Every once in a while I’ll come across a great fund that sort of flies under the radar.
For whatever reason it just doesn’t quite get the attention it deserves.
Passionate investors that I follow on Twitter will mention certain funds quite frequently that permeate my consciousness.
It creates a ripple effect where I’ll start thinking about those ones more often than I probably should be.
But that’s a good reminder for me to step back and do some of my own independent research more frequently.
With this in mind, I’d like to shine the spotlight upon a fascinating capital efficient mutual fund that combines a long US equity (50% exposure) and managed futures strategy (100% exposure).
The fund I’m referring to is none other than Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund.
Ticker MAFIX (I), MAFAX (A) and MAFCX (C).
Unlike other expanded canvas products that are still wet behind the ears, Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund has been compounding since 2018.
That always excites me because I have more data to play around with in terms of backtest scenarios.
Let’s check out how it has performed since inception.
Performance: Abbey Capital Multi Asset (MAFIX Mutual Fund)
We’ll compare MAFIX (since its inception) directly with an industry standard 60/40 portfolio as best represented by VBIAX.
MAFIX vs VBIAX Performance Summary
CAGR: 13.35% vs 7.20%
RISK: 11.84% vs 12.75%
BEST YEAR: 24.89% vs 21.79%
WORST YEAR: -4.13% vs -16.90%
MAX DRAWDOWN: -10.16% vs -20.78%
SHARPE RATIO: 1.01 vs 0.51
SORTINO RATIO: 1.87 vs 0.74
MARKET CORRELATION: 0.58 vs 0.99
The Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund has absolutely crushed a 60/40 portfolio from a returns meets risk standpoint since it was dropped into the frying pan.
Outstanding risk management with a worst year of only -4.13% versus -16.90% for the 60/40.
Its Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio and overal Market Correlation are highly attractive as well.
It’s simply bonkers that a 60/40 portfolio is considered default when a more adaptive strategy (such as MAFIX) is prepared for more challenging economic regimes.
What’s fascinating for me especially is just how well the 50/100 equities/managed futures combination performs from 2018 until the end of 2021.
It already was outmuscling the 60/40.
And then 2022 reared its ugly head.
And MAFIX with its adaptive strategies didn’t skip a beat whereas the 60/40 was ravaged.
Let’s dig a little deeper under the hood.

Abbey Capital: Managed Futures Specialists
Abbey Capital are managed futures and multi-strategy specialists based out of Dublin, Ireland!
When I noticed a few redheads in the photos on their homepage it kind of gave it away.
Who knows?
Maybe I can get a job!
I’ve at least got that going for me.
In all seriousness, they’re a firm with over 20 years of experience that now offer strategies to US investors.
Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund Overview, Holdings and Info
The investment case for “Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund” has been laid out succinctly by the folks over at Abbey Capital: (source: fund landing page)
“Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund:
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.
Multi-Manager Managed Futures Strategy:
Target exposure approximately 100% of the Fund’s net assets. Executed through managed account allocations to underlying managers.
Bi-directional exposure to over 120 markets across equity indices, commodities, bonds, interest rates and foreign exchange.
Managed Long US Equity Strategy:
Target exposure of approximately 50% of the Fund’s net assets. Executed using S&P 500 futures contracts for capital efficiency. Managed by Abbey Capital within defined thresholds.
Fixed Income Strategy:
Approximately 70% of the Fund’s net assets. Short duration US fixed income portfolio.
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.
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.”
Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund: Principal Investment Strategy
To better understand the process of how the fund operates, let’s turn our attention towards the prospectus where I’ve highlighted what I feel are the most salient parts and summarized the key points at the very bottom. (source: summary prospectus)
“Principal Investment Strategies:
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by allocating its assets among a “Managed Futures” strategy, a “Long U.S. Equity” strategy and a “Fixed Income” strategy.
The Managed Futures strategy will be achieved by the Fund investing in managed futures investments, including (i) options, (ii) futures, (iii) forwards, (iv) spot contracts, or (v) swaps, including total return swaps, each of which may be tied to (i) commodities, (ii) financial indices and instruments, (iii) foreign currencies, or (iv) equity indices (the “Futures Portfolio”).
