  • The path we all took to become CTA fund managers
  • The role these strategies can and should play in portfolios
  • How to position them within a broader asset allocation framework
  • ‘Closet betas’ vs true diversifiers
  • Are CTAs necessarily synonymous with trend following?
  • The many faces of trend following
  • ‘Lumpy’ returns and prolonged winters
  • The role central banks have played in reducing outcome dispersion across asset classes
  • Behavioral hurdles and challenges
  • Going beyond trend and the tradeoffs associated with stacking other strategies
