    Maple Leaf Macro Volatility Fund May 2009

    STRATEGY:To trade implied volatility as an asset class on a relative value

    or outright (long or short) basis, with a dual approach to trades

    from a volatility and macro perspective, within four markets

    (equity, xed income, foreign exchange, commodity) as well

    as cross market volatility trades. The multi-asset volatility

    approach creates signicant synergies for derivatives trading, model-

    ling and research.

    INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY:Strive to be the premier hedge fund in volatility trading with

    expertise in modelling, executing, and managing risk in derivative

    markets based on four fundamental principles: 1. Dynamic

    allocation of capital between asset classes. 2. Diversication of

    returns due to involvement in different asset classes and strate-

    gies. 3. Double Alpha approach of screening every trade through

    a macro and a volatility lter. 4. Transfer of derivative knowledge

    across markets in order to exploit synergies into prots.
