PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business. Ceres Tactical Systematic L.P. (formerly, Tactical Diversified Futures Fund L.P.) (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York on December 3, 2002 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 commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership 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 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.

A Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the public offering of 300,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) became effective March 27, 2003. Between March 27, 2003 (commencement of the offering period) and April 30, 2003, 36,616 Redeemable Units were publicly offered at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit. The proceeds of the initial public offering were held in an escrow account until April 30, 2003, at which time they were turned over to the Partnership for trading.

A second Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the public offering of 1,000,000 Redeemable Units (including the 300,000 Redeemable Units that had been previously registered) became effective on December 4, 2003. As of that date, 260,732.3028 Redeemable Units had been sold.

A third Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the public offering of 2,000,000 Redeemable Units (including the 1,000,000 Redeemable Units that had been previously registered) became effective on October 7, 2004. As of that date, 807,449.3782 Redeemable Units had been sold.

A fourth Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the public offering of 2,000,000 Redeemable Units previously registered became effective on June 30, 2005. As of that date, 1,027,701.7549 Redeemable Units had been sold. The public offering of Redeemable Units terminated on November 30, 2008. The Partnership currently privately and continuously offers 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, 2024, 2023 and 2022 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. The General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Capital Management LLC (“MSCM”). MSCM 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.

During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Partnership’s commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant.

As of December 31, 2024, all trading decisions were made for the Partnership by DCM Systematic Advisors SA (“DCM”), Drury Capital, Inc. (“Drury”), Episteme Capital Partners (UK) LLP, Episteme Capital Partners (US) LLC, and Episteme Capital Partners (Cayman) LTD (collectively, “Episteme”), and Millburn Ridgefield Corporation (“Millburn”) (each an “Advisor” and, collectively, the “Advisors”), each of which is a registered commodity trading advisor, or has otherwise represented that it is exempt from registration as a commodity trading advisor. Effective December 31, 2022, the General Partner terminated ISAM Systematic Management (“ISAM SM”) as an Advisor to the Partnership. Reference herein to “Advisors” may include, as relevant, ISAM SM. Each Advisor is allocated a portion of the Partnership’s assets to manage. The Partnership invests or invested the portion of its assets allocated to each of the Advisors through individually managed accounts.

Effective January 1, 2020, Millburn directly trades the Partnership’s assets allocated to it through a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to Millburn’s Multi-Markets Program. The General Partner and Millburn have agreed that Millburn will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to Millburn at a level that is up to 1 times the amount of assets allocated. The amount of leverage may be increased or decreased in the future, but it may not exceed 2 times the amount of assets allocated. Effective November 1, 2020, Episteme directly trades the Partnership’s assets allocated to them through a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to Episteme’s Systematic Quest Program. The General Partner and Episteme have agreed that Episteme will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to Episteme at a level that is up to 1.5 times the amount of assets allocated. The amount of leverage may be increased or decreased in the future, but it may not exceed 2 times the amount of assets allocated. Effective January 1, 2021, DCM directly trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets allocated to it through a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to DCM’s Diversified Alpha Program. The General Partner and DCM have agreed that DCM will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to DCM at a level that is 1.75 times the amount of assets allocated. The amount of leverage maybe increased or decreased in the future but may not exceed 2 times the amount of assets allocated. Effective February 1, 2023, Drury trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets allocated to it through a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to Drury Diversified Trend-Following Program.

Prior to its termination effective December 31, 2022, ISAM SM directly traded the Partnership’s assets allocated to it through a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to ISAM SM’s Systematic Trend Programme.

The Partnership pays MS&Co. trading fees for clearing and, where applicable, execution of transactions.

The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: (1) December 31, 2052; (2) the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of any business day; or (3) the occurrence of certain other circumstances as set forth in the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to the trading programs discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2024.

As of January 1, 2018, the Partnership began offering three classes of limited partnership interests, Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units. All Redeemable Units issued prior to January 1, 2018 were deemed Class A Redeemable Units. The rights, liabilities, risks, and fees associated with investment in Class A Redeemable Units were not changed. Class A Redeemable Units are available to taxable U.S. individuals and institutions, U.S. tax exempt individuals and institutions, and non-U.S. investors. Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units were first issued on January 1, 2018. 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 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 certain employees of Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries (and their family members). In the future, Class Z Redeemable Units may also be offered to certain limited partners who receive advisory services from Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, doing business as Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”). Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units are identical, except that they are subject to different monthly ongoing selling agent fees. Class A 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 A Redeemable Units as of the end of each month. 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 Redeemable Units as of the end of each month. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee.

