Cross-Asset Relative-Value · Cayman Islands Master Fund

Audited by KPMG Cayman Islands · Managed by Oriental Holdings LLC, a Wyoming company
Cayman master fund

Audited by KPMG Cayman Islands.
Capital preservation
No leverage. Maximum drawdown of 2% of deposited capital.
Technology-driven

Strategy
One discipline. Six markets.
We arbitrage mispricings wherever they persist — a single relative-value framework applied across six asset classes.
Rates
Cash-futures basis, curve trades, and swap-spread relative value.
Commodities & Energy
Calendar spreads and cash-futures basis across energy and metals.
Equity Indices
Index arbitrage (cash vs. futures) and ETF-vs-futures basis.
Credit
CDS-bond basis and index-vs-single-name relative value.
Volatility
Dispersion and variance-swap-versus-realized spreads.
Approach
A process you can underwrite.
-
01
Identify
Detect mispricings where price diverges from fundamental value.
-
02
Size
Position to a drawdown budget — never to conviction.
-
03
Manage
Real-time monitoring with pre-committed exit and divergence limits.
-
04
Review
Independent oversight of every book, regardless of P&L.
Risk
A deterministic risk framework.
Risk is measured by a deterministic analytics stack — not opinion, and never by a probabilistic model in the execution path.
Value at Risk
Parametric, historical, Monte Carlo, and EWMA.
Monte Carlo
Thousands of paths across multiple horizons and distributions.
Stress testing
COVID, 2008, rate shocks, inflation, geopolitical, and custom scenarios.
Correlation
Concentration, diversification, and rolling correlation analysis.
Technology
Built on a deterministic kernel.
The firm's investment system separates intelligence from execution: a deterministic kernel owns every order, position, and risk limit, while AI operates strictly at the edges — proposing, never executing.
Deterministic kernel
Orders, positions, P&L, and risk limits run through provably reproducible logic.
Event-sourced ledger
An append-only, tamper-evident audit trail — every decision is replayable.
AI at the edges
Models research and propose; the kernel decides and executes.
Leadership
The people behind the process.
Clive Aldred
President
Industry veteran and serial entrepreneur. A former Senior IT Analyst at KPMG (London Region, UK) and former Chairman of Starcomm Limited, Clive earned a Master's in AI in 1985 — decades before the field entered the mainstream — and authored the chapter "Workflow: Automation of the Desktop" in Computer Support for Co-operative Work (Kathy Spurr, ed., John Wiley & Sons, 1994, ISBN 0471951412), anticipating the workflow automation behind today's autonomous agents. He leads the firm's cross-asset strategy and its deterministic, technology-driven approach.
