Litman Gregory Fund Advisors, LLC is the advisor to the Litman Gregory Masters Alternative Strategies Fund (MASFX, MASNX), and as such is responsible for sub-advisor due diligence and selection, day-to-day coordination with the sub-advisors and monitoring of the performance and capabilities of the investment managers.Litman Gregory focused on constructing a liquid, all-weather core alternatives fund by offering distinctive underlying strategies while keeping expenses reasonable. It is the Advisor’s belief that it is possible to identify highly-skilled investment managers who can successfully execute various investment approaches that target materially lower volatility than the stock market or have a low correlation or low sensitivity to traditional investment strategies, so that the overall performance of the Alternative Strategies Fund is not heavily dependent on steadily rising stock or bond markets. Based on these beliefs, the Alternative Strategies Fund’s strategy is to engage a number of established investment managers as sub-advisors to offer investors a mix of strategies that Litman Gregory believes can further enhance the risk-adjusted return potential of an overall fund portfolio over a full market cycle.
