UBS OCONNOR LLC


UBS O’Connor LLC (“O’Connor”, or "we"), is a wholly-owned subsidiary of UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc., and is part of the UBS Asset Management Division ("UBS AM"). UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of UBS Americas Inc. which is owned by UBS Americas Holding LLC, which in turn is owned by UBS AG, and ultimately by UBS Group AG ("UBS"), a publically traded company. O’Connor was established in January 2000 when a proprietary trading group within UBS’ Investment Bank Division was transferred to what is now known as UBS AM, establishing a newly formed investment management entity. O’Connor has been registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an investment adviser since January 2000.

O'Connor primarily provides discretionary and non-discretionary investment advisory services to various types of pooled investment vehicles, (which may or may not be exempt from registration), pension or profit sharing plans, and institutional separately managed accounts ("SMAs") (and together "Clients"). Specific investment objectives, strategies, risks, fees and expenses are described in detail in each Client's investment management agreement, confidential offering memorandum and/or other governing documents (each as applicable, and collectively, "Governing Documents"). Generally speaking, O'Connor has wide latitude in the investments in which it may offer advice on, including, but not limited to: (1) exchange-listed securities, securities traded over-the-counter, privately-placed securities and foreign issues; (2) warrants and rights; (3) debt securities issued by corporations, supranationals and financial institutions; (4) commercial paper and other money-market instruments; (5) certificates of deposit; (6) municipal securities; (7) mutual fund shares, including closed-end and exchange-traded funds ("ETF"); (8) government and government sponsored enterprises securities; (9) time deposits maintained inside or outside the U.S., held in book-entry form by the custodian of the Client's assets; (10) foreign government and foreign government agency securities; (11) repurchase agreements; (12) bank loans and loan participations; (13) master notes; (14) mortgages (agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities and real estate); (15) convertible securities, distressed debt, preferred stock, and pass-through participation certificates in pools of real estate mortgages, credit card receivables, and auto loan receivables (asset- backed securities); (16) other loans; (17) collateralized debt obligations or collateralized loan obligations ("CLO"); (18) foreign exchange ("FX") commodities and currencies; (19) inflation protected securities; (20) depositary receipts; (21) various derivative instruments, including: options contracts on securities and commodities, futures contracts, forward and spot currency contracts, swaps (including, but not limited to interest rate swaps, contracts for difference, total return swaps, portfolio swaps, credit default swaps ("CDS") and swaps on indices), participation notes, structured notes and various types of agency and non- agency asset-backed securities, (22) other pooled investment vehicles, (23) special purpose acquisition vehicles ("SPAC"), and; (24) other credit related instruments. O'Connor adheres to global policies that require compliance with relevant regulatory and legal requirements. An example of such a requirement would be sanctions, which are any measure or restriction (including those often referred to as embargoes), taken by one or more countries, their respective government agencies or by an international organization, which is aimed at restricting dealings of any kind with or involving another country, specific persons, legal entities, organizations or goods. O'Connor (or UBS) may restrict business activities with certain countries, governments, government controlled entities, territories or persons. In some cases, business activities are expressly prohibited, where other cases may require pre-approval from regional compliance personnel before any business activity can be considered. In addition, O'Connor has policies in place that prohibit securities of certain companies to be included in actively managed retail or institutional funds and in discretionary mandates. Such prohibitions include, but are not limited to, a ban on companies involved in the development, production or purchase of cluster munitions and anti-personnel mines, pursuant to the Swiss federal Act on War Materials.

O'Connor is a part of a global financial services firm and may be precluded from acquiring or selling certain securities or investments on behalf of itself and Clients as a result of inside information, conflicts of interests or other applicable laws or regulations. O'Connor is subject to certain provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act (“BHCA”) by reason of being owned by a foreign bank (UBS). The BHCA may in certain circumstances limit our Client's ownership of stock issued by other U.S. companies and other bank holding companies that are subject to the BHCA. O'Connor Client accounts generally will not be able to invest in securities solely issued by UBS (except for accounts following a passive or quantitative strategy). Similarly, other state and federal laws may restrict our Client's aggregate ownership of stock issued by certain companies. As a result of these possible limitations, O'Connor may not be able to purchase securities that our models would otherwise indicate that we should, and therefore your account would not participate in the "upside" of such purchase (if any).

As of December 31, 2019, O'Connor's net assets under management were $5,076,759,977 of which $4,969,651,488 was managed on a discretionary basis and $107,108,489 was managed on a non- discretionary basis. please register to get more info
