Marketing Disclosure
Rede Partners is engaged by its clients to market their funds. Rede Partners is not an advisory client or fund investor of its client funds, although its partners and employees may themselves invest in client funds via a pooled vehicle established for such purpose. For providing its services, Rede Partners is entitled to cash compensation generally based on the amount of capital commitments to the client fund, with such compensation paid by the Manager rather than the client fund. A client fund may however bear certain out-of-pocket expenses related to Rede’s engagement. As a result, Rede Partners has a significant economic incentive to solicit investors to commit capital to their clients’ funds, resulting in a material conflict of interest on its part.

CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM
Rede Partners is a regulated financial services provider and is required under various regulations aimed at combatting the finding of terrorism and money laundering activities to obtain, verify, and record information about the identities of each person or entity with which it deals. We may require information to assist in verifying the identity of your firm, its owners and principals. All information provided to us will be treated in the strictest confidence. We may not be able to provide services where we are unable to verify the identity of any firm or its owners and principals. Should you have any question with respect to this notice please do not hesitate to contact us at compliance@rede-partners.com.
CONFLICTS POLICY
The identification and prevention of conflicts of interest and the proper management of such conflicts represent an important task for any financial services firm. We analyse and manage potential conflicts of interest in such a way as to ensure the fair treatment of all parties involved in a manner that does justice to their interests and avoids any detriment to client interests.
We have put in place and maintain appropriate systems and controls to enable us to identify, record, monitor and manage conflicts of interest.
GIFTS, HOSPITALITY AND INDUCEMENTS POLICY
Rede Partners is subject to anti-corruption and bribery rules including the UK Bribery Act and the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Any gift, hospitality, fee or other benefit that we offer or are offered will be considered in accordance with UK best practice relating to anti-bribery and corruption and the guidance issued by the Ministry of Justice. This covers fees and benefits to and from clients as well as third parties.
As a MiFID investment firm, we are also subject to the FCA rules on inducements, which apply to any fee or other benefit that we receive from or provide to a third party in relation to regulated activities that we perform.
We will only offer or accept third party fees or benefits where it is necessary to do so for conducting regulated business or where we consider that it would enhance the service that we provide to our client(s) and does not affect our ability always to act in the best interest of our client(s).
COMPLAINTS POLICY
We take all complaints very seriously. We have summarised our complaints policy and procedure below. If you require any further information please contact compliance@rede-partners.com.
We allow complaints (including MiFID complaints as defined under the rules of the FCA) to be made by any reasonable means and to be made free of charge. This may include by letter, fax, email, telephone or in person. Upon receiving a complaint, we will provide prompt written acknowledgement that the complaint has been received and that we are dealing with such complaint. Please note that we do not conduct eligible business for eligible complainants, therefore are not subject to the jurisdiction of the Financial Ombudsman Service.
We will investigate all complaints competently, diligently and impartially, obtaining additional information as necessary. We will promptly assess the specific circumstances surrounding a complaint by reviewing all appropriate records and speaking to the individuals involved, with a view to deciding whether the complaint should be upheld, whether any remedial action and/or redress may be appropriate and if appropriate, whether we have reasonable grounds to be satisfied that another respondent may be solely or jointly responsible for the matter alleged in the complaint.
In the event that, we identify any recurring or systemic problems, we will consider whether other customers who have not complained may have suffered detriment from, or been potentially disadvantaged by, the same underlying matter. If so, we will take appropriate and proportionate measures to ensure that those customers are given appropriate redress or a proper opportunity to obtain it.
Rede Partners keeps complainants informed of the progress of the measures it is taking to resolve their complaint. When handling a complaint, we will always aim to communicate with clients or potential clients clearly, in plain language that is easy to understand and shall reply to the complaint without undue delay.
After full consideration of the matter we will write to the complainant providing an assessment of the complaint, informing the complainant whether we are upholding or rejecting the complaint and, where appropriate, making an offer of redress or remedial action. If such an offer is accepted, we will comply promptly with such redress.
We will keep a record of all complaints received and the measures taken for their resolution.
REMUNERATION POLICY
Rede’s remuneration policy is designed to promote sound and effective professional conduct and not to encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking. The implementation of the remuneration policy is overseen by the Firm’s Remuneration Committee (RemCo) which is chaired by the firm’s independent non-executive Chairman. The Firm shall remunerate its employees by taking into account the interests of all the clients of the Firm, with a view to ensuring that clients are treated fairly and their interests are not impaired by the remuneration practices adopted by the Firm in the short, medium or long term. Remuneration shall be designed in such a way so as not to create a conflict of interest or incentive that may lead relevant persons to favour their own interests or the Firm's interests to the potential detriment of any client. The Firm shall ensure that its remuneration applies to all relevant persons with an impact, directly or indirectly, on investment and ancillary services provided by the Firm or on its corporate behaviour, regardless of the type of clients, to the extent that the remuneration of such persons and similar incentives may create a conflict of interest that encourages them to act against the interests of any of the Firm's clients. The performance criteria relating to variable remuneration contain achievable targets on the level of the Firm, the relevant business unit and the individual. The performance criteria do not provide any incentives for excessive risk-taking or the mis-selling of products and do not steer towards behaviour/actions that are not in the best interest of the clients. Performance criteria will always be in line with the business as well as the risk strategy, objectives, values and long-term interests of the Firm. Annual discretionary bonus awards are subject to deferrals and regular review and confirmation by the RemCo.
