdings may serve as collateral for the Funds derivative positions and may also earn income for the fund. The Funds return is expected to be derived principally from changes in the value of securities and its portfolio is expected to consist principally of securities. The Funds use of futures, forwards, swaps and certain other financial instruments will have the economic effect of financial leverage. Financial leverage magnifies the exposure to the swings in prices of an asset class underlying a financial instrument and results in increased volatility, which means that the Fund has the potential for greater gains and losses, than if the Fund did not use financial instruments with leverage. A decline in the Funds assets due to losses magnified by the financial instruments providing leveraged exposure may require the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations, to meet redemption requests or to meet the applicable requirements of the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder. The Fund will enter into short positions, and it may use futures and swaps or sell a security short to do so. For example, the Fund may enter into a futures contract pursuant to which it agrees to sell an asset (that it does not currently own) at a specified price at a specified point in the future. This gives the Fund a short position with respect to the asset. At times, the Fund may have significant short positions. The Fund intends to make investments through the Subsidiary and may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The Fund will invest in the Subsidiary primarily to gain exposure to the commodities markets and crypto assets within the limitations of the U.S. federal tax laws, rules and regulations that apply to regulated investment companies. Generally, the Subsidiary will invest in long and short commodity -linked futures and swaps, but it may also invest in other types of futures, swaps and options, as well as certain money market instruments, including U.S. government securities, money market fund shares, repurchase agreements and other high -quality , short -term fixed income instruments. The primary purpose of the money market instruments held by the Subsidiary will be to serve as collateral for the Subsidiarys derivative positions; however, these instruments may also earn income for the Subsidiary. In addition, the Subsidiary may also invest in exchange -traded products that are listed and traded on U.S. exchanges and primarily hold crypto assets (i.e., bitcoin, ether, or other cryptocurrencies) (Crypto Asset ETPs) and futures contracts linked to crypto assets (Crypto Asset Futures). Crypto assets (also referred to as cryptocurrencies, virtual currencies, and digital currencies) are digital assets that are designed to act as a medium of exchange. Crypto assets are not issued by a government, bank, or central organization, and they exist via online, peer -to-peer computer networks that host public transaction ledgers where transfers are recorded on a blockchain. The Fund, through the Subsidiary, may have exposure to crypto assets equal to up to 10% of the Funds net assets. The Subsidiary is managed by the advisor and has the same objective as the Fund. The Fund is non -diversified , meaning that a relatively high percentage of its assets may be invested in a limited number of issuers of securities.