The Partnership’s trading of futures, forward and option contracts, as applicable, on commodities is done primarily on U.S. and foreign commodity exchanges. The Partnership engages in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with MS&Co.

The Partnership pays clearing fees, ongoing selling agent fees, General Partner fees, management fees, incentive fees and professional fees.

For the period January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, the approximate average market sector distribution for the Partnership was as follows:

LOGO

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 General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000. The Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly fee equal to 1/12 of 0.875% (0.875% per year) of month-end net assets of the Partnership. Month-end net assets, for purposes 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 fees, incentive fee accruals, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The General Partner fee is allocated proportionately to each Class based on the net asset value of the respective Class.

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into management agreements (each a “Management Agreement”) with the Advisors. The Advisors are not affiliated with one another, are not affiliated with the General Partner or MS&Co., and are not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership. Each Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Partnership pays to DCM a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 0.75% (0.75% per year) of month-end net assets of the Partnership allocated to DCM. Effective February 1, 2023, the Partnership pays to Drury a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 0.50% (0.50% per year) of month-end net assets of the Partnership allocated to Drury. Effective November 1, 2020, the Partnership pays to Episteme a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.0% (1.0% per year) of month-end net assets of the Partnership allocated to Episteme. Effective January 1, 2020, the Partnership pays to Millburn a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 0.25%, 0.375% or 0.50% (0.25%, 0.375% or 0.5% per year), depending on account leverage, of month-end net assets of the Partnership allocated to Millburn. Month-end net assets, for purposes of calculating management fees, are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. An Advisor’s management fee is allocated proportionately to each Class based on the net asset value of the respective Class.

Prior to its termination effective December 31, 2022, the Partnership paid to ISAM SM a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.0% (1.0% per year) of month end net assets of the Partnership allocated to ISAM SM.

In addition, effective January 1, 2021, the Partnership is obligated to pay DCM an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 15% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by DCM. Effective February 1, 2023, the Partnership is obligated to pay Drury an incentive fee, payable annually, equal to 25% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by Drury. Effective November 1, 2020, the Partnership is obligated to pay Episteme an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 22.5% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by Episteme. Effective January 1, 2020, the Partnership is obligated to pay Millburn an incentive fee, payable annually, equal to 28% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by Millburn. To the extent an Advisor incurs a loss for the Partnership, 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. An Advisor’s incentive fee is allocated proportionately to each Class based on the net asset value of the respective Class.

Prior to its termination effective December 31, 2022, ISAM SM was eligible to receive an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 25% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by ISAM SM.

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, 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 (“NFA”) fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”). Clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. The Partnership’s cash deposited with MS&Co. were held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. The Partnership’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. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the amount of cash held by the Partnership for margin requirements was $7,990,887 and $9,285,004, respectively. Cash that is not classified as restricted cash is therefore classified as unrestricted cash. The Partnership receives monthly interest on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s brokerage account at MS&Co. during each month at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. For purposes of these interest credits, daily funds did not include monies due to futures, forward, or option contracts that had not been received. The Partnership Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

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

As of November 1, 2018, the Partnership entered into an alternative investment placement agent agreement (the “Harbor Selling Agreement”), by and among the Partnership, the General Partner, Morgan Stanley Distribution Inc. (“MSDI”) and Harbor Investment Advisory, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Harbor”), which supersedes and replaces the alternative investment selling agent agreement, dated January 19, 2018, between the Partnership, the General Partner and Harbor. Pursuant to the Harbor Selling Agreement, MSDI and Harbor have been appointed as a non-exclusive selling agent and sub-selling agent, respectively, of the Partnership for the purpose of finding eligible investors for Redeemable Units through offerings that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and for Harbor to serve as an investment advisor to its customers investing in one or more of the partnerships party to the Harbor Selling Agreement; provided, that, included within such appointment, Harbor will provide certain services to certain holders of Redeemable Units of the Partnership, who had acquired such Redeemable Units prior to such holders becoming clients of Harbor. The Harbor Selling Agreement continues in effect until September 30, 2025 unless terminated in certain circumstances as set forth in the Harbor Selling Agreement, including by any party on thirty days’ prior written notice, after which the General Partner or the Partnership may, in its sole discretion, renew the Harbor Selling Agreement for additional one year periods. Pursuant to the Harbor Selling Agreement, the Partnership pays Harbor an ongoing selling agent fee equal to 1/12 of 0.75% (a 0.75% annual rate) of the adjusted month-end net asset value per Redeemable Unit for certain holders of Class A Redeemable Units in the Partnership. The Partnership pays Harbor an ongoing selling agent fee equal to 1/12 of 0.75% (a 0.75% annual rate) of the adjusted month-end net asset value per Redeemable Unit for certain holders of Class D Redeemable Units in the Partnership.

