Our Approach

Our approach to CSR is based on our mission statement and highlights our commitment to our clients and to the longevity of our firm.

We have developed a comprehensive CSR statement that focuses on key areas including culture, governance, risk management, transparency, ESG and SRI and diversity and inclusion.

Advocacy of Responsible Business

We not only manage our own business in a responsible manner that is consistent with industry best practices but also advocate responsible business management through a variety of forums.

In 2020, we became a UNPRI signatory to further support responsible business management and general best practices in the hedge fund industry.

We are a Core Supporter of the Standards Board for Alternative Investments (SBAI), which is committed to developing robust frameworks for the implementation and observance of responsible business across our industry.

We are a long-standing member of the MFA, which advocates sound practices in the global alternative investment industry. In 2021, we joined the MFA ESG working group to participate in ongoing dialogue on ESG, particularly as it relates to the macro market universe and directional strategies.

Philanthropy

We believe that philanthropy is an important part of our business, both in terms of supporting our external community and fostering a strong sense of team and community within Graham. Graham supports a variety of local charitable causes year-round, including food, toy, and coat drives, in addition to our support for the below initiatives: 

  • Open Doors Shelter: Graham has a longstanding relationship with the Open Doors Shelter in Norwalk, CT, which is only a mile from our headquarters. We assist the shelter’s efforts to address the complex needs of the homeless and working poor by providing shelter, food, clothing, and a range of other important resources.  
  • Robin Hood: Graham is a longstanding contributor to Robin Hood. Ken Tropin, our Founder and Chairman, actively serves on its board of directors. Robin Hood is a dedicated organization with a mission to combat poverty in New York City by providing critical funding, essential support, and fostering connections with local community organizations.  
  • One Tree Planted: Starting in 2023, Graham has expanded its commitment to environmental sustainability by contributing to reforestation efforts worldwide. This initiative aims to restore forests, create habitats for biodiversity, and generate positive social impacts across the globe.

Welcome to Graham Capital Management

By entering this website you are agreeing to its Terms of Use.

The risk of loss in trading commodities can be substantial. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. The high degree of leverage that is often obtainable in commodity trading can work against you as well as for you. The use of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.

In some cases, managed commodity accounts are subject to substantial charges for management and advisory fees. It may be necessary for those accounts that are subject to these charges to make substantial trading profits to avoid depletion or exhaustion of their assets. The disclosure document contains a complete description of the principal risk factors and each fee to be charged to your account by the commodity trading advisor (“CTA”). The regulations of the commodity futures trading commission (“CFTC”) require that prospective clients of a CTA receive a disclosure document when they are solicited to enter into an agreement whereby the CTA will direct or guide the client’s commodity interest trading and that certain risk factors be highlighted. This brief statement cannot disclose all of the risks and other significant aspects of the commodity markets. Therefore, eligible investors should carefully study the disclosure document to determine whether such trading is appropriate for you in light of your financial condition. Eligible investors are encouraged to access the disclosure document by contacting Graham, which will be provided  at no additional cost. The CFTC has not passed upon the merits of participating in this trading program nor on the adequacy or accuracy of the disclosure document. Other disclosure statements are required to be provided to you before a commodity account may be opened for you.  By accepting the terms of this statement and entering the site you are confirming your understanding of this statement.
