Our Mission is Clear
Investment Approach
We believe that markets experience trends and repeating patterns, largely due to investors’ behavioural biases, and that systematic trading strategies, with appropriate risk management techniques, can potentially profit from these trends.
Our approach is to combine sophisticated quantitative analysis with qualitative insights, honed from combined decades of experience in financial markets trading and research, to select the most suitable managers.
Why Abbey
Portfolio diversification
Managed futures can help investors diversify portfolios over the long-term and prepare for changing economic climates.
Low correlation
Managed futures have delivered low correlation to equities historically and can perform well in equity bear markets.
Multi-manager approach
Our funds are all multi-manager – combining multiple CTAs and managed futures strategies to exploit dispersions in returns.
Experience and expertise
For 20 years, we’ve developed our processes, systems and team to focus on analysing and selecting managed futures CTAs.
Range of solutions
We build funds for leading investors of every size – from family offices and high-net-worth individuals to global banks and institutions.
Economies of scale
As a large, independent allocator of multi-manager managed futures, we can deliver economies of scale for investors.
Diversification does not assure a profit, nor does it protect against a loss

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Non-Predecessor Fund performance would have been lower without fee waivers in effect. The Total Expense Ratio for Class I is 2.45%. The Net Expense Ratio for Class I is 1.79%. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses until 31 December 2021. In addition, the Adviser may recoup certain amounts for the first three years if it does not cause the fund to exceed expense limitations. The Fund commenced operations as a series of The RBB Fund, Inc. on 11 April 2018, when all of the assets of Abbey Global LP (the “Predecessor Fund”) transferred to Class I Shares of the Fund. The Fund’s objectives, policies, guidelines and restrictions are in all material respects equivalent to the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), and thus was not subject to certain investment and operational restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act. If the Predecessor Fund had been registered under the 1940 Act, its performance may have been adversely affected. Accordingly, future Fund performance may be different than the Predecessor Fund’s past performance. After-tax performance returns are not included for the Predecessor Fund. Performance of the Predecessor Fund is not an indicator of future Fund results. Abbey Global LP was launched on 14 May 2002.

Reasons to invest
Low correlation
Managed futures and equities are historically uncorrelated. Combining the two assets has the potential to deliver a higher risk-adjusted return than either of the two components on a standalone basis.*
*Managed futures may not provide these benefits and these benefits are dependent upon a number of variable factors including market environments. Trading in managed futures is not suitable for all investors given its speculative nature and the high level of risk involved.
Capital efficiency
The Fund will execute both the long US equity strategy and the managed futures strategy using futures for efficient use of cash, effectively generating leverage in the product.
Help to control behavioural biases
Structuring this strategy in a single portfolio can help investors focus on the portfolio performance rather than the individual components.

Fund Overview
The Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund (the “Fund”) combines an allocation to a multi-manager managed futures strategy with a managed long US equity strategy. The remaining cash is invested in a short-dated fixed income strategy. The Fund executes both the managed futures and long US equity strategies using futures to effectively generate leverage in the product without the need for borrowing. This leverage allows the Fund to target approximately 100% exposure to the managed futures strategy and approximately a 50% exposure to the long US equity strategy. Abbey Capital is a leading provider of multi-manager managed futures products founded in 2000 and brings this wealth of experience to the mutual fund space through its product offerings.