The General Partner has 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 capital as of December 31, 2024 was $48,049,570.

See Paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

(i) through (xii) — Not applicable.

(xiii) — The Partnership has no employees.

(d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas. The Partnership does not engage in the sale 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.

(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. 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, changing interest rates, pandemics, epidemics and other public health crises.

An investor may lose all of their investment.

Due to the speculative nature of trading commodity interests, an investor could lose all of their 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 clearing fees, the General Partner fee, ongoing selling agent fees and management fees. Substantial incentive fees may be paid to one or more of the Advisors even if the Partnership experiences a net loss for the full year.

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

An investor’s ability to redeem or transfer 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 fact that:

The General Partner and the Partnership’s commodity brokers are affiliates;

Each of the Advisors, the Partnership’s commodity brokers, 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; and

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

Investing in Redeemable Units may 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 Advisors’ trading strategies may not perform as they have performed in the past and past performance does not necessarily predict future returns. The Advisors have 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.

The General Partner may allocate the Partnership’s assets to undisclosed advisors.

The General Partner at any time may select and allocate the Partnership’s assets to undisclosed advisors. Investors may not be advised of such changes in advance or at all. Investors must rely on the ability of the General Partner to select commodity trading advisors and allocate assets among them.

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

Regulatory costs or 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 trading in swaps and 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, to mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements 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 adopted 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. In January 2021, the CFTC finalized new rules that impose position limits on certain futures and option contracts and physical commodity swaps that are “economically equivalent” to such contracts. In addition to speculative position limits, most commodity exchanges also limit fluctuations in futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” or “daily limits.” Such regulations could have an adverse effect on an Advisor’s trading for the Partnership. The trading instructions of an Advisor may have to be modified, and positions held by the Partnership 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 liquidated positions.

The General Partner, the Partnership and their respective service providers (including the Advisors) and 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 their respective service providers and 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 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 whether a cyber event will adversely affect the cyber systems of the Advisors or other third-party service providers.

Tax laws are subject to change at any time.

Tax laws and court and Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) interpretations thereof are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect.

Prospective investors are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to regulatory or administrative developments and proposals, and their potential effects on them based on their unique circumstances.

Beginning in February 2022, the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and a number of other nations imposed sanctions against Russia in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and these and other governments around the world may impose additional sanctions in the future as the conflict develops. In addition, the armed conflict between Israel and Hamas and subsequent sanctions have created volatility in the price of various commodities and may lead to a deterioration in the political and trade relationships that exist between the countries involved and have a negative impact on business activity globally, and therefore could affect the performance of the Partnership’s investments. Furthermore, uncertainties regarding these conflicts and the varying involvement of the United States and other countries preclude prediction as to the ultimate impact on global economic and market conditions, and, as a result, presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Partnership and the performance of its investments or operations, and the ability of the Partnership to achieve its investment objectives. Additionally, to the extent that investors, service providers and/or other third parties have material operations or assets in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine or Israel, they may have their operations disrupted and/or suffer adverse consequences related to the ongoing conflicts.

Item 1C.

Cybersecurity

Risk management and strategy

The Partnership has no directors or executive officers and its affairs are managed by its General Partner. The General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MSCM. MSCM is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley, its businesses, the General Partner, the Partnership, and the broader financial services industry face an increasingly complex and evolving threat environment. Morgan Stanley has made and continues to make substantial investments in cybersecurity and fraud prevention technology, and employ experienced talent to lead its Cybersecurity and Information Security organizations and program under the oversight of the Morgan Stanley Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Operations and Technology Committee of the Board (the “BOTC”). See “Risk Factors – The General Partner, the Partnership, the Funds and their respective service providers (including the Advisors) and operations are potentially vulnerable to cyber-security attacks or incidents” for information on risks to the Partnership from cybersecurity threats.

