Terms of Investment

GCG believes that past market activity has increased the need for transparency and liquidity (at least for the near-term) so investment offerings managed by GCG are set up as individually managed accounts in the client’s name – i.e. no commingling of assets as is the case with a mutual fund or hedge fund. Assets are custodied and valued at an independent Custodian, currently Fidelity Investments, and clients are provided with direct access to their accounts on virtually a real-time basis. Currently, the Terms of Investment are as follows, but these are subject to change in the future:
