Separately Managed Accounts, Sub-Advisory Clients, and Pooled Investment Funds
Prospective clients may, depending on their desired investment strategy, generally choose to have a separately managed
account/sub-advisory relationship or invest through pooled investment funds for which Qtron is the investment adviser.
Each is more fully described below:
Separately Managed Accounts & Sub-Advisory Clients (collectively, “SMA” or “SMA Clients”). A separately managed account
is a client-specific portfolio managed individually according to one or more of Qtron’s investment strategies. Similarly,
certain clients, including other investment managers or advisers to investment companies, may select Qtron to manage a
portion of their portfolios (“sub-advisory”). Such clients typically grant Qtron discretionary authority to manage and
invest client assets allocated to the account, subject to the client's stated investment objectives and guidelines, which may
include, but not be limited to, the imposition of restrictions or other limitations on specific securities, instrument types,
or portfolio exposure for given client accounts. Each account is subject to the terms of an investment management
agreement or other similar agreement between Qtron and the client. Please refer to Item 16 for more information
regarding investment discretion over client accounts.
