PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business. Ceres Abingdon L.P. (formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.) (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on November 8, 2005, under the partnership laws of the State of New York, to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures, option, swap and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, indices, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs. The Partnership commenced trading on February 1, 2007. The commodity interests that are indirectly traded by the Partnership through its investment in CMF Winton Master L.P. (the “Master”) are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The General Partner (as defined below) may also determine to invest up to all of the Master’s assets (directly or indirectly through its investment in the Master) in United States (“U.S.”) Treasury bills and/or money market mutual funds, including money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates. The Partnership privately and continuously offers redeemable units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership (“Redeemable Units”) to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of Redeemable Units that may be sold by the Partnership.

Subscriptions of additional Redeemable Units and additional general partner contributions and redemptions of Redeemable Units for the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015~~2016 are reported in the Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. As of January 1, 2017, the General Partner became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Domestic Holdings, Inc. (“MSD Holdings”). MSD Holdings is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley is a publicly held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Morgan Stanley is engaged in various financial services and other businesses. Prior to January 1, 2017, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC (“MSSB Holdings”). ~~Prior~~As toof ~~June~~December 2831, ~~2013~~2018, ~~Morgan~~all ~~Stanley indirectly owned a majority equity interest in MSSB Holdings and Citigroup Inc. indirectly owned a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. All~~ trading decisions for the Partnership are made by Winton Capital Management Limited (the “Advisor”).

~~Effective~~During ~~September~~the years ended December 2131, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Partnership’s/Master’s ~~changed~~commodity ~~its~~broker ~~name~~was ~~from~~Morgan ~~Managed~~Stanley & ~~Futures~~Co. ~~Premier~~LLC ~~Abingdon~~(“MS&Co.”), La registered futures commission merchant.P JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. to(“JPMorgan”) ~~Ceres~~was also a foreign exchange forward ~~Abingdon~~contract Lcounterparty for the Master.P The Partnership and the Master deposited a portion of their cash in non-trading bank accounts at JPMorgan.

During the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, the Partnership’s/Master’s commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant. JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. (“JPMorgan”) was also a foreign exchange forward counterparty for the Master. During prior periods included in this report, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”) also served as a commodity broker. The Partnership and the Master also deposit a portion of their cash in non-trading accounts at JPMorgan.

On February 1, 2007, the Partnership allocated substantially all of its capital to the Master, a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York, having the same investment objective as the Partnership. The Master permits accounts managed by the Advisor using the Winton Futures Program (formerly, the Winton Diversified Program, as applied without equities), the Advisor’s proprietary, systematic trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of the Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of the Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this master/feeder structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in the Master are approximately the same as if the Partnership traded directly, and redemption rights are not affected. The General Partner and the Advisor agreed that the Advisor will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to the Advisor at a level that is up to 1.5 times the amount of assets allocated.

On April 1, 2011, the Partnership began offering “Class A” Redeemable Units, “Class D” Redeemable Units and “Class Z” Redeemable Units pursuant to the offering memorandum. All Redeemable Units issued prior to April 1, 2011 were deemed Class A Redeemable Units. The rights, liabilities, risks, and fees associated with investment in the Class A Redeemable Units did not change. “Class D” Redeemable Units and “Class Z” Redeemable Units were first issued on April 1, 2011 and August 1, 2011, respectively. Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units will each be referred to as a “Class” and collectively referred to as the “Classes.” The Class of Redeemable Units that a limited partner receives upon a subscription will generally depend upon the amount invested in the Partnership or the status of the limited partner, although the General Partner may determine to offer any Class of Redeemable Units to investors at its discretion. Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units are available to taxable U.S. individuals and institutions, U.S. tax exempt individuals and institutions and non-U.S. investors. Class Z Redeemable Units are offered to limited partners who receive advisory services from Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (doing business as Morgan Stanley Wealth Management) (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”) and certain employees of Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries (and their family members). Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units, and Class Z Redeemable Units are identical, except that Class D Redeemable Units are subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee equal to 1/12 of 0.75% (a 0.75% annual rate) of the net assets of Class D as of the end of each month, which differs from the Class A monthly ongoing selling agent fee of 1/12 of 2% (a 2% annual rate) of the net assets of Class A as of the end of each month. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee.

On July 12, 2017, the Master entered into certain agreements with JPMorgan in connection with trading in forward foreign currency contracts on behalf of the Master and, indirectly, the Partnership. These agreements include a foreign exchange and bullion authorization agreement (“FX Agreement”), an International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. master agreement (“Master Agreement”), a schedule to the Master Agreement, a 2016 credit support annex for variation margin to the schedule and an institutional account agreement. Under the FX Agreement, JPMorgan charges a fee on the aggregate foreign currency transactions entered into on behalf of the Master during a month.

For the period January 1, ~~2017~~2018 through December 31, ~~2017~~2018, the approximate average market sector distribution for the Partnership was as follows:

LOGO

~~Prior~~As ~~to the close~~ of ~~business~~ on December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and asprior to the close of business on December 31, ~~2016~~2017, the Partnership owned approximately 5253.69% and 4552.86% of the Master, respectively. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Master.

The Master’s trading of exchange-traded futures, forward, swap and option contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on U.S. commodity exchanges and foreign commodity exchanges. ~~During~~The ~~the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, the~~ Master ~~engaged~~engages in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with MS&Co. ~~During prior periods included in this report, the Master also engaged in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with CGM.~~

The General Partner and each limited partner of the Partnership share in the profits and losses of the Partnership, in proportion to the amount of Partnership interest owned by each, except that no limited partner is liable for obligations of the Partnership in excess of its capital contribution and profits, if any, net of distributions and losses, if any.

The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2025; when the net asset value per Redeemable Unit for any Class decreases to less than $400 as of the close of business on any business day; or under other certain circumstances as set forth in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, as amended and restated from time to time (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”). In addition, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, cause the Partnership to dissolve if the Partnership’s aggregate net assets decline to less than $1,000,000.

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership, including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly fee ( “General Partner fee”) in return for its services to the Partnership equal to 1/12 of 1% (1% per year) of month-end net assets per Class, for each outstanding Class. Prior to October 1, 2014, the Partnership paid the General Partner a General Partner fee equal to 1/24 of 1% (0.5% per year) of month-end net assets per Class, for each outstanding Class. Month-end net assets per Class, for the purpose of calculating the General Partner fee, are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, incentive fee accrual, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. This fee may be increased or decreased at the discretion of the General Partner.

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor, a registered commodity trading advisor. The Management Agreement provides that the Advisor has sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor by the General Partner. The Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.5% (1.5% per year) of month-end net assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, allocated to the Advisor. Month-end net assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, for the purpose of calculating management fees are net assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, incentive fee accrual, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

In addition, the Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by the Advisor for the Partnership during each calendar quarter. The Advisor’s incentive fee will be allocated proportionally to each Class based on the net asset value of the respective Class. The Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon sufficient notice by either party.

Prior to and during part of the fourth quarter of 2013, the Partnership was party to a customer agreement with CGM (the “CGM Customer Agreement”). During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Partnership entered into a customer agreement with MS&Co. (the “MS&Co. Customer Agreement”) and a selling agent agreement with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (as amended, the “Selling Agreement”). The Partnership has terminated the CGM Customer Agreement.

~~Under~~The ~~the CGM Customer Agreement, the~~ Partnership ~~paid~~has ~~CGM~~entered ainto monthly brokerage fee equal to (i) 4.5% per year of month- end net assets for Class A Redeemable Units, (ii) 1.875% per year of month-end net assets for Class D Redeemable Units and (iii) 1.125% per year of month-end net assets for Class Z Redeemable Units, in each case in lieu of brokerage fees on a ~~per~~Customer ~~trade~~agreement ~~basis.~~with Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating brokerage fees were net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s brokerage fees, incentive fee accrual, the monthly management fee, the General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such monthMS&Co. ~~The Partnership paid exchange, service, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association~~ (~~“NFA”) fees (collectively,~~ the “~~CGM clearing fees”) through its investment in the Master~~MS&Co. ~~CGM clearing fees were allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of the Master. During the term of the CGM~~ Customer Agreement, all of the Partnership’s assets that were not held in the Master’s accounts at CGM were deposited in the Partnership’s account at CGM. The Partnership’s cash was deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) ~~regulations.~~ ~~CGM~~and ~~paid the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at~~ a ~~30-day~~selling ~~U.S.~~agreement ~~Treasury~~with ~~bill~~Morgan ~~rate~~Stanley ~~determined~~Wealth ~~weekly~~Management by CGM based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing 30 days from the date on which such weekly rate is determined.

Under the MS&Co. Customer Agreement and the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement, the Partnership pays trading fees and, where applicable, execution of transactions, as well as exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and ~~NFA~~National ~~fees~~Futures ~~(collectively,~~Association ~~the~~ (“~~MS&Co. clearing fees~~NFA”) ~~and together with the CGM clearing~~ fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”) through its investment in the Master. ~~MS&Co.~~The clearing fees are allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of the Master. ~~MS&Co.~~The clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. All of the Partnership’s assets available for trading in commodity interests not held in the Master’s accounts at MS&Co. and JPMorgan are deposited in the Partnership’s account at MS&Co. ~~The~~During prior periods included in this report, the Partnership and the Master also ~~deposit~~deposited a portion of their cash in non-trading bank accounts at JPMorgan. The Partnership’s cash deposited with MS&Co. is held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. MS&Co. has agreed to pay the Partnership monthly interest on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at MS&Co. at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. Prior to November 1, 2017, MS&Co. paid the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. The MS&Co. Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

Under the Selling Agreement with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, the Partnership pays Morgan Stanley Wealth Management a monthly ongoing selling agent fee. Prior to April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was paid at a rate equal to (i) 4.5% per year of month-end net assets for Class A Redeemable Units, (ii) 1.875% per year of month-end net assets for Class D Redeemable Units and (iii) 1.125% per year of month-end net assets for Class Z Redeemable Units. Effective April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was reduced to (i) 2.5% per year of month-end net assets for Class A Redeemable Units, (ii) 1.25% per year of month-end net assets for Class D Redeemable Units and (iii) 0.5% per year of month-end net assets for Class Z Redeemable Units. Effective October 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was (i) reduced to 2.0% per year of month-end net assets for Class A Redeemable Units, (ii) reduced to 0.75% per year of month-end net assets for Class D Redeemable Units and (iii) eliminated for Class Z Redeemable Units. The Partnership may pay an ongoing selling agent fee to other properly registered and/or licensed selling agents who sell Redeemable Units, and such additional selling agents may share all or a substantial portion of such fees with their properly registered or exempted financial advisors who have sold Redeemable Units. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating ongoing selling agent fees are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s ongoing selling agent fee, management fee, the incentive fee accrued, the General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

A limited partner in the Master may withdraw all or part of its capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from the Master as of the end of any month (the “Redemption Date”) after a request has been made to the General Partner at least three days in advance of the Redemption Date. Such withdrawals are classified as a liability when the limited partner in the Master elects to redeem and informs the Master.

In July 2015, the General Partner delegated certain administrative functions to SS&C Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, currently doing business as SS&C GlobeOp (the “Administrator”). Pursuant to a master services agreement, the Administrator furnishes certain administrative, accounting, regulatory reporting, tax and other services as agreed from time to time. In addition, the Administrator maintains certain books and records of the Partnership. The cost of retaining the Administrator is allocated among the pools operated by the General Partner, including the Partnership.

(b) Financial Information about Segments. The Partnership’s business consists of only one segment, speculative trading of commodity interests. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. The Partnership’s net income (loss) from operations for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, 2016, ~~2015,~~ ~~2014~~2015 and ~~2013~~2014 is set forth under “Item 6. Selected Financial Data.” The Partnership’s Capital as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018 was $~~207~~183,~~686~~117,~~502~~959.

(i) through (xii) — Not applicable.

(xiii) — The Partnership has no employees.

(d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services or own any long-lived assets, and therefore this item is not applicable.

(e) Available Information. The Partnership does not have an internet address. The Partnership will provide paper copies of its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to these reports free of charge upon request.

(g) Enforceability of Civil Liabilities Against Foreign Persons. Not applicable.

(h) Smaller Reporting Companies. Not applicable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As a result of leverage, small changes in the price of the Partnership’s positions may result in major losses.

The trading of commodity interests is speculative, volatile and involves a high degree of leverage. A small change in the market price of a commodity interest contract can produce major losses for the Partnership, through its investment in the Master. Market prices can be influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events, weather and climate conditions, insects and plant disease, purchases and sales by foreign countries and changing interest rates.

An investor may lose all of its investment.

Due to the speculative nature of trading commodity interests, an investor could lose all of its investment in the Partnership.

The Partnership will pay substantial fees and expenses regardless of profitability.

Regardless of its trading performance, the Partnership will incur fees and expenses, including but not limited to trading and transaction fees, ongoing selling agent fees, General Partner fees and management fees.

An investor’s ability to redeem Redeemable Units is limited.

An investor’s ability to redeem Redeemable Units is limited, and no market exists for the Redeemable Units.

Conflicts of interest exist.

The Partnership is subject to numerous conflicts of interest including those that arise from the facts that:

The General Partner and the Partnership’s/Master’s commodity broker are affiliates;

The Advisor, the Partnership’s/Master’s commodity broker, the General Partner and their respective principals and affiliates may trade in commodity interests for their own accounts;

An investor’s financial advisor will receive ongoing compensation for providing services to the investor’s account with respect to Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units; and

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership and/or the Master, may purchase money market mutual fund shares from mutual funds affiliated and/or unaffiliated with the General Partner.

Investing in Redeemable Units might not provide the desired diversification of an investor’s overall portfolio.

One of the Partnership’s objectives is to add an element of diversification to a traditional stock and bond portfolio, but any benefit of portfolio diversification is dependent upon the Partnership achieving positive returns and such returns being independent of stock and bond market returns.

Past performance is no assurance of future results.

The Advisor’s trading strategies may not perform as they have performed in the past. The Advisor has from time to time incurred substantial losses in trading on behalf of clients.

An investor’s tax liability may exceed cash distributions.

Investors are taxed on their share of the Partnership’s income, even though the Partnership does not intend to make any distributions.

Regulatory changes could restrict the Partnership’s operations and increase its operational costs.

Regulatory changes could adversely affect the Partnership by restricting its markets or activities, limiting its trading and/or increasing the costs or taxes to which investors are subject. Pursuant to the mandate of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law on July 21, 2010, the CFTC and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) have promulgated rules to regulate swap dealers and to mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements and continue to promulgate rules regarding capital and margin requirements to require that certain swaps be traded on an exchange or a swap execution facility and to require that derivatives (such as those traded by the Partnership) be moved into central clearinghouses. The CFTC and the prudential regulators that oversee swap dealers have adopted rules regarding margin requirements for certain derivatives. In addition, the CFTC and such prudential regulators have proposed or adopted, respectively, rules regarding capital requirements for swap dealers. These rules may negatively impact the manner in which swap contracts are traded and/or settled, increase the costs of such trades, and limit trading by speculators (such as the Partnership) in futures and over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets.

Speculative position and trading limits may reduce profitability.

The CFTC and U.S. exchanges have established “speculative position limits” on the maximum net long or net short positions which any person or a group of persons may hold or control in particular futures and options on futures and swaps that perform a significant price discovery function. Most exchanges also limit the amount of fluctuation in commodity futures contract prices on a single trading day. The Advisor believes that established speculative position and trading limits will not have a materially adverse effect on trading for the Partnership. The trading instructions of the Advisor may have to be modified, and positions held indirectly by the Partnership through its investment in the Master may have to be liquidated in order to avoid exceeding these limits. Such modification or liquidation could adversely affect the operations and profitability of the Partnership by increasing transaction costs to liquidate positions and limiting potential profits on the liquidated positions.

In December 2016, the CFTC re-proposed new rules regarding speculative position limits, replacing a prior proposal from November 2013. These rules, if adopted in substantially the same form, will impose position limits on certain futures and option contracts and physical commodity swaps that are “economically equivalent” to such contracts. If enacted, these rules could have an adverse effect on the Advisor’s trading for the Partnership/Master.

The General Partner, the Partnership and its Service Providers and their Respective Operations Are Potentially Vulnerable to Cyber-Security Attacks or Incidents.

Like other business enterprises, the use of the internet and other electronic media and technology exposes the General Partner, the Partnership and its service providers, and their respective operations, to potential risks from cyber-security attacks or incidents (collectively, “cyber events”). Cyber events may include, for example, unauthorized access to systems, networks or devices, infection from computer viruses or other malicious software code, mishandling or misuse of information and attacks which shut down, disable, slow or otherwise disrupt operations, business processes or website access or functionality. In addition to intentional cyber events, unintentional cyber events can occur. Unintentional cyber events may include, for example, the inadvertent release of confidential information, the mishandling or misuse of information and/or technological limitations or hardware failures (in the markets or otherwise) that constrain the Partnership’s and the Master’s ability to gather, process and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption.

Any cyber event could adversely affect the Partnership’s business, financial condition or results of operations and cause the Partnership to incur financial loss and expense, as well as face exposure to regulatory penalties or legal claims, reputational damage and additional costs associated with corrective measures. A cyber-security breach could also jeopardize a limited partner’s personal, confidential, proprietary or other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, the General Partner’s or a service provider’s computer systems. A cyber event may cause the Partnership or its service providers to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption, lose operational capacity (such as, for example, the loss of the ability to process transactions, calculate the Partnership’s net asset value, or allow investors to transact business) and/or fail to comply with applicable privacy and other laws. Among other potentially harmful effects, cyber events also may result in theft, unauthorized monitoring and failures in the physical infrastructure or operating systems that support the Partnership or its service providers.

The nature of malicious cyber-attacks is becoming increasingly sophisticated and neither the General Partner nor the Partnership can control the cyber systems and cyber-security systems of the Advisor or other third-party service providers.

Tax Laws Are Subject To Change at Any Time. Tax laws and court and IRS interpretations thereof are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law and is generally effective after December 31, 2017. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act makes significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax rules for taxation of individuals and corporations, including, in the case of individuals, reducing the top federal income tax rate to 37%, and eliminating or limiting various deductions, including capping the deduction for state and local taxes at $10,000 per year. Most of the changes applicable to individuals are temporary and apply only to taxable ~~years~~ years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026. For corporations, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduces the top corporate income tax rate to 21%.

The Partnership does not anticipate that a limited partner’s share of income from the Partnership will be eligible for the 20% deduction established by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act for qualified business income. However, in certain limited circumstances unlikely to apply to the Partnership, a portion of a limited partner’s gain upon a taxable disposition of an interest in the Partnership or a complete withdrawal may be eligible for the deduction.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act makes numerous other large and small changes to the federal income tax rules that may affect the Partnership’s investors and may directly or indirectly affect the Partnership. Moreover, Congressional leaders have recognized that the process of adopting extensive tax legislation in a short amount of time without hearings and substantial time for review is likely to have led to drafting errors, issues needing clarification, and unintended consequences that will have to be reviewed in subsequent tax legislation. At this point, it is not clear when Congress will address these issues or when the Internal Revenue Service will issue administrative guidance on the changes made in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Prospective investors are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and any other regulatory or administrative developments and proposals, and their potential effects on them based on their unique circumstances.

Item 2. Properties.

The Partnership does not own or lease any properties. The General Partner operates out of facilities provided by Morgan Stanley and/or one of its subsidiaries.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

This section describes the major pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which MS&Co. or its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their property is subject. There are no material legal proceedings pending against the Partnership or the General Partner.

On June 1, 2011, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. As a result of that conversion, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated is now named Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”).

MS&Co. is a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, a Delaware holding company. Morgan Stanley files periodic reports with the SEC as required by the Exchange Act, which include current descriptions of material litigation and material proceedings and investigations, if any, by governmental and/or regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations concerning Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries, including MS&Co. As a consolidated subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, MS&Co. does not file its own periodic reports with the SEC that contain descriptions of material litigation, proceedings and investigations. As a result, please refer to the “Legal Proceedings” section of Morgan Stanley’s SEC 10-K filings for 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, ~~2014,~~ and ~~2013~~2014. In addition, MS&Co. annually prepares an Audited, Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition (“Audited Financial Statement”) that is publicly available on Morgan Stanley’s website at www.morganstanley.com. Please refer to the Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies – Legal section of MS&Co.’s ~~2017~~2018 Audited Financial Statement.

In addition to the matters described in those filings, in the normal course of business, each of Morgan Stanley and MS&Co. has been named, from time to time, as a defendant in various legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions, and other litigation, arising in connection with its activities as a global diversified financial services institution. Certain of the legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. Each of Morgan Stanley and MS&Co. is also involved, from time to time, in investigations and proceedings by governmental and/or regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations, certain of which may result in adverse judgments, fines or penalties. The number of these investigations and proceedings has increased in recent years with regard to many financial services institutions, including Morgan Stanley and MS&Co.