Table of Contents

As part of its enterprise risk management (“ERM”) framework, Morgan Stanley has implemented and maintains a program to assess, identify and manage risks arising from the cybersecurity threats (the “Cybersecurity Program”). The Cybersecurity Program has been adopted by the General Partner, and applies to its business, as relevant. The Cybersecurity Program helps protect Morgan Stanley’s clients, customers, employees, property, products, services and reputation by seeking to preserve the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information, enable the secure delivery of financial services, and protect the business and the safe operation of Morgan Stanley’s technology systems. Morgan Stanley continually adjusts the Cybersecurity Program to address the evolving cybersecurity threat landscape and comply with extensive legal and regulatory expectations.

Processes for assessing, identifying and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats

The Cybersecurity Program takes into account industry best practices and addresses risks from cybersecurity threats to Morgan Stanley’s network, infrastructure, computing environment and the third parties that Morgan Stanley, and its affiliates rely on. Morgan Stanley periodically assesses the design of its cybersecurity controls against the Cyber Risk Institute Cyber Profile, which is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) Cybersecurity Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity, as well as global cybersecurity regulations, and develops improvements to those controls in response to that assessment. The Cybersecurity Program also includes cybersecurity and information security policies, procedures and technologies that are designed to address regulatory requirements and to protect clients’, employees’ and Morgan Stanley’s own data against unauthorized disclosure, modification and misuse. These policies, procedures and technologies cover a broad range of areas, including: identification of internal and external threats, access control, data security, protective controls, detection of malicious or unauthorized activity, incident response, and recovery planning.

The threat intelligence function within the Cybersecurity Program actively engages in private and public information sharing communities and leverages both commercial and proprietary products to collect a wide variety of industry and governmental information regarding the latest cybersecurity threats, which informs the cybersecurity risk assessments and strategy. This information is also provided to an internal forensics team, which develops and implements technologies designed to help detect these cybersecurity threats. Where a potential threat is identified, an incident response team evaluates the potential impact, and coordinates remediation where required. These groups, as well as Morgan Stanley’s Operational Risk Department (the “Operational Risk Department”), review external cybersecurity incidents that may be relevant to Morgan Stanley and its affiliates, and the outcomes of these incidents further inform the design of the Cybersecurity Program. In addition, Morgan Stanley maintains a robust global training program on cybersecurity risks and requirements and conducts regular phishing email simulations for its employees and consultants.

The cybersecurity processes are designed to help oversee, identify and mitigate risks associated with Morgan Stanley’s use of third-party vendors. Morgan Stanley maintains a third-party risk management program that includes evaluation of, and response to, cybersecurity risks at its third-party vendors. Prior to engaging third-party vendors to provide services, Morgan Stanley conducts assessments of the third-party vendors’ cybersecurity programs to identify the impact of their services on the cybersecurity risks to Morgan Stanley. Once

on-boarded,

third-party vendors’ cybersecurity programs are subject to risk-based oversight, which may include security questionnaires, submission of independent security audit reports or an audit of the third-party vendor’s security program, and, with limited exceptions, third-party vendors are required to meet Morgan Stanley’s cybersecurity standards. Where a third-party vendor cannot meet those standards, its services, and the residual risk, are subject to review, challenge and escalation through Morgan Stanley’s risk management processes and ERM committees, which may ultimately result in requesting increased security measures or ceasing engagement with such third-party vendor.

The Cybersecurity Program is regularly assessed by Morgan Stanley’s Internal Audit Department (“IAD”) through various assurance activities, with the results reported to the Audit Committee of the Board (“BAC”) and the BOTC. Annually, certain elements of the Cybersecurity Program are subject to an audit by an independent consultant, as well as an assessment by a separate, independent third party, the results of which, including opportunities identified for improvement and related remediation plans, are reviewed with the BOTC. The Cybersecurity Program is also examined regularly by Morgan Stanley’s prudential and conduct regulators within the scope of their jurisdiction.

Governance

Morgan Stanley Management’s role in assessing and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats

The Cybersecurity Program is operated and maintained by management, including Morgan Stanley’s Chief Information Officer of Cyber, Data, Risk and Resilience (“CIO”) and Morgan Stanley’s Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”). These senior officers are responsible for assessing and managing the Firm’s cybersecurity risks. The General Partner adheres to the Cybersecurity Program’s policies and participates in periodic testing. The Cybersecurity Program strategy, which is set by the CISO and overseen by the Head of the Operational Risk Department, is informed by various risk and control assessments, control testing, external assessments, threat intelligence, and public and private information sharing. The Cybersecurity Program also includes processes for escalating and considering the materiality of incidents that impact Morgan Stanley and its affiliates, including escalation to senior management and the Board, which are periodically tested through tabletop exercises.

