V. TPYF’s Risk Management Framework
TPYF goes beyond its obligations to ensure the security of its investments byactively monitoring Trivesta Investment. Trivesta Investment provides secured notes, forming the foundation of TPYF’s fixed-income structure. In turn, Trivesta Investment conducts trading activities under a structured arrangement, adhering to strict risk management protocols. TPYF’s Investment Committee oversees these trading activities through regular reporting and review to ensure compliance and alignment with investor objectives.
TPYF’s foundation lies in secured notes issued by Trivesta Investment, which makes the fund a fixed-income investment. While the fund benefits from Trivesta Investment’s trading strategies, these activities are not the direct source of investor returns. Instead, Trivesta Investment ensures the payment of a fixed rate of 15% per annum on secured notes, forming the basis for TPYF’s 10% annual distributions to investors. TPYF takes additional steps to monitor Trivesta Investment’s performance, ensuring that all trading activities are conducted transparently and with a disciplined approach to risk management.
VI. Market Outlook and Future Trends
EUR/USD
EUR/USD fell for a fourth straight session on Monday, trading near 1.1730 in Asia. The pair continues to lose ground as the US Dollar strengthens after last week’s Fed rate cut, with Chair Jerome Powell signalling no urgency for further moves and stressing a meeting-by-meeting approach. The Fed’s “dot plot” still points to two more cuts this year.Eurozone Consumer Confidence for September is expected at -15.4, slightly better than -15.5 previously. Meanwhile, the Euro faces headwinds from domestic unrest, with large protests in France against planned spending cuts. ECB’s Mario Centeno also noted that the “next move is still likely to be a rate cut,” citing persistent downside risks to inflation.
GBP/JPY
GBP/JPY extends its positive bias for a third day, staying near this week’s YTD high as Asia trade sees another push above the 200.00 psychological level ahead of a UK data dump. Domestic political uncertainty and a firmer risk tone weigh on the JPY, while doubts over the timing/pace of BoJ cuts, fading odds of an immediate BoE cut, and a softer USD support GBP. Technically, repeated failures to gain acceptance above 200.00 argue for waiting on a clean break of the YTD high near 200.35 before targeting 200.75, 201.00,and201.60. On pullbacks, support lies at 199.25 and 199.00; deeper dips should hold 198.40 (key pivot). A decisive break below 198.40 risks sub-198.00, then 197.35–197.30 and 197.00.
GBP/USD
The British Pound rose against the US Dollar on Thursday, with GBP/ USD rebounding to ~1.3540 from intraday lows near 1.3493 after a mixed US inflation print. August CPI climbed 0.4% MoM (vs 0.3% expected; 0.2% prior) on energy and shelter, while headline YoY stayed at 2.9% (vs 2.7% previously). Core CPI held at 0.3% MoM and 3.1% YoY, matching forecasts and July, reinforcing expectations of a 25 bp Fed cut next week. Dovish Fed signals, softer labor data, and weaker PPI also support easing. Markets see little case for a larger move: CME FedWatch shows 94% odds of a 25 bp September cut (up from 90%), and three cuts are still fully priced by end-2025. Attention now shifts to the BoE on September 18, which is expected to hold the Bank Rate at 4.00% after five cuts this year. A Fed-BoE policy divergence—easing versus on hold—could lend near-term support to GBP/USD via narrower rate differentials.