MS&Co. is a Delaware limited liability company with its main business office located at 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036. Among other registrations and memberships, MS&Co. is registered as a futures commission merchant and is a member of the National Futures Association.

On December 18, 2014, the parties’ agreement to settle the litigation received final court approval, and on December 19, 2014, the court entered an order dismissing the action.

On November 4, 2011, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, as receiver for Franklin Bank S.S.B, filed two complaints against MS&Co. in the District Court of the State of Texas. Each was styled Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as Receiver for Franklin Bank, S.S.B v. Morgan Stanley & Company LLC F/K/A Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc. and alleged that MS&Co. made untrue statements and material omissions in connection with the sale to plaintiff of mortgage pass-through certificates backed by securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans. The amount of certificates allegedly underwritten and sold to plaintiff by MS&Co. in these cases was approximately $67 million and $35 million, respectively. On July 2, 2015, the parties reached an agreement to settle the litigation.

On February 14, 2013, Bank Hapoalim B.M. filed a complaint against MS&Co. and certain affiliates in the Supreme Court of NY, styled Bank Hapoalim B.M. v. Morgan Stanley et al.

On September 23, 2013, the plaintiff in National Credit Union Administration Board v. Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc., et al. filed a complaint against MS&Co. and certain affiliates in the SDNY. The complaint alleged that defendants made untrue statements of material fact or omitted to state material facts in the sale to the plaintiff of certain mortgage pass-through certificates issued by securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans. The total amount of certificates allegedly sponsored, underwritten and/or sold by MS&Co. to plaintiffs in the matter was approximately $417 million. The complaint alleged violations of federal and various state securities laws and sought, among other things, rescissionary and compensatory damages.

On April 20, 2011, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston filed a complaint against MS&Co. and other defendants in the Superior Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts styled Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston v. Ally Financial, Inc. F/K/A GMAC LLC et al. An amended complaint was filed on June 29, 2012 and alleged that defendants made untrue statements and material omissions in the sale to plaintiff of certain mortgage pass-through certificates backed by securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans. The total amount of certificates allegedly issued by MS&Co. or sold to plaintiff by MS&Co. was approximately $385 million. The amended complaint raised claims under the Massachusetts Uniform Securities Act, the Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act and common law and sought, among other things, to rescind the plaintiff’s purchase of such certificates.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, aims to achieve substantial capital appreciation through speculative trading, directly and indirectly, in U.S. and international markets for currencies, interest rates, stock indices, softs, agricultural and energy products and precious and base metals. The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, may employ futures, options on futures, forward and swap contracts in those markets.

The General Partner manages all business of the Partnership/Master. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to the Advisor. The Partnership has invested these assets in the Master. The General Partner engages a team of approximately 2520 professionals whose primary emphasis is on attempting to maintain quality control among the advisors to the funds operated or managed by the General Partner. A full-time staff of due diligence professionals uses proprietary technology and on-site evaluations to identify, select and monitor new and existing futures money managers. The accounting and operations staff provide processing of subscriptions and redemptions and reporting to limited partners and regulatory authorities. The General Partner also engages staff involved in marketing and sales support.

Responsibilities of the General Partner include:

•

due diligence examinations of the Advisor;

•

selection, appointment and termination of the Advisor;

•

negotiation of the Management Agreement; and

•

monitoring the activity of the Advisor.

In addition, the General Partner prepares, or assists the Administrator in preparing, the books and records and provides, or assists the Administrator in providing, the administrative and compliance services that are required by law or regulation, from time to time, in connection with the operation of the Partnership/Master.

1516

While the Partnership and the Master have the right to seek lower commission rates and fees from other commodity brokers at any time, the General Partner believes that the customer agreements and other arrangements with the commodity broker are fair, reasonable and competitive.

Winton Capital Management Limited

The Partnership’s assets allocated to the Advisor for trading are not invested in commodity interests directly. The Advisor’s allocation of the Partnership’s assets is currently invested in the Master. The Advisor trades the Master’s, and thereby the Partnership’s, assets in accordance with its Winton Futures Program, a proprietary, systematic trading program.

The investment objective of the Winton Futures Program is to achieve long-term investment growth.

The Winton Futures Program follows a disciplined investment process that is based on statistical analysis of historical data. The initial stage of the process involves collecting, cleaning and organizing large amounts of data. The Winton Futures Program uses a wide variety of data inputs including factors that are intrinsic to markets, such as price, volume and open interest; and those that are external to markets, such as economic statistics, industrial and commodity data and public company financial data. The Advisor conducts statistical research into the data in an attempt to quantify the probability of particular markets rising or falling, conditional on a variety of quantifiable factors. The Advisor’s research is used to develop mathematical models that attempt to forecast market returns, the variability or volatility associated with such returns (often described as “risk”), and the correlation between markets and transaction costs. These forecasts are used in investment strategies that determine what positions should be held to maximize profit within a certain range of risk. As a result of the Advisor’s research, the Advisor expects that the investments made in accordance with this process will have an improved chance of being successful, which is expected to lead to profits over the long-term.

The Advisor’s investment programs are operated as automated, computer-based investment systems. The programs are modified over time as the Advisor monitors their operation and undertakes further research. Changes to the programs occur as a result of, amongst other things, the discovery of new relationships, changes in market liquidity, the availability of new data or the reinterpretation of existing data.

Most of the Advisor’s investment decisions are made strictly in accordance with the output of the programs. However, the Advisor may, in exceptional circumstances (such as the occurrence of events that fall outside the input parameters of the programs), make investment decisions based on other factors and take action to override the output of the programs to seek to protect the interests of investors.

The Advisor does not take any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the contents of this document, any representations made herein, or the performance of the Partnership/Master. The Advisor disclaims any liability for any direct, indirect, consequential or other losses or damages, including loss of profits incurred by limited partners or by any third party that may arise from any reliance on this document. The Advisor is neither responsible for, nor involved in, the marketing, distribution or sales of shares or interests in the Partnership and is not responsible for compliance with any marketing or promotion laws, rules or regulations; and no third party other than the Advisor is authorized to make any statement about any of the Advisor’s products or services in connection with any such marketing, distribution or sales. Past performance by any other fund advised by the Advisor is not indicative of any future performance by the Partnership/Master.

(a) Liquidity.

The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. The Partnership’s only assets are its investment in the Master, redemptions receivable from the Master and cash. The Master does not engage in sales of goods or services. The Master’s only assets are its cash at bank, subscriptions receivable and equity in trading accounts, consisting of unrestricted cash, restricted cash, net unrealized appreciation on open futures contracts, net unrealized appreciation on open forward contracts and investment in U.S. Treasury bills at fair value, if applicable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership, through its investment in the Master. While substantial losses could lead to a material decrease in liquidity, no such illiquidity occurred during the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018.

1617

To minimize the risk relating to low margin deposits, the Partnership and the Master follow certain trading policies, including:

(i)

The Master invests its assets only in commodity interests that the Advisor believes are traded in sufficient volume to permit ease of taking and liquidating positions. Sufficient volume, in this context, refers to a level of liquidity that the Advisor believes will permit it to enter and exit trades without noticeably moving the market.

(ii)	The Master normally will not establish new positions in a commodity interest for any one contract month or option if such additional positions would result in a net long or short position for that commodity interest requiring as margin or premium more than 15% of the Master’s net assets.

(iii)

The Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity interest if these positions would result in aggregate positions requiring a margin of more than 66 2/3% of the Partnership’s net assets allocated to the Advisor.

(iv) The Master will trade currencies and other commodities in the interbank and forward contract markets only with banks, brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions which the General Partner, in conjunction with MS&Co. and/or JPMorgan, has determined to be creditworthy. In determining the creditworthiness of a counterparty to a forward contract, the ~~General~~general ~~Partner~~partner, MS&Co. and JPMorgan will consult with their respective credit personnel.

(v)	The Advisor will not generally take a position after the first notice day in any commodity interest during the delivery month of that commodity interest, except to match trades to close out a position on the interbank foreign currency or other forward markets or liquidate trades in a limit market.

(vi)	The Master may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearinghouse, the physical commodity position is fully hedged.

(vii)

The Master does not employ the trading technique commonly known as “pyramiding,” in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as margin for the purchase or sale of additional positions in the same or related commodities.

(viii)

The Master does not utilize borrowings other than short-term borrowings if the Master takes delivery of any cash commodities.

(ix)	The Master will not purchase, sell, or trade securities (except securities permitted by the CFTC for investment of customer funds). The Master may, however, trade in futures contracts on securities and securities indexes, options on such futures contracts, and other commodity options.

(x)

The Advisor may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Master. “Spreads” and “straddles” describe commodity futures trading strategies involving the simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but involving different delivery dates or markets.

(xi)	The Master will not permit the churning of its commodity trading account. The term “churning” refers to the practice of entering and exiting trades with a frequency unwarranted by legitimate efforts to profit from the trades, indicating the desire to generate commission income.

From January 1, ~~2017~~2018 through December 31, ~~2017~~2018, the Partnership’s average margin to equity ratio (i.e., the percentage of assets on deposit required for margin) was approximately 1611.24%. The foregoing margin to equity ratio takes into account cash held in the Partnership’s name, as well as the allocable value of the positions and cash held on behalf of the Partnership in the name of the Master.

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, is party to financial instruments with off- balance-sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include futures, forwards, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange, a swap execution facility or OTC. Exchange-traded instruments include futures and certain standardized forward, option and swap contracts. Certain swap contracts may also be traded on a swap execution facility or OTC. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and also include certain forward and option contracts. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating to the underlying financial instrument, including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange-traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.

The risk to the limited partners that have purchased Redeemable Units is limited to the amount of their share of the Partnership’s net assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a consequence of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Partnership/Master are exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

1718

Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Partnership’s/Master’s risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s/Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership/Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership/Master had credit risk and concentration risk, as MS&Co., an MS&Co. affiliate, ~~JPMorgan~~ and/or JPMorgan ~~CGM~~ or their affiliates are or were counterparties or brokers with respect to the Partnership’s/Master’s assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments was reduced to the extent that, through MS&Co. ~~and/or CGM~~, ~~the~~ the Partnership’s/Master’s counterparty was an exchange or clearing organization. The Partnership/Master continue to be subject to such risks with respect to MS&Co. and JPMorgan.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Partnership’s/Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership/Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forward and option contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. (See also “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” for further information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to financial statements.)

The majority of these financial instruments mature within one year of the inception date. However, due to the nature of the Partnership’s/Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Other than the risks inherent in U.S. Treasury bills, money market mutual fund securities, commodity futures, forwards, options and swaps trading, the Partnership knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will result in or which are reasonably likely to result in the Partnership’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner may cause the Partnership to cease trading operations under certain circumstances, including a decrease in net asset value per Redeemable Unit of any Class to less than $400 as of the close of business on any business day. In addition, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, cause the Partnership to dissolve if the aggregate net assets of the Partnership decline to less than $1,000,000.

