CPO Services
Additional Information
Unique for an administrator, Marathon is registered with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”) and a member of the NFA. This allows Marathon to not only perform the role of fund administrator but also to act as a fund’s CPO and assume all of the responsibilities and duties of being the CPO for the fund that the CTA manages.
As a result, the CTAs that partner with Marathon do not need to be registered as a CPO and do not need to comply with the numerous rules and regulations that apply to such registrants; instead, the firm can focus its full efforts on growth and producing returns.
