MANAGED FUTURES CTA SERVICE
ITG Capital Management provides professional acount management service for Futures Clients.
Managed Futures are an alternative investment asset class that allows investors to simultaneously participate in multiple global market sectors such as currencies, energies, metals, short and long term interest rates, domestic and international stock indices, and traditional commodities.
Managed Futures can be a valuable part of an overall asset allocation plan; their purpose is to add portfolio diversification, potentially reduce overall portfolio volatility, and potentially achieve higher overall portfolio performance over time when compared to traditional investment portfolios alone. A study by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) concluded that a portfolio with 20% Managed Futures has less risk than a portfolio of Stocks and Bonds alone. The major benefits of using managed futures are as follows: diversification beyond stocks and bonds, the potential for higher portfolio returns, potentially reduced portfolio volatility risk, access to broader market opportunities, potential to profit in any economic condition, professional management, and portfolio liquidity.

We manage client accounts using our proprietary programs built on the Compound Risk Reinvestment approach—designed to maximize returns while maintaining consistent risk based on your initial capital. Nominal account sizes start at $100/$20K, with minimum notional accounts from $20/$4K. New to investing? Start with our E-micro program for a few months to experience the strategy before allocating more capital.
A Managed Futures Account is a trading account where professional Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), like ITG Capital Management, manage the trading decisions on your behalf, using strategies in futures, options, and spreads across various markets.
You can open a managed account by completing an application through our clearing partner, Straits Financial, and signing a Limited Power of Attorney (LPOA) authorizing ITG Capital Management to trade on your behalf.
The minimum initial investment for a managed account is typically $100,000 for e-mini and $20,000 for e-micro programs. We accept notionally funded account with only 20% funding levels of nominal account size, or $20,000 for e-mini and only $4,000 for e-micro programs.
ITG Capital Management charges a performance-based fee, generally 20% of net new profits, in line with industry standards. There are also management fees charged monthly in the amount of 1/12 of 2% of nominal account size. For e-micro program it is only $33.00 a month. This fees applied to cover operational expenses regardless of net profit on client’s account.
Even though the programs we offer designed as a long term investment programs with 12 months minimum agreement, you can request a withdrawal at any time. However, it’s recommended to coordinate withdrawals at the end of the monthly trading cycle to avoid disrupting strategy performance.
We trade U.S. exchange-listed futures and options, including indices, commodities (like crude oil, gold, and grains), interest rates, and currencies. We may also use futures spreads and volatility strategies depending on market conditions. At this time we offer two trading programs trading E-mini and E-micro S&P 500 futures.