(b) Capital Resources.

(i) The Partnership has made no material commitments for capital expenditures.

(ii) The Partnership’s capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on trading and by expenses, interest income allocated from the Master, subscriptions, redemptions of Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any. Gains or losses on trading cannot be predicted. Market movements in commodities are dependent upon fundamental and technical factors which the Advisor may or may not be able to identify, such as changing supply and demand relationships, weather, government, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. Partnership expenses consist of, among other things, clearing fees, ongoing selling agent fees, management fees and General Partner fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon trading performance and the level of net assets maintained. In addition, the amount of interest income earned by the Partnership is dependent upon (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s and/or Master’s accounts, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities held by the Partnership and/or the Master and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership, the Master, MS&Co. or JPMorgan has control.

No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions in any given period. A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value as of the last day of any month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions. Redemptions are generally funded out of the Partnership’s cash holdings and/or redemptions from the Master.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading ~~gain~~loss before fees and expenses of $215,~~665~~233,~~110~~130 for the year ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018. ~~Gains~~Losses were primarily attributable to the Master’s trading of currencies, indices, U.S. interest rates livestock and ~~softs~~metals, and were partially offset by ~~losses~~gains in ~~currencies,~~ energy, grains, ~~U.S. and~~ non-U.S. interest rates and ~~metals~~softs. The net trading gain or loss realized from the Partnership’s investment in the Master is disclosed under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

During the first quarter, the most notable losses were incurred within the currency markets during February from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Japanese yen advanced amid fears of a US-led trade war. In commodities, losses within the metals markets were incurred during February and March from long positions in aluminum and copper futures as demand for industrial metals weakened amid signs of weakness in the global equity markets and a burgeoning global trade war. A portion of the Partnership’s losses for the first quarter was offset by gains experienced within the global interest rate sector during January and February from short positions in U.S. fixed income futures as investors anticipated the U.S. Federal Reserve would be aggressive in raising interest rates in 2018.

During the second quarter, the most significant gains were achieved within the energy sector from long positions in crude oil and its refined products as tensions in the Middle East and the re-impositions of sanctions on Iran pushed energy prices higher throughout the quarter. Gains within the metals markets were primarily experienced due to short positions in industrial metals during May and June as fears of trade war between the U.S. and China pulled prices lower. Additional gains in metals were recorded during June from short positions in gold and silver futures as a strengthening U.S. dollar weakened investor demand for precious metals. A portion of the Partnership’s gains for the second quarter was offset by losses incurred within the currency sector during May from positions in the euro, Mexican peso, and British pound versus the U.S. dollar as a surging U.S. economy bolstered the value of the dollar.

During the third quarter, the most significant gains were achieved within the metals markets during July and August from short positions in gold and silver futures as a strengthening U.S. dollar diminished investor demand for precious metals. Additional gains were experienced within the agriculturals during July and August from short positions in coffee and sugar futures as global supply stocks swelled. Within the global stock index sector, gains were achieved throughout the third quarter from long positions in U.S. and Asian equity index futures as positive global economic sentiment overcame trade war concerns, pushing stock prices higher. The Partnership’s gains for the third quarter were partially offset by losses incurred within the global interest rate markets during July and September from long positions in European fixed income futures as comments from the European Central Bank indicated a more hawkish position on raising interest rates.

During the fourth quarter, the most notable losses were incurred within the metals sector during October and December from short positions in gold and silver futures as prices advanced amid increased demand for the relative safety of precious metals. Within the global stock index sector, losses were incurred during October and December from long positions in U.S., Asian, and European equity index futures as prices declined amid mounting signs of slowing global economic growth. Smaller losses were incurred from trading currencies and soft commodities during the quarter. A portion of the Partnership’s losses for the fourth quarter was offset by gains experienced within the global interest rate markets from long positions in European fixed income futures as prices advanced as investors sought out the relative safety of government debt.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading gain before fees and expenses of $21,665,110 for the year ended December 31, 2017. Gains were primarily attributable to the Master’s trading of indices, livestock and softs, and were partially offset by losses in currencies, energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and metals.

During the first quarter, the most significant gains were achieved within the global equity index markets during February and March from long positions in U.S., European, and Asian equity index futures as prices were buoyed by positive economic sentiment across the globe. Positive sentiment also fueled gains for long positions in U.S. and Asian equity index futures during January. A portion of the Partnership’s gains for the first quarter was offset by losses incurred within the energy complex during January and February from long positions in natural gas futures as prices fell dramatically lower as mild weather throughout much of the U.S. diminished heating demand. Within the global interest rate sector, losses were recorded during January and March from long positions in European fixed income futures amid speculation of growing hawkish sentiment from the European Central Bank.

During the second quarter, the most significant losses were incurred within the currency sector during April and May from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the euro advanced on easing political tensions in the Eurozone and amid turmoil surrounding the Trump administration. Additional losses within this sector were recorded during April from short positions in the British pound. Within the global interest rate sector, losses were experienced during June from long positions in U.S. and European fixed income futures as prices moved lower after comments from European Central Bank President, Mario Draghi, sparked a sell-off in global bonds. A portion of the Partnership’s losses for the second quarter was offset by gains achieved within the global stock index sector during May from long positions in U.S., European, and Asian equity index futures as prices were supported by increased consumer confidence. Within the agricultural markets, gains were recorded during April from long positions in cattle futures as prices rallied sharply higher amid increased global demand for U.S. beef exports.

During the third quarter, the most significant gains were achieved within the global stock index sector during July and August from long positions in U.S. and Asian equity index futures as prices were driven higher by strong U.S. jobs data and improving investor sentiment. During August, positive economic sentiment also fueled gains for long positions in European equity index futures. A majority of the Partnership’s trading gains for the third quarter was offset by losses incurred within the metals markets during July and September from long positions in gold futures as a strengthening U.S. dollar limited demand for precious metals. Additional losses within the metals complex were recorded during July and September from long positions in copper futures. Within the global interest rate sector, losses were experienced primarily during September from long positions in European and U.S. fixed income futures as the global bond market experienced a sell-off.

During the fourth quarter, the Partnership recorded strong gains within the global stock index sector during October, November, and December as equity prices were boosted throughout the quarter following hawkish comments from several of the world’s largest central banks, strong consumer data, and positive economic sentiment globally. Additional gains were recorded in energies during the fourth quarter from long positions in crude oil and its related products as prices advanced amid speculation OPEC will continue curbing output. Smaller gains for the quarter were recorded in the metals, global interest rate, agricultural, and currency sectors.

Interest income on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at MS&Co. during each month is earned at a monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. Prior to November 1, 2017, the Partnership received monthly interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at MS&Co. at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. For the avoidance of doubt, the Partnership/Master will not receive interest on amounts in the futures brokerage account that are committed to margin. Any interest earned on the Partnership’s and/or the Master’s account in excess of the amounts described above, if any, will be retained by MS&Co. and/or shared with the General Partner. All interest earned on U.S. Treasury bills and money market mutual fund securities will be retained by the Partnership and/or the Master, as applicable. Any interest income earned on collateral deposited by the Master and held by JPMorgan in its capacity as the Master’s forward foreign currency counterparty will be retained by the Master, and the Partnership will receive its allocable portion of such interest from the Master. Interest income allocated from the Master for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 increased by $455,416 and $1,820,369, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rates during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017. Interest earned by the Partnership will increase the net asset value of the Partnership. The amount of interest income earned by the Partnership depends upon (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s and/or the Master’s account, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities held by the Partnership and/or the Master and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership, the Master, MS&Co. or JPMorgan has control.

Ongoing selling agent fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value of Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Ongoing selling agent fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 decreased by $106,737 and $493,669, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017. The decrease in ongoing selling agent fees was due to lower average net assets attributable to Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017.

Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s net asset value per Class as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Management fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 decreased by $78,232 and $336,097, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017. The decrease in management fees was due to lower average net assets per Class during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017.

General Partner fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. General Partner fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 decreased by $52,155 and $224,065, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017. The decrease in General Partner fees was due to lower average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2017.

Incentive fees paid by the Partnership are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor at the end of the quarter, as defined in the Management Agreement. There were no incentive fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new profits for the Partnership.

The Partnership pays professional fees, which generally include legal and accounting expenses, certain offering costs and filing, administrative, reporting and data processing fees. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $552,410 and $583,999, respectively.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading gain before fees and expenses of $3,789,675 for the year ended December 31, 2016. Gains were primarily attributable to the Master’s trading of currencies, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock and softs, and were partially offset by losses in energy, grains, indices and metals.

The most significant losses were incurred within the metals markets during January and February from short positions in gold and silver futures as prices advanced after a weakening U.S. dollar reignited demand for the precious metals. Additional losses within the metals sector were experienced during August from long positions in gold and silver futures as prices moved lower as investors weighed the potential for interest rate increases in the U.S. Within the energy complex, losses were recorded during November from short positions in natural gas futures as prices advanced as demand spiked during the month. During November, further losses were recorded from short positions in the crude oil complex. Additional losses were incurred during March and April from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices surged as U.S. oil rig counts continued to decline. Within the agricultural sector, losses were recorded during March and April from short positions in corn, wheat, and soybean futures as adverse weather conditions in South America threatened Brazilian and Argentinian grain harvests, pushing prices higher. The Partnership’s trading losses for the year were offset by trading gains achieved within the global interest rate markets during January and February from long positions in European and U.S. fixed income futures as prices advanced after weakness in Chinese economic data revived concern about the stability of the global economy. Additional gains were experienced during June from long positions in European and U.S. fixed income futures amid increased demand for stable assets as global risk assets roiled surrounding the U.K. Referendum vote. Within the currency sector, gains were recorded during June and September from long positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the Asian currency rallied amid increased investor demand for “safe-haven” assets. Gains within the currency markets were also experienced during October from short positions in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the British currency continued to decline amid the fallout of the U.K.’s June referendum vote to leave the European Union. Within the global stock index markets, gains were experienced during November and December from long positions in U.S., European, and Asian equity index futures as global equity prices rallied following the U.S. Presidential election. Additional profits in this sector were recorded throughout the third quarter.