The Managed Futures strategy will be achieved by the Fund investing a portion of its assets in ACMAF Onshore Series LLC, a wholly-owned and controlled Delaware series limited liability company (the “Onshore Subsidiary”), and the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in ACMAF Master Offshore Limited, a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary of the Fund organized under the acts of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Subsidiary”).
The Cayman Subsidiary will in turn invest all or substantially all of its assets in segregated portfolios of ACMAF Offshore SPC (the “SPC” and, together with the Onshore Subsidiary and the Cayman Subsidiary, the “Subsidiaries”), a wholly-owned and controlled segregated portfolio company incorporated under the acts of the Cayman Islands.
The Cayman Subsidiary will serve solely as an intermediate entity through which the Fund will invest in the SPC.
The Cayman Subsidiary makes no independent investment decisions and has no 4 investment or other discretion over the Fund’s investable assets.
The Adviser may allocate assets of the SPC and the Onshore Subsidiary to multiple Managed Futures portfolios (the “Segregated Portfolios”) that include investment styles or sub-strategies such as (i) trend following, (ii) discretionary, fundamentals based investing with a focus on macroeconomic analysis, (iii) strategies that pursue both fundamental and technical trading approaches, (iv) other specialized approaches to specific or individual market sectors such as equities, interest rates, metals, agricultural and soft commodities, and (v) systematic trading strategies which incorporate technical and fundamental variables.
The Managed Futures strategy investments are designed to achieve capital appreciation in the financial and commodities futures markets.
The Adviser intends to allocate a portion of the assets of the SPC and the Onshore Subsidiary to one or more Trading Advisers to manage in percentages determined at the discretion of the Adviser.
Each Trading Adviser will manage one or more of its own Segregated Portfolios.
All commodities futures and commodities-related investments will be made in the Segregated Portfolios of the SPC.
Each current Trading Adviser is registered with the CFTC as a Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”).
Trading Advisers that are not registered with the SEC as investment advisers provide advice only regarding matters that do not involve securities.
The trading strategies employ several different trading styles using different research and trading methodologies, in a wide range of global financial and commodity markets operating over multiple time frames.
Trading Advisers may use discretionary approaches aimed at identifying value investments and turning points in trends.
The Fund invests in U.S. and non-U.S. markets and in developed and emerging markets.
The Long U.S. Equity strategy will be achieved by the Adviser targeting an allocation of approximately 50% of the Fund’s total assets in a portfolio of one or more U.S. equity index futures (the “Equity Portfolio”).
The Adviser will monitor the percentage of the Fund’s total assets that form the Equity Portfolio on a daily basis.
The Adviser will establish ‘rebalancing thresholds’ so that if at any time the percentage of the Fund’s total assets invested in the Equity Portfolio is above or below the target allocation of approximately 50% by a specific amount, then the Adviser will seek to rebalance the Equity Portfolio back towards its target allocation of approximately 50%.
Such rebalancing thresholds will be determined by the Adviser and may be subject to change from time to time.
As part of the Long U.S. Equity strategy, the Fund may invest in all types of equity and equity-related securities, including without limitation exchange-traded and over-the-counter common and preferred stocks, futures, warrants, options, rights, convertible securities, sponsored and unsponsored depositary receipts and shares, trust certificates, participatory notes, limited partnership interests, and shares of other investment companies (including exchanged-traded funds (“ETFs”)) and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”).
The Fund may also participate as a purchaser in initial public offerings of securities (“IPO”), a company’s first offering of stock to the public.
The Fund defines United States companies as companies (i) that are organized under the laws of the United States; (ii) whose principal trading market is in a the United States; or (iii) that have a majority of their assets, or that derive a significant portion of their revenue or profits from businesses, investments or sales, within the United States.
The Fixed Income strategy invests the Fund’s assets primarily in investment grade fixed income securities (of all durations and maturities) in order to generate interest income and capital appreciation, which may add diversification to the returns generated by the Fund’s Managed Futures and Long U.S. Equity strategies.
