THE MACNICOL & ASSOCIATES
ALTERNATIVE ASSET TRUST FUND

Alternative strategies offer valuable diversification benefits and are far less vulnerable to downdrafts in valuation from changes in the general public's views of the stock and bond markets.

• The MacNicol Alternative Asset Trust provides one-stop exposure to the world's best private equity, real estate and hedge fund managers
• Low correlations to existing portfolios means higher returns and lower overall risk to you
• The Trust offers the opportunity for superior long-term returns with much lower volatility than public stock markets
• An innovative fee structure dramatically reduces expenses at the Trust level

Independent Return Profiles

• Alternative strategies are highly dependent on the skill sets of their managers and the sustainability of their strategies
• The performance of these strategies are generally independent or exploitive of changes in the macro-economic environment
• Alternative asset classes are immune from, or are designed to profit from, changes in investor sentiment
• The preferred alternative strategies will have a strong bias toward capital preservation as their prime objective