Interest income on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at MS&Co. during each month is earned at a monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. Prior to November 1, 2017, MS&Co. paid the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. treasury bill discount rate. Any interest earned on the Partnership’s and/or the Master’s account in excess of the amounts described above, if any, will be retained by MS&Co. and/or shared with the General Partner. All interest earned on U.S. Treasury bills and money market mutual fund securities will be retained by the Partnership and/or the Master, as applicable. Any interest income earned on collateral deposited by the Master and held by JPMorgan in its capacity as the Master’s forward foreign currency counterparty will be retained by the Master, and the Partnership will receive its allocable portion of such interest from the Master. Interest income allocated from the Master for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 increased by $364,688 and $913,366, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rates during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. Interest earned by the Partnership will increase the net asset value of the Partnership. The amount of interest income earned by the Partnership depends upon (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s and/or the Master’s account, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities held by the Partnership and/or the Master and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership, the Master, MS&Co. or JPMorgan has control.

Ongoing selling agent fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value of Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Ongoing selling agent fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 decreased by $89,791 and $333,185, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. The decrease in ongoing selling agent fees is due to lower average net assets attributable to Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016.

Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s net asset value per Class as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Management fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 decreased by $51,776 and $220,725, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. The decrease in management fees is due to lower average net assets per Class during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016.

General Partner fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, additions and redemptions. General Partner fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 decreased by $34,519 and $147,153, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016. The decrease in General Partner fees is due to lower average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016.

Incentive fees paid by the Partnership are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor at the end of the quarter, as defined in the Management Agreement. There were no incentive fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new profits for the Partnership.

The Partnership pays professional fees, which generally include legal and accounting expenses, certain offering costs and filing, administrative, reporting and data processing fees. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were $583,999 and $599,842, respectively.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading gain before fees and expenses of $8,689,147 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Gains were primarily attributable to the Master’s trading of energy, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs, and were partially offset by losses in currencies, grains and indices.

The most significant losses were incurred within the global stock index markets during August from long positions in U.S., European, and Asian equity index futures as prices fell sharply amid concern a slowdown in Chinese economic growth would adversely affect the global economy. Additional losses in this sector were experienced during June from long positions in European, U.S., and Asian equity index futures as prices declined as concerns over Greece’s efforts to avoid a default weighed on global financial markets. Within the currency sector, losses were recorded during August from short positions in the euro and Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the U.S. dollar declined as fears over a hard landing in China and its impact on global growth outlook pushed back expectations for a U.S. Federal Reserve rate hike at the September FOMC meeting. Additional losses in this sector were recorded during April from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar after the relative value of the dollar slumped following the release of lower-than-expected first quarter Gross Domestic Product totals in the U.S. Losses in the currency sector were also incurred during December from short positions in the euro and Swiss franc versus the U.S. dollar as the relative values of these European currencies reversed higher early in the month after the scale of the European Central Bank’s stimulus measures disappointed investors. The Partnership’s trading losses for the year were offset by trading gains achieved within the energy markets during November and December from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices weakened as the OPEC nations added to a growing global supply glut by failing to agree on production cuts. Gains within the energies were also experienced during July and September from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices dropped as record production in the U.S. and Middle East boosted global supplies. Within the global interest rate markets, gains were recorded during January from long positions in European fixed income futures as prices advanced on increased speculation that slow growth in Eurozone economies would spur the European Central Bank to increase its quantitative easing measures. Additional gains were experienced during January from long positions in U.S. Treasury note and Treasury bond futures as prices climbed higher over investor concern that record crude oil inventories could dampen inflation projections in the U.S. Gains were also recorded in this sector during September from long positions in European and U.S. fixed income futures. Within the metals markets, gains were achieved primarily during July from short positions in gold and silver futures as prices fell as a strengthening U.S. dollar curbed demand for precious metals as a store of value. Additional gains in this sector were recorded during July from short positions in copper futures as prices declined amid investor concern of slowing demand from China. Within the agricultural complex, gains were achieved during November from short positions in corn and wheat futures as prices weakened following the release of U.S. government forecasts which predicted that global grain inventories will reach record levels in 2016. Gains within the agricultural complex were also recorded during September from short positions in cattle futures as prices moved lower on signs of weaker-than-expected beef demand amid increased supplies.

In the General Partner’s opinion, the Advisor continues to employ its trading methods in a consistent and disciplined manner and its results are consistent with the objectives of the Partnership and expectations for the Advisor’s program. The General Partner continues to monitor the Advisor’s performance on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis to ensure that these objectives are met.

Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. The potential for broad and rapid price fluctuations increases the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increases the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to correctly identify those price trends. Price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisor is able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.

In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Master, the General Partner considers, among other factors, the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.

(d) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. None.

(e) Contractual Obligations. None.

(f) Operational Risk.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, is directly exposed to market risk and credit risk, which arise in the normal course of its business activities. Slightly less direct, but of critical importance, are risks pertaining to operational and back office support. This is particularly the case in a rapidly changing and increasingly global environment with increasing transaction volumes and an expansion in the number and complexity of products in the marketplace.

Such risks include:

Operational/Settlement Risk — the risk of financial and opportunity loss and legal liability attributable to operational problems, such as inaccurate pricing of transactions, untimely trade execution, clearance and/or settlement, or the inability to process large volumes of transactions. The Partnership and the Master are subject to increased risks with respect to their trading activities in emerging market instruments, where clearance, settlement, and custodial risks are often greater than in more established markets.

2122

Technological Risk — the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership’s/Master’s ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers, and in the markets where the Partnership/Master participates. Additionally, the General Partner’s computer systems may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, mishandling or misuse, computer viruses or malware, cyber attacks and other events that could have a security impact on such systems. If one or more of such events occur, this potentially could jeopardize a limited partner’s personal, confidential, proprietary or other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, the General Partner’s computer systems, and adversely affect the Partnership’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Legal/Documentation Risk — the risk of loss attributable to deficiencies in the documentation of transactions (such as trade confirmations) and customer relationships (such as master netting agreements) or errors that result in non-compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Financial Control Risk — the risk of loss attributable to limitations in financial systems and controls. Strong financial systems and controls ensure that assets are safeguarded, that transactions are executed in accordance with the General Partner’s authorization, and that financial information utilized by the General Partner and communicated to external parties, including the Partnership’s Redeemable Unit holders, creditors and regulators, is free of material errors.

(g) Critical Accounting Policies.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. A summary of the Partnership’s significant accounting policies is described in Note 2 to the Partnership’s financial statements included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

The Partnership’s most significant accounting policy is the valuation of its investment in the Master. The fair value of the investment in the Master is determined based on the Master’s net asset value per Redeemable Unit, as a practical expedient, as calculated by the Master.

Additionally, the Master’s investments in futures, option and forward contracts and U.S. Treasury bills, as applicable, are carried at fair value. The fair value of exchange-traded futures, option and forward contracts is determined by the various exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract as of the close of business on the last business day of the reporting period. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is extrapolated on a forward basis from the spot prices quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period from various exchanges. The fair value of non-exchange-traded foreign currency option contracts is calculated by applying an industry standard model application for options valuation of foreign currency options, using as inputs the spot prices, interest rates, and option implied volatilities quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period. U.S. Treasury bills are valued at the last available bid price received from independent pricing services as of the close of the last business day of the reporting period.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Introduction

All of the Partnership’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss through its investment in the Master. The Partnership and the Master are speculative commodity pools. The market sensitive instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Master’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss through its investment in the Master. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Master’s and the Partnership’s main line of business.

The limited partners will not be liable for losses exceeding the current net asset value of their investment.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Master’s open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash balances. The Master’s market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Master’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.

The Master rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Master’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.

2223

Materiality as used in this section is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and the potential losses caused by such movements, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Master’s market sensitive instruments.

Quantifying the Partnership’s/Master’s Trading Value at Risk

The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Master’s market risk exposures contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). All quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor except for statements of historical fact (such as the terms of particular contracts and the number of market risk sensitive instruments held during or at the end of the reporting period).

The Master’s risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the Advisor is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Master’s mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Master’s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s earnings (realized or unrealized allocated from the Master).

“Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Master could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Master’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Master of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Master’s experience to date (i.e., “risk of ruin”). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Master’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Master’s attempts to manage its market risk.

Exchange margin requirements have been used by the Master as the measure of its Value at Risk. Margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%—99% of any one-day intervals. The margin levels are established by dealers and exchanges using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation.

In the case of market sensitive instruments which are not exchange-traded (almost exclusively currencies in the case of the Master), the margin requirements for the equivalent futures positions have been used as Value at Risk. In those rare cases in which a futures-equivalent margin is not available, dealers’ margins have been used.

The fair value of the Master’s futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, the Advisor may trade commodity options. Where this instrument is a futures contract, the futures margin has been used, and where this instrument is a physical commodity, the futures-equivalent margin has been used. This calculation is conservative in that it assumes that the fair value of an option will decline by the same amount as the fair value of the underlying instrument, whereas, in fact, the fair values of the options traded by the Master in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.

In quantifying the Master’s Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been added to determine each trading category’s aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Master’s positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.

2324

The Master’s Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors

Value at Risk tables represent a probabilistic assessment of the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments. The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Master’s open positions by market category as of December 31, 2018 and prior to the close of business on December 31, 2017 ~~and as of December 31~~, ~~2016,~~ and the highest, lowest and average value at any point during the years. All open position trading risk exposures of the Master have been included in calculating the figures set forth below.

Material Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk

The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Master is typically many times the applicable margin requirement (margin requirements generally range between 1% and 15% of contract face value, although an exchange may increase margin requirements on short notice), as well as many times the capitalization of the Master. The magnitude of the Master’s open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Master to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk tables — as well as the past performance of the Master — give no indication of this “risk of ruin.”

Non-Trading Risk

The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash balances not needed for margin. These balances and any market risk they may represent are immaterial.

A decline in short-term interest rates would result in a decline in the Partnership’s cash management income. This cash flow risk is not considered to be material.

Materiality, as used throughout this section, is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and any associated potential losses, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership’s market-sensitive instruments, in relation to the Partnership’s net assets.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Master’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Master manages its primary market risk exposures — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Master’s primary market risk exposures, as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisor for managing such exposures, are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Master’s risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material changes to the risk exposures and the management strategies of the Master. There can be no assurance that the Master’s current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short or long term. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.

The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Master as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018, by market sector. It may be anticipated, however, that these market exposures will vary materially over time.

Currencies. The Master’s currency exposure is to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily fluctuations that disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. These fluctuations are influenced by interest rate changes as well as political and general economic conditions. The General Partner does not anticipate that the risk profile of the Master’s currency sector will change significantly in the future.