The level of the Fund’s assets invested in the Fixed Income Strategy will be managed and rebalanced pursuant to thresholds determined by the Adviser, which may be subject to change from time to time.
In line with these thresholds, any proceeds of maturing fixed income securities will be substantially reinvested into additional fixed income securities.
To achieve its investment objective, the Fund’s Adviser will target approximately 100% exposure of the Fund’s net assets to Managed Futures strategy investments and approximately 50% exposure of the Fund’s net assets to Long U.S. Equity strategy investments.
The Fund’s remaining net assets will be allocated to the Fixed Income strategy investments.
As much of the trading within the Fund is in futures markets, the Fund is likely to have cash balances surplus to margin requirements.
The cash portfolio will be invested on a short-term, highly liquid, basis, to meet margin calls on the futures positions.
The Fund is “non-diversified” for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”), which means that the Fund may invest in fewer securities at any one time than a diversified fund.
The Fund may not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments.
The Fund’s investments in certain derivative instruments and its short selling activities involve the use of leverage.
Generally, the SPC invests primarily in commodity futures but it may also invest in financial futures, options, forwards, spot contracts and swap contracts, fixed income securities, pooled investment vehicles, including those that are not registered pursuant to the 1940 Act and other investments intended to serve as margin or collateral for the SPC’s derivative positions.
The Onshore Subsidiary only invests in financial futures, options, forwards, spot contracts and swap contracts, fixed income securities, pooled investment vehicles, including those that are not registered pursuant to the 1940 Act, and other investments intended to serve as margin or collateral for derivative positions.
The Fund invests in the SPC via the Cayman Subsidiary in order to gain exposure to the commodities markets within the limitations of the federal tax laws, rules and regulations that apply to regulated investment companies.
Unlike the Fund and the Onshore Subsidiary, the SPC may invest without limitation in commodity-linked derivatives.
The Fund complies with Section 8 and Section 18 of the 1940 Act, governing investment policies and capital structure and leverage, respectively, on an aggregate basis with the Subsidiaries.
The Subsidiaries also comply with Section 17 of the 1940 Act relating to affiliated transactions and custody.
In addition, to the extent applicable to the investment activities of the Subsidiaries, the Subsidiaries are subject to the same fundamental investment restrictions and will follow the same compliance policies and procedures as the Fund. Unlike the Fund, the Subsidiaries will not seek to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of Subtitle A, Chapter 1, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
The Fund is, directly or indirectly, the sole shareholder of each Subsidiary and does not expect shares of the Subsidiaries to be offered or sold to other investors.”

Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund (MAFIX) — 12-Question FAQ: Strategy, Use-Cases, Risks & Structure
What is MAFIX and what is it trying to achieve?
Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund combines ~50% long U.S. equity exposure with ~100% managed futures exposure, plus a short-duration fixed-income sleeve for collateral and income. The aim is a capital-efficient, multi-strategy, multi-manager portfolio that seeks attractive risk-adjusted returns and diversification across market regimes.
How does the “50/100” capital-efficient mix actually work?
The fund targets ~50% U.S. equity exposure (primarily via S&P 500 futures) and ~100% managed futures exposure (trend, macro/discretionary, and other systematic approaches) at the same time, using futures to overlay exposures on the same cash base—i.e., expanded canvas positioning.
What’s inside the managed futures sleeve?
A multi-manager program with bi-directional exposure to 120+ markets across equity indexes, commodities, bonds, interest rates, and FX. Styles include trend following, macro discretionary, hybrid fundamental/technical, sector specialists, and systematic models running across multiple time frames.
How is the U.S. equity sleeve implemented and maintained?
Abbey targets ~50% of total assets in U.S. equity index futures and monitors/rebalances to that target using defined thresholds. The sleeve is designed to provide durable, low-cost beta while freeing cash for the managed-futures program.
What role does the fixed-income sleeve play?
A short-duration, investment-grade fixed-income portfolio provides income, liquidity, and collateral for futures margin. Because much of the strategy uses futures, the fund often holds cash/short-term instruments to meet margin and rebalance needs.
How does MAFIX compare conceptually with a 60/40?
