Fund Description

The investment seeks investment result that corresponds generally, but is not necessarily identical, to the performance of the S&P GSCITM Total Return Index. The fund invests all of the Investing Pool’s assets in long positions in CERFs and post margin in the form of cash or Short-Term Securities to collateralize the CERF positions. The investing pool holds long positions in CERFs, which are futures contracts listed on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, or CME, whose settlement at expiration is based on the value of the S&P GSCI™ Excess Return Index, or S&P GSCI-ER, at that time.