Equities. The Master’s primary equity exposure is to equity price risk in the G8 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Master are limited to futures on broadly based indices. As of December 31, ~~2017~~2018, the Master’s primary exposures were in the ~~Dow Jones Euro STOXX 50 (Europe),~~ S&P 500 (U.S.), ~~Hang~~Russell ~~Seng~~2000 (~~Hong Kong~~U.S.), ~~SPI~~Nikkei ~~200~~225 (~~Australia~~Japan), NASDAQ 100 (U.S.), ~~FTSE~~Dow ~~100~~Jones EURO ~~(U.K.)~~STOXX ~~and~~50 ~~Nikkei 225~~ (~~Japan~~Europe) stock indices. The Master is primarily exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major ~~European,~~ U.S., ~~and~~ Pacific Rim, and European indices. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but would make it difficult for the Master to avoid being “whipsawed” into numerous small losses.)

Interest Rates. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the futures positions held by the Master and indirectly the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country as well as relative interest rate movements between countries materially affect the Master’s profitability. The Master’s primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and the other G8 countries. However, the Master may also take futures positions on the government debt of smaller nations — e.g., Australia and New Zealand.

Commodities:

Metals. The Master’s primary metal market exposure as of December 31, 2017 was to fluctuations in the price of copper, aluminum, sliver, nickel, and zinc.

Energy. The Master’s primary energy market exposure is to oil and natural gas price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East and weather conditions. Energy prices can be volatile and substantial profits and losses, which have been experienced in the past, are expected to continue to be experienced in these markets in the future.

25Metals. The Master’s primary metal market exposure as of December 31, 2018 was to fluctuations in the price of copper, silver, gold, and aluminum.

~~Softs.~~26 The Master’s trading risk exposure in the soft commodities is to agricultural-related price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Sugar, cocoa, coffee, and cotton accounted for the majority of the Master’s soft commodities exposure as of December 31, 2017.

~~Grains~~Softs. The Master’s trading risk exposure in the ~~grains~~soft iscommodities ~~primarily~~ is to agricultural-related price movements, which are often directly affected by supply/demand disruptions and severe or unexpected weather conditions. ~~Wheat~~Sugar, ~~corn~~cocoa, coffee, and ~~the~~cotton ~~soybean complex~~ accounted for the majority of the Master’s ~~grain~~soft commodities exposure as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018.

Grains. The Master’s trading risk exposure in the grains is primarily to agricultural price movements, which are often directly affected by supply/demand disruptions and severe or unexpected weather conditions. Wheat, the soybean complex, and corn accounted for the majority of the Master’s grain exposure as of December 31, 2018.

Livestock. The Master’s primary risk exposure in livestock is to fluctuations in hog and cattle prices.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure

The following was the only non-trading risk exposure of the Master as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018.

Foreign Currency Balances. The Master may hold various foreign currency balances. The Advisor regularly converts foreign currency balances to U.S. dollars in attempt to control the Master’s non-trading risk.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Partnership’s (through its investment in the Master) risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Master may be subject.

The General Partner monitors the Master’s performance and the concentration of its open positions, and consults with the Advisor concerning the Master’s overall risk profile. If the General Partner felt it necessary to do so, the General Partner could require the Advisor to close out positions as well as enter positions traded on behalf of the Master. However, any such intervention would be a highly unusual event. The General Partner primarily relies on the Advisor’s own risk control policies while maintaining a general supervisory overview of the Master’s market risk exposures.

The Advisor applies its own risk management policies to its trading. The Advisor often follows diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss points to exit a position. The Advisor’s research of risk management often suggests ongoing modifications to its trading programs.

As part of the General Partner’s risk management, the General Partner periodically meets with the Advisor to discuss its risk management and to look for any material changes to the Advisor’s portfolio balance and trading techniques. The Advisor is required to notify the General Partner of any material changes to its programs.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Ceres Abingdon L.P. (~~formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.) (~~the “Partnership”), Ceres Managed Futures LLC, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and for our assessment of internal control over financial reporting. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;

(ii)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Partnership; and

(iii)

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection and correction of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The management of Ceres Abingdon L.P. has assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment, management concluded that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018 based on the criteria referred to above.

(formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.)

Notes to Financial Statements

1.	Organization:

Ceres Abingdon L.P. (formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.) (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on November 8, 2005, under the partnership laws of the State of New York, to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures, option, swap and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, indices, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs. The Partnership commenced trading on February 1, 2007. The commodity interests that are indirectly traded by the Partnership through its investment in CMF Winton Master L.P. (the “Master”) are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The General Partner (as defined below) may also determine to invest up to all of the Partnership’s assets (directly or indirectly through its investment in the Master) in United States (“U.S.”) Treasury bills and/or money market mutual funds, including money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates. The Partnership privately and continuously offers redeemable units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership (“Redeemable Units”) to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of Redeemable Units that may be sold by the Partnership.

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. As of January 1, 2017, the General Partner became a wholly–owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Domestic Holdings, Inc. (“MSD Holdings”). MSD Holdings is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley is a publicly held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Morgan Stanley is engaged in various financial services and other businesses. Prior to January 1, 2017, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC. All trading decisions for the Partnership are made by Winton Capital Management Limited (the “Advisor”).

~~Effective~~During ~~September 21,~~the ~~2017~~periods covered by this report, the Partnership’s ~~changed~~and ~~its~~the ~~name~~Master’s ~~from~~commodity ~~Managed~~broker ~~Futures~~was ~~Premier~~Morgan Stanley & ~~Abingdon~~Co. LLLC (“MS&Co.P”), a registered futures commission merchant. toJPMorgan ~~Ceres Abingdon~~Chase LBank, N.PA (“JPMorgan”) was also a foreign exchange forward contract counterparty for the Master. The Partnership and the Master deposited a portion of their cash in non-trading bank accounts at JPMorgan.

During the periods covered by this report, the Partnership’s and the Master’s commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A (“JPMorgan”) was also a foreign exchange forward counterparty for the Master. The Partnership and the Master also deposit a portion of their cash in non-trading bank accounts at JPMorgan.

On February 1, 2007, the Partnership allocated substantially all of its capital to the Master, a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the state of New York, having the same investment objective as the Partnership. The Master permits accounts managed by the Advisor using the Winton Futures Program (formerly, the Winton Diversified Program, as applied without equities), the Advisor’s proprietary, systematic trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of the Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of the Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this master/feeder structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in the Master are approximately the same as if the Partnership traded directly, and redemption rights are not affected. The General Partner and the Advisor agreed that the Advisor will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to the Advisor at a level that is up to 1.5 times the amount of assets allocated.

(formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.)

Notes to Financial Statements

The financial statements of the Master, including the Condensed Schedules of Investments, are attached to this report and should be read together with the Partnership’s financial statements.

On April 1, 2011, the Partnership began offering “Class A” Redeemable Units, “Class D” Redeemable Units and “Class Z” Redeemable Units pursuant to the offering memorandum. All Redeemable Units issued prior to April 1, 2011 were deemed Class A Redeemable Units. The rights, liabilities, risks, and fees associated with investment in the Class A Redeemable Units did not change. “Class D” Redeemable Units and “Class Z” Redeemable Units were first issued on April 1, 2011 and August 1, 2011, respectively. Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units will each be referred to as a “Class” and collectively referred to as the “Classes.” The Class of Redeemable Units that a limited partner receives upon a subscription will generally depend upon the amount invested in the Partnership or the status of the limited partner, although the General Partner may determine to offer any Class of Redeemable Units to investors at its discretion. Class A Redeemable Units and Class D Redeemable Units are available to taxable U.S. individuals and institutions, U.S. tax exempt individuals and institutions and non-U.S. investors. Class Z Redeemable Units are offered to limited partners who receive advisory services from Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (doing business as Morgan Stanley Wealth Management) (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”) and certain employees of Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries (and their family members). Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units are identical, except that Class D Redeemable Units are subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee equal to 1/12 of 0.75% (a 0.75% annual rate) of the net assets of Class D as of the end of each month, which differs from the Class A monthly ongoing selling agent fee of 1/12 of 2.00% (a 2.00% annual rate) of the net assets of Class A as of the end of each month. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee.

~~Prior~~As of December 31, 2018 and prior to the close of business on December 31, 2017 ~~and as of December 31~~, ~~2016,~~ the Partnership owned approximately 52 53.69% and 4552.86%, respectively, of the Master. The Partnership intends to continue to invest substantially all of its assets in the Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Master.

The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2025; when the net asset value per Redeemable Unit for any Class decreases to less than $400 as of the close of business on any business day; or under certain circumstances as set forth in the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”). In addition, the General Partner may, in its sole discretion, cause the Partnership to dissolve if the Partnership’s aggregate net assets decline to less than $1,000,000.

2.	Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates, and those differences could be material.

(formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.)

Notes to Financial Statements

Profit Allocation. The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of Partnership interest owned by each, except that no limited partner is liable for obligations of the Partnership in excess of their capital contributions and profits, if any, net of distributions or redemptions and losses, if any.

c. Statement of Cash Flows. The Partnership has not provided a Statement of Cash Flows, as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 230, “Statement of Cash Flows.” The Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital is included herein, and as of and for the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015~~2016, the Partnership carried no debt and all of the Partnership’s and the Master’s investments were carried at fair value and classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements.

Partnership’s Investment. The Partnership carries its investment in the Master at fair value based on the Master’s net asset value per Redeemable Unit, as a practical expedient, as calculated by the Master.

Master’s Investments. All commodity interests held by the Master, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, are held for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded at fair value (as described in Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements” in the attached Master’s financial statements) at the measurement date. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the measurement date. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated and are determined using the first-in, first-out method. ~~Unrealized~~Net unrealized gains or losses on open contracts are included as a component of equity in trading account in the Master’s Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized gains or losses are included in the Master’s Statements of Income and Expenses. The Master does not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments due to fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in total trading results in the Master’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

e. Income Taxes. Income taxes have not been recorded as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on its share of the Partnership’s income and expenses. The Partnership follows the guidance of ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Partnership’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained “when challenged” or “when examined” by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions determined not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or liability in the Partnership’s Statements of Financial Condition for the current year. If a tax position does not meet the minimum statutory threshold to avoid the incurring of penalties, an expense for the amount of the statutory penalty and interest, if applicable, shall be recognized in the Statements of Income and Expenses in the years in which the position is claimed or expected to be claimed. The General Partner has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Partnership files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The ~~2014~~2015 through ~~2017~~2018 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.

