Managing Risk
To ensure that investment objectives are being achieved within stated risk parameters, Equinox monitors leverage, volatility, market sector exposure, losses from peak profit levels, and frequency of trading activity.
Equinox facilitates its trading activity through separately managed accounts rather than investing in funds. All accounts and trading activity are conducted with internationally recognized clearing firms and brokers who meet our strict guidelines, including net capital standards and credit rating requirements.
Equinox is subject to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act relating to management’s certification of, and its auditors attesting to, the effectiveness of the fund’s internal control over financial reporting.
Financial statements are audited annually by an independent registered public accounting firm, McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, the fifth largest auditing firm in the U.S.
