Galleon Forex System

Advantages

Galleon Strategic Management LTD, provides investors with the opportunity to participate in the global foreign exchange markets. FX markets add a level of diversification not found in the typical stocks-and-bonds investment portfolio. Historically, FX markets are non-correlated to stocks and bonds, which means that their addition will create a more well-rounded, properly balanced portfolio.

Accounts that use Electronically generated signals and order execution offer a wide variety of advantages for the average investor. The list below explores why a Galleon system facilitated trading account may be right for you.

Ability to Profit in Rising or Declining Markets

The performance of a System Managed Forex Account in one's portfolio has traditionally been non-correlated with that of traditional equity and fixed-income investments. Unlike equity and fixed-income managers, a System Managed Forex Account can employ short-term, mid-term and long-term positions in a portfolio in order to profit under any market conditions.

Funds Remain Segregated in Your Own Name

Such are discretionary managed accounts. This means that the account and funds remain in your name, and with your approval and system selection Galleon activates the automation of trades, based upon a unique trading model, directly onto your account. Your money is deposited with a third party Bank or Broker (segregated account). We will not accept custody of your funds or securities. We have negotiated competitive spreads on all trades with our counter-parties, so the account is not burdened by excessive dealing costs.

All you need to do is open an account at one of the banks or brokerage firms that we work with and grant us a "Limited Power of Attorney". The "Limited Power of Attorney" authorizes our robot software to direct any system  trades into that account, but does not authorize us to withdraw funds from your account.

Tax advantages of managed accounts over mutual funds

When you own shares of a mutual fund, you own a fractional share of the mutual fund's total assets. Because of this, you are also responsible for a fractional share of the fund's capital gains tax liabilities -- this means that you can pay taxes on gains that were made before you purchased the fund. With an electronically facilitated trading account, you own the account and, therefore, pay taxes (if any) only on your own gains.

Liquidity and Lower Transaction Costs

Size can hinder a fund's performance in the equities and futures market, where liquidity is limited. But the currency market is the choice market for large hedge funds because it trades $1.4 trillion daily and can absorb volumes that dwarf other markets' capacities.

Experience Working for You

From our financial market experience, we have found that few individuals tend to have the training, skill, patience or inclination to trade their own forex accounts successfully. An electronically traded system account may suit you if you do not have the time or the desire to manage your money yourself, although a self selection of system style (either conservative or moderate) does give you a certain amount of participation with your own account. A System Managed Forex Account would also be appropriate if you wish to diversify from your trading methodology. You will receive all the benefits of working with our experienced system designers without taking any of the trouble or time to make the trades yourself.

Global Diversification

The performance of equity and fixed-income investments in one country is often highly correlated to the performance of equity and fixed-income investments in other countries. As a result, global portfolios composed solely of such investments lack full diversification even if they are geographically dispersed. A System traded Forex Account gives you access beyond these markets, providing more complete diversification and a reduction in portfolio risk.

Risk Control for Peace of Mind

An account that incorporates the Galleon Facilitated Trading System has a disciplined risk control procedure to achieve the smoothest possible growth in your account. You are therefore able to achieve a high rate of return with a level of risk control not possible with traditional "buy and hold" investments. With a managed funds account, you can distance yourself from the stress of trading, yet expect to benefit from the opportunities for profit. Please read the risk disclosure statement on this website and on your account opening documentation.

Reduce Portfolio Risk While Enhancing Returns

When combined with an existing portfolio of equity and fixed-income instruments, a well conceived forex System traded through facilitated electronic means reduces volatility and risk while enhancing long-term returns.