Investment Company Status. Effective January 1, 2014, the Partnership adopted Accounting Standards Update 2013-08, “Financial Services — Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements” and based on the General Partner’s assessment, the Partnership has been deemed to be an investment company since inception. Accordingly, the Partnership follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of Topic 946 and reflects its investments at fair value with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Notes to Financial Statements

Net Income (Loss) per Redeemable Unit. Net income (loss) per Redeemable Unit for each Class is calculated in accordance with ASC 946, “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” See Note 7, “Financial Highlights.”

3.	Agreements:

Limited Partnership Agreement:

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership, including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly General Partner fee in return for its services to the Partnership equal to 1/⁄12 of 1% (1% per year) of month-end Net Assets per Class, for each outstanding Class. Month-end Net Assets per Class, for the purpose of calculating the General Partner fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, incentive fee accrual, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. This fee may be increased or decreased at the discretion of the General Partner.

Management Agreement:

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor, a registered commodity trading advisor. The Management Agreement provides that the Advisor has sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor by the General Partner. The Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/⁄12 of 1.5% (1.5% per year) of month-end Net Assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, allocated to the Advisor. Month-end Net Assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, for the purpose of calculating management fees are Net Assets per Class, for each outstanding Class, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, incentive fee accrual, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Advisor, the General Partner considers, among other factors, the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.

Customer Agreement:

The Partnership has entered into a customer agreement with MS&Co. (the “Partnership Customer Agreement”). Under the Partnership Customer Agreement and the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement (described in Note 4, “Trading Activities”), the Partnership pays trading fees for the clearing and, where applicable, execution of transactions, as well as exchange, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”) through its investment in the Master. Clearing fees are allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of the Master. Clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. All of the Partnership’s assets available for trading in commodity interests not held in the Master’s accounts at MS&Co. are deposited in the Partnership’s account at MS&Co. or at the Master’s counterparty JPMorgan. The Partnership’s cash deposited with MS&Co. is held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. MS&Co. has agreed to pay the Partnership interest on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at MS&Co. at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. Prior to November 1, 2017, MS&Co. paid the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of the Master’s) brokerage account at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. The Partnership Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

d. Selling ~~Agent~~ Agreement:

The Partnership has entered into a selling agent agreement with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (the “Selling Agreement”). Under the Selling Agreement, the Partnership pays Morgan Stanley Wealth Management a monthly ongoing selling agent fee at a rate equal to (i) 2% per year of month-end Net Assets for Class A Redeemable Units and (ii) 0.75% per year of month-end Net Assets for Class D Redeemable Units. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management pays a portion of its ongoing selling agent fees to properly registered or exempted financial advisors who have sold Redeemable Units. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating ongoing selling agent fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s ongoing selling agent fee, management fee, incentive fee accrual, the General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

4.	Trading Activities:

The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets through a “master/feeder” structure. The Partnership’s pro-rata share of the results of the Master’s trading activities are shown in the Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

The Master has entered into a futures brokerage account agreement (the “Master Customer Agreement” and, together with the Partnership Customer Agreement, the “Customer Agreements”) and a foreign exchange brokerage account agreement with MS&Co.

The Customer Agreements give the Partnership and the Master, respectively, the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts. The Partnership and the Master net, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts in the Statements of Financial Condition as the criteria under ASC 210-20, “Balance Sheet,” have been met.

Trading and transaction fees are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisor for the Master and the Partnership’s percentage ownership of the Master. All clearing fees paid to MS&Co. are borne by the Master and allocated to the Master’s limited partners, including the Partnership.

For disclosures regarding the Master’s trading activities, see Note 4, “Trading Activities,” in the attached Master’s financial statements.

5.	Fair Value Measurements:

See Note 5 of the Master’s financial statements for the determination of the fair value of the Master’s investments and related disclosures, including the fair value hierarchy, pursuant to ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.”

6.	Subscriptions, Distributions and Redemptions:

Subscriptions are accepted monthly from investors who become limited partners on the first day of the month after their subscriptions are processed. Distributions are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of the General Partner. No distributions have been made to date. The General Partner does not intend to make any distributions of the Partnership’s profits. A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of the last day of any month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions.

Net investment loss per Redeemable Unit is calculated by dividing the interest income less total expenses by the average number of Redeemable Units outstanding during the year. The net realized and unrealized gains (losses) per Redeemable Unit is a balancing amount necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per Redeemable Unit with the other per unit information.

**	Interest income allocated from the Master less total expenses.

The above ratios and total return may vary for individual investors based on the timing of capital transactions during the year. Additionally, these ratios are calculated for the limited partner class for the Classes using the limited partners’ share of income, expenses and average partners’ capital of the Partnership and include the income and expenses allocated from the Master.

8.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include futures, forwards, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange, a swap execution facility or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded instruments include futures and certain standardized forward, option and swap contracts. Certain swap contracts may also be traded on a swap execution facility or OTC. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and also include certain forward and option contracts. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating to the underlying financial instrument, including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange-traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.

See Note 8, “Financial Instrument Risks,” of the attached Master’s financial statements for risks relating to financial instruments and derivatives that are traded by the Master.

~~Market~~42 risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Master is exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts held and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

Notes to Financial Statements

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Master is exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts held and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Partnership’s and the Master’s risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s and the Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership and the Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership and the Master have credit risk and concentration risk, as MS&Co., an MS&Co. affiliate or JPMorgan are counterparties or brokers with respect to the Partnership’s and the Master’s assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that, through MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate, the Partnership’s and the Master’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Partnership’s and the Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership and the Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forward and option contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

The majority of these financial instruments mature within one year of the inception date. However, due to the nature of the Partnership’s and the Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

In the ordinary course of business, the Master enters into contracts and agreements that contain various representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Master’s maximum exposure under these arrangements cannot be determined, as this could include future claims that have not yet been made against the Master. The Master considers the risk of any future obligation relating to these indemnifications to be remote.

9.	Subsequent Events:

The General Partner evaluates events that occur after the balance sheet date but before and up until financial statements are available to be issued. The General Partner has assessed the subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that, other than disclosed below, there were no subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

42Effective March 6, 2019, Maureen O’Toole resigned as a director of the General Partner.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and changes in its partners’ capital for each of the ~~year~~two ~~ended~~years ~~December 31,~~in ~~2017~~the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The ~~statement of financial condition, including the condensed schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2016, and the related~~ statements of income and expenses and changes in partners’ capital for the year ~~years~~ ended December 31, 2016 ~~and~~was ~~2015 were~~ audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated March 24, 2017, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

Basis for Opinion

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

Our ~~audit~~audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers ~~or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received~~. Our ~~audit~~audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

CMF Winton Master L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

1.	Organization:

CMF Winton Master L.P. (the “Master”) is a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures, option, swap and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, indices, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs. The commodity interests that are traded by the Master are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The General Partner (defined below) may also determine to invest up to all of the Master’s assets in United States (“U.S.”) Treasury bills and/or money market mutual funds, including money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates. The Master may sell an unlimited number of redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”). The Redeemable Units of the Master are used solely for accounting purposes and do not represent units issued legally.

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Master. As of January 1, 2017 the General Partner became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Domestic Holdings, Inc. (“MSD Holdings”). MSD Holdings is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley is a publicly held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Morgan Stanley is engaged in various financial services and other businesses. Prior to January 1, 2017, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC. All trading decisions for the Master are made by the Advisor (defined below).

On November 1, 2004 (commencement of trading operations), Ceres Orion L.P. (formerly, Orion Futures Fund L.P.) (“Orion”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. On July 1, 2005, Institutional Futures Portfolio L.P. (“Institutional Portfolio”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. On February 1, 2007, Ceres Abingdon L.P. (formerly, Managed Futures Premier Abingdon L.P.) (“Abingdon”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. On March 1, 2007, Global Futures Fund Ltd. (“Global Futures”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. On June 1, 2013, Managed Futures Custom Solutions Fund LP – Series A (formerly, Morgan Stanley Managed Futures Custom Solutions Fund LP – Series A) (“Custom Solutions”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. Effective July 31, 2017, Custom Solutions terminated operations and redeemed its investment in the Master. On December 31, 2017, Institutional Portfolio terminated operations and redeemed its investment in the Master. The Master permits commodity pools managed by Winton Capital Management Limited (the “Advisor”) using the Winton Futures Program, the Advisor’s proprietary, systematic trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle.

During the periods covered by this report, the Master’s commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) also was a foreign exchange forward contract counterparty for the Master. The Master ~~also~~deposited ~~deposits~~ a portion of its cash in a non-trading bank account at JPMorgan.

As of ~~the close of business on~~ December 31, ~~2017~~ 2018, the Master operated under a structure where its investors consisted of Orion, Abingdon and Global Futures (each a “Feeder,” and collectively, the “Funds”). References herein to a “Feeder” or the “Funds” may also include as relevant, reference to Institutional Portfolio and Custom Solutions. Orion, ~~Institutional,~~ Abingdon and Global Futures each owned approximately 45.81%, 053.79%, ~~52.6%~~ and 01.90% of the Master ~~prior to the close of business~~ on December 31, ~~2017~~2018, respectively. Orion, Institutional ~~Portfolio~~, Abingdon, ~~Global~~and Global Futures ~~and Custom Solutions~~ each owned approximately 5145.48%, 1.0~~%, 45~~.87%, 152.16% and 0.79% of the Master atprior to the close of business on December 31, ~~2016~~2017, respectively.

Notes to Financial Statements

The Master will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2024; or under certain other circumstances as set forth in the limited partnership agreement of the Master (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

2.	Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

b. Statement of Cash Flows. The Master has not provided a Statement of Cash Flows, as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 230, “Statement of Cash Flows.” The Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital is included herein, and as of and for the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015~~2016, the Master carried no debt and all of the Master’s investments were carried at fair value as classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements.

c. Master’s Investments. All commodity interests held by the Master, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, are held for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded at fair value (as described in Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements”) at the measurement date. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the measurement date. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated and are determined using the first-in, first-out method. ~~Unrealized~~Net unrealized gains or losses on open contracts are included as a component of equity in trading ~~account~~accounts in the Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized gains or losses are reported in the Statements of Income and Expenses. The Master does not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in total trading results in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Master’s Cash. The Master’s restricted and unrestricted cash includes cash denominated in foreign currencies of $162,~~294~~271,~~826~~393 (cost of $162,~~082~~273,~~475~~441) and $816,~~098~~294,~~626~~826 (cost of $816,082,~~720~~475) at December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~2017, respectively.

Income and Expenses Recognition. All of the income and expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading of commodity interests are determined on each valuation day and allocated pro-rata among the Funds at the time of such determination.