Unlike a static 60/40, MAFIX combines equities with a global managed-futures engine that can go long or short across asset classes. Historically this has offered lower correlation to stocks, potential crisis alpha, and shallower drawdowns—but also different tracking than traditional portfolios.
What are the main risks and trade-offs?
Futures/derivatives risk and leverage effects from overlays
Manager/model dispersion within the multi-manager sleeve
Tracking differences versus equity or 60/40 benchmarks
Equity concentration in the U.S. (investors must add non-U.S. equity elsewhere)
Higher fees than plain index funds due to multi-strategy complexity
How has regime behavior typically looked?
The managed-futures sleeve tends to help during persistent trends (including equity sell-offs or rate/commodity moves), while the equity sleeve participates in equity uptrends. The mix aims to be adaptive: seek participation in growth regimes while buffering diversified shocks when trends emerge outside equities.
Who might MAFIX be most suitable for?
Investors seeking a capital-efficient core or core-plus holding that blends equity growth with managed-futures diversification, and who accept deviations from traditional benchmarks in exchange for potentially smoother long-term outcomes.
How can MAFIX fit into a broader portfolio?
Common uses include:
Core diversifier replacing part of a 60/40
Alternatives sleeve anchor paired with global equity and bonds
Crisis-risk offset complementing concentrated equity or credit exposure
Allocation size depends on objectives; many investors combine it with international equity and other diversifiers.
What share classes, fees, AUM, and inception should I know?
Tickers include MAFIX (I), MAFAX (A), MAFCX (C). The Adjusted Expense Ratio (I) has been listed as ~1.79 in the materials you provided; AUM ~US$418.9M; inception 2018-04-11. Always verify current data on the fund’s site/prospectus before investing.
How is the structure set up behind the scenes?
To implement managed futures efficiently, the fund uses onshore and Cayman subsidiaries/SPC for commodity and financial futures, while keeping the registered fund in compliance with ’40 Act requirements. Managed-futures allocations are made to registered CTAs via segregated portfolios.
Nomadic Samuel Final Thoughts
Abbey Capital has created an incredible multi-strategy fund for investors to seriously consider.
I’ll take an expanded canvas long-equity strategy handcuffed to managed futures over a 60/40 portfolio any day, week, month or year!
The strategy has proven to be a winning formula since it was launched back in 2018.
Unfortunately, I’m unable to purchase US Mutual Funds as a Canadian!
Hence, I’ll have to wait patiently for an ETF to hopefully be developed sometime in the future offering that specific combination.
Anyhow, at this point it the review I’m interested in hearing from you!

3. Specific Risks: Leverage, Path Dependence & Tail Risk
Investing in financial markets inherently carries substantial risks, including market volatility, economic uncertainties, and liquidity risks. You must be fully aware that there is always the potential for partial or total loss of your principal investment. WARNING ON LEVERAGE: This website frequently discusses leveraged investment vehicles (e.g., 2x or 3x ETFs). The use of leverage significantly increases risk exposure. Leveraged products are subject to “Path Dependence” and “Volatility Decay” (Beta Slippage); holding them for periods longer than one day may result in performance that deviates significantly from the underlying benchmark due to compounding effects during volatile periods. WARNING ON ETNs & CREDIT RISK: If this website discusses Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs), be aware they carry Credit Risk of the issuing bank. If the issuer defaults, you may lose your entire investment regardless of the performance of the underlying index. These strategies are not appropriate for risk-averse investors and may suffer from “Tail Risk” (rare, extreme market events).

Another MAFIX con is I couldn’t find a place that will allow me to buy it with less than a million dollar inital investment. I think etrade.com was finally a place I found that let you, but then you have to pay fees to them for investing in mutual funds so I ended up not putting in money into it. The have other versions of it with higher fees and lower minimum, but I couldn’t find a good place to buy it and contacting the company that runs the fund was actually not helpful at all. You’d think they’d be able to direct me where to get it. I additionally heard about MAFIX from the guy that runs BLNDX because their strategy is very close to the same (with only $25k minimum and I think it was $500 minimum at my broker), and they recommend MAFIX if you wanted it to diversify away from all managed by one company.
