Frequently asked questions

Does RCM Alternatives manage proprietary strategies or allocate to external managers?

RCM Alternatives allocates to external managers in the managed futures and global macro space rather than running proprietary trading strategies. The firm's role is to identify, evaluate, and build portfolios composed of commodity trading advisors and macro funds, supported by its internal technology and research platform.

How does RCM Alternatives source the managers it uses in client portfolios?

The firm's stated sourcing model relies on experienced professionals conducting manager research and introductions. RCM emphasizes people-driven due diligence alongside proprietary technology to find unique managers that fit specific client needs, rather than drawing from a publicly marketed fund-of-funds menu.

What asset classes does RCM Alternatives invest in through managed futures and macro strategies?

Through the external managers it selects, RCM covers equity indices, fixed income, currencies, and commodities. The firm's strategy span includes long-term trend following, short-term systematic, and discretionary global macro approaches, giving clients a mix of quantitative and fundamental exposure.

Is RCM Alternatives' AUM publicly disclosed?

No, RCM Alternatives does not publicly disclose its assets under management. The firm operates without a published AUM figure, and no external regulatory filing or public record provides a verified number.

Does RCM Alternatives take direct equity stakes in companies?

No, RCM Alternatives does not make direct venture capital or private equity investments. Its portfolios are composed of positions taken through managed futures and global macro managers, which trade in liquid futures and foreign exchange markets, not by holding direct equity in operating companies.