CMF Winton Master L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

e. Income Taxes. Income taxes have not been recorded as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on its share of the Master’s income and expenses. The Master follows the guidance of ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Master’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained “when challenged” or “when examined” by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions determined not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or liability in the Master’s Statements of Financial Condition for the current year. If a tax position does not meet the minimum statutory threshold to avoid the incurring of penalties, an expense for the amount of the statutory penalty and interest, if applicable, shall be recognized in the Statements of Income and Expenses in the years in which the position is claimed or expected to be claimed. The General Partner has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Master files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The ~~2014~~2015 through ~~2017~~2018 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.

Investment Company Status. Effective January 1, 2014, the Master adopted Accounting Standards Update 2013-08, “Financial Services—Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements” and based on the General Partner’s assessment, the Master has been deemed to be an investment company since inception. Accordingly, the Master follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of Topic 946 and reflects its investments at fair value with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Net Income (Loss) per Redeemable Unit. Net income (loss) per Redeemable Unit is calculated in accordance with ASC 946, “Financial Services—Investment Companies.” See Note 7, “Financial Highlights.”

3.	Agreements:

Limited Partnership Agreement:

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Master, including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Master.

Management Agreement:

The General Partner, on behalf of the Master, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor, a registered commodity trading advisor. The Advisor is not affiliated with the General Partner or MS&Co. and is not responsible for the organization or operation of the Master. The Management Agreement provides that the Advisor has sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the Master. All management fees in connection with the Management Agreement are borne by the Funds. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

Customer Agreement:

The Master has entered into a customer agreement with MS&Co. (the “Customer Agreement”) and a foreign exchange brokerage account agreement with MS&Co.

CMF Winton Master L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

Under the Customer Agreement and the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement, the Master pays MS&Co. trading fees for the clearing and, where applicable, the execution of transactions. Further, all trading, exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”) are borne by the Master and allocated to the Funds. All other fees are borne by the Funds. The Master’s cash deposited with MS&Co. is held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. The Master’s restricted cash is equal to the cash portion of assets on deposit to meet margin requirements, as determined by the exchange or counterparty, and required by MS&Co. and/or JPMorgan, as applicable. At December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~ 2017, the amount of restricted and unrestricted cash held by the Master for margin requirements was $8940,~~363~~002,~~569~~084 and $6889,~~379~~363,~~250~~569, respectively. The Master’s margin requirement of $76,293,352 as of December 31, 2016 was met from a combination of 1) U.S. Treasury bills held at MS&Co. and 2) restricted cash held at MS&Co. of $68,379,250 as of December 31, 2016. Cash that is not classified as restricted cash is therefore classified as unrestricted cash. The Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

FX Agreement:

On July 12, 2017, the Master entered into certain agreements with JPMorgan in connection with trading in forward foreign currency contracts. These agreements include a foreign exchange and bullion authorization agreement (“FX Agreement”), an International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. master agreement (“Master Agreement”), a schedule to the Master Agreement, a 2016 credit support annex for variation margin to the schedule and an institutional account agreement. Under the FX Agreement, JPMorgan charges a fee on the aggregate foreign currency transactions entered into on behalf of the Master during a month.

4.	Trading Activities:

The Master was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity interests. The results of the Master’s trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

The Customer Agreement gives the Master the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts. The Master nets, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts in the Statements of Financial Condition as the criteria under ASC 210-20, “Balance Sheet,” have been met.

All of the commodity interests owned by the Master are held for trading purposes. The monthly average number of futures contracts traded during the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~2017 were 2319,~~311~~187 and 3223,~~581~~311, respectively. The monthly average number of metals forward contracts traded during the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~2017 were 1,~~131~~769 and ~~936~~1,131, respectively. The monthly average notional values of currency forward contracts traded during the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~2017 were $~~469~~249,~~246~~467,~~019~~ 524 and $~~568~~469,~~484~~246,~~980~~019, respectively.

* In the event of default by the Master, MS&Co., the Master’s commodity futures broker and a counterparty to certain of the Master’s non-exchange-traded contracts, as applicable, and JPMorgan, as a counterparty to certain of the Master’s non-exchange-traded contracts, has the right to offset the Master’s obligation with the Master’s cash and/or U.S. Treasury bills held by MS&Co. or JPMorgan, as applicable, thereby minimizing MS&Co.’s and JPMorgan’s risk of loss. In certain instances, a counterparty may not post collateral and as such, in the event of default by such counterparty, the Master is exposed to the amount shown in the Statements of Financial Condition. In the case of exchange-traded contracts, the Master’s exposure to counterparty risk may be reduced since the exchange’s clearinghouse interposes its credit between buyer and seller and the clearinghouse’s guarantee funds may be available in the event of a default.

5.	Fair Value Measurements:

Master’s Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is defined as the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to fair values derived from unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The fair value of exchange-traded futures, option and forward contracts is determined by the various exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract as of the close of business on the last business day of the reporting period. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is extrapolated on a forward basis from the spot prices quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period from various exchanges. The fair value of non-exchange-traded foreign currency option contracts is calculated by applying an industry standard model application for options valuation of foreign currency options, using as input the spot prices, interest rates, and option implied volatilities quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period. U.S. Treasury bills are valued at the last available bid price received from independent pricing services as of the close of the last business day of the reporting period.

The Master considers prices for commodity futures, exchange-traded swap and option contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1). The values of U.S. Treasury bills, non-exchange-traded forward, swap and certain option contracts for which market quotations are not readily available are priced by pricing services that derive fair values for those assets and liabilities from observable inputs (Level 2). As of and for the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and ~~2016~~ 2017, the Master did not hold any derivative instruments that were priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of the General Partner’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). ~~Transfers between levels are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period.~~

* $1,925,249 of assets and $4,518,912 of liabilities were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2017. The General Partner believes that for London Metals Exchange (“LME”) contracts, the inputs are derived from an exchange and not actively quoted prices, which is more representative of a Level 2 security.

6.	Subscriptions, Distributions and Redemptions:

Subscriptions are accepted monthly from investors who become limited partners on the first day of the month after their subscriptions are processed. Distributions are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of the General Partner. No distributions have been made to date. The General Partner does not intend to make any distributions of the Master’s profits, except for distribution of interest income to feeder funds, as applicable. A limited partner may withdraw all or part of its capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from the Master as of the end of any month (the “Redemption Date”) after a request for redemption has been made to the General Partner at least three days in advance of the Redemption Date. Such withdrawals are classified as a liability when the limited partner elects to redeem and informs the Master.

7.	Financial Highlights:

Financial highlights for the limited partner class as a whole for the years ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~2015~~2016 were as as follows:

	2017			2016			2015
	2018			2017			2016
Per Redeemable Unit Performance (for a unit outstanding throughout the year):*
Net realized and unrealized gains (losses)	$	~~417~~(113.4856)		$	58417.48		$	~~157~~58.4348
Net investment income (loss)		2263.3842			422.5338			(4.~~31)~~53
Increase (decrease) for the year		~~439~~(50.8614)			63439.0186			~~153~~63.1201
Distribution of interest income to feeder funds		(2564.2861)			(125.6328)			(01.4063)
Net asset value per Redeemable Unit, beginning of year		34,~~784~~198.3997			3,~~723~~784.0139			3,~~570~~723.2901
Net asset value per Redeemable Unit, end of year	$	4,~~198~~084.9722		$	34,~~784~~198.3997		$	3,~~723~~784.0139
Ratios to Average Limited Partners’ Capital:
Net investment income (loss)**		01.65	%		0.16	%		(0.1)	%
Operating expenses		0.1	%		0.1	%		0.1	%
Total return		11(1.62)	%		111.76	%		41.37	%

Net investment income (loss) per Redeemable Unit is calculated by dividing the interest income less total expenses by the average number of Redeemable Units outstanding during the year. The net realized and unrealized gains (losses) per Redeemable Unit is a balancing amount necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per Redeemable Unit with the other per unit information.

**	Interest income less total expenses.

The above ratios and total return may vary for individual investors based on the timing of capital transactions during the year. Additionally, these ratios are calculated for the limited partner class using the limited partners’ share of income, expenses and average partners’ capital.

8.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Master is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange, a swap execution facility or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded instruments include futures and certain standardized forward, option and swap contracts. Certain swap contracts may also be traded on a swap execution facility or OTC. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and also include certain forward and option contracts. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments, including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange-traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract. The General Partner estimates that at any given time approximately 012.09 % to 4446.56% of the Master’s contracts are traded OTC.

Futures Contracts. The Master trades futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of investments, currency or a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, at a specified price on a specified future date, unless the contract is closed before the delivery date or the delivery quantity is something where physical delivery cannot occur (such as the S&P 500 Index), whereby such contract is settled in cash. Payments (“variation margin”) may be made or received by the Master each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Master. When the contract is closed, the Master records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in futures contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits, through the futures broker, ~~directly~~ with the exchange on which the contracts are traded. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Forward foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Master agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued daily, and the Master’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively, and are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Notes to Financial Statements

London Metals Exchange Forward Contracts. Metal contracts traded on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”) represent a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, tin or zinc. LME contracts traded by the Master are cash settled based on prompt dates published by the LME. Variation margin may be made or received by the Master each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Master. A contract is considered offset when all long positions have been matched with a like number of short positions settling on the same prompt date. When the contract is closed at the prompt date, the Master records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in LME contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits, through the broker, ~~directly~~ with the LME. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on metal contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Master is exposed to market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts held and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Master’s risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Master has credit risk and concentration risk, as MS&Co., an MS&Co. affiliate or JPMorgan are counterparties or brokers with respect to the Master’s assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that, through MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate, the Master’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and, accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forward and option contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

The majority of these instruments mature within one year of the inception date. However, due to the nature of the Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

9.	Subsequent Events:

The General Partner evaluates events that occur after the balance sheet date but before and up until financial statements are available to be issued. The General Partner has assessed the subsequent events through March 2219, ~~2018~~2019, the date the financial statements were available to be issued and has determined that, other than disclosed below, there were no subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure. Not applicable.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

The Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership on the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods expected in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports it files is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of the General Partner, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.

The General Partner is responsible for ensuring that there is an adequate and effective process for establishing, maintaining and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures for the Partnership’s external disclosures.

The General Partner’s President and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, ~~2017~~2018 and, based on that evaluation, the General Partner’s President and CFO have concluded that at that date the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process under the supervision of the General Partner’s President and CFO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These controls include policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;

•

provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) the Partnership’s receipts are handled and expenditures are made only pursuant to authorizations of the General Partner; and

•

The report included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” includes the General Partner’s report on internal control over financial reporting (“Management’s Report”).

There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, ~~2017~~2018 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
