John W. Henry and Vision Financial Markets have introduced a managed futures account programme, JWH Vision.
The new programme launched on 1 September 2009 and is available exclusively through Vision Financial Markets.
JWH Vision is composed of 12 diverse markets listed at a CME Group exchange, which include futures on metals, currencies, interest rates, stock indexes, energies, livestock and the grain sectors.
In addition to the trend-following component used on the diversified portfolio, the programme will also include an equity index overlay component that has historically had a low correlation to the trend following approach. This individually managed account structure will be offered beginning at USD250,000.
"The new JWH Vision is the right product at the right time. The events of 2008 and ongoing financial crisis continue to reinforce our core tenet that no one can predict the future and the inclusion of a disciplined and systematic approach to investing in a truly diversified set of markets is a necessary component of every investment portfolio," says Kenneth S. Webster, president and chief operating officer, John W. Henry.
"Vision is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the John W. Henry & Company, Inc, a firm built on the fundamental principle of disciplined trend following managed futures investing," says Howard Rothman, president, Vision Financial Markets. "We at Vision believe that the addition of the JWH Vision programme to our current product offerings provides individuals and institutions the opportunity to invest with a legendary advisor and benefit from JWH’s 27 years of experience and dedication to a non-predictive and systematic approach to managed futures investing."