The members of management that lead the Cybersecurity Program and strategy have extensive experience in technology, cybersecurity and information security. The CIO has over 30 years of experience in various engineering, IT, operations and information security roles. The CISO has over 25 years of experience leading cybersecurity teams at financial institutions, including in the areas of IT strategy, risk management and information security. The Head of the Operational Risk Department has over 20 years of experience in technology, security and compliance roles, including experience in government security agencies.

Risk levels and mitigating measures are presented to and monitored by dedicated management-level cybersecurity risk committees. These committees include representatives from management as well as business and control stakeholders who review, challenge and, where appropriate, consider exceptions to its policies and procedures. Significant cybersecurity risks are escalated from these committees to Morgan Stanley’s

non-financial

risk committee. The CIO and the Head of the Operational Risk Department report on the status of the Cybersecurity Program, including significant cybersecurity risks; review metrics related to the program; and discuss the status of regulatory and remedial actions and incidents to Morgan Stanley’s

non-financial

risk committee, the BOTC and the Board, as appropriate.

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 Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC 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.” or “the Company”).

The Company 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 the Company. As a consolidated subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, the Company does not file its own periodic reports with the SEC that contain descriptions of material litigation, proceedings and investigations. As a result, we refer you to the “Legal Proceedings” section of Morgan Stanley’s SEC 10-K filings for 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020. In addition, the Company 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. We refer you to the Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies – Legal section of the Company’s 2023 Audited Financial Statement.

In addition to the matters described in those filings, in the normal course of business, each of Morgan Stanley and the Company 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 actual or threatened legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. In some cases, the third-party entities that are, or would otherwise be, the primary defendants in such cases are bankrupt, in financial distress, or may not honor applicable indemnification obligations. These actions have included, but are not limited to, antitrust claims, claims under various false claims act statutes, and matters arising from our sales and trading businesses and our activities in the capital markets.

Each of Morgan Stanley and the Company is also involved, from time to time, in other reviews, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal) by governmental or other regulatory agencies regarding the Company’s business and involving, among other matters, sales, trading, financing, prime brokerage, market-making activities, investment banking advisory services, capital market activities, financial products or offerings sponsored, underwritten, or sold by the Company, wealth and investment management services, and accounting and operational matters, certain of which may result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, disgorgement, restitution, forfeiture, injunctions, limitations on our ability to conduct certain business, or other relief.

The Company 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, the Company is registered as a futures commission merchant and is a member of the National Futures Association.

During the preceding five years, the following administrative, civil, or criminal actions pending, on appeal or concluded against the Company or any of its principals are material within the meaning of CFTC Rule 4.24(l)(2) or 4.34(k)(2):

Regulatory and Governmental Matters

On January 12, 2024, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York (“USAO”) and the SEC announced they had reached settlement agreements with the Company in connection with their investigations into the Company’s blocks business. Specifically, the Company entered into a three-year non-prosecution agreement (“NPA”) with the USAO that included the payment of forfeiture, restitution, and a criminal fine for making false statements in connection with the sale of certain block trades from 2018 through August 2021. The NPA required the Company to admit responsibility for certain acts of its employees and to continue to cooperate with and provide certain information to the USAO for the term of the agreement. Additionally, the SEC charged the Company with violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5(b) thereunder for the disclosure of confidential information about block trades and also violations of Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act for the failure to enforce its policies concerning the misuse of material non-public information related to block trades. As part of the SEC agreement, the Company paid disgorgement and a civil penalty. After the agreed-upon credits were applied, the Company paid a total amount of approximately $249 million under both settlements.

On September 30, 2020, the SEC entered into a settlement order with the Company settling an administrative action which relates to the Company’s violations of the order marking requirements of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act resulting from its improper use of aggregation units in structuring the Company’s equity swaps business. The order found that the Company improperly operated its equity swaps business without netting certain “long” and “short” positions as required by Rule 200(c) of Regulation SHO. The order found that the long exposure to an equity security (the “Long Unit”) and the short exposure to an equity security (the “Short Unit”) were not independent from one another and did not have separate trading strategies or objectives without regard to each other, and that the Long and Short Units were not eligible for the exception in Rule 200(f) of Regulation SHO. The order found that the Company willfully violated Section 200(g) of Regulation SHO. The Company consented, without admitting or denying the findings and without adjudication of any issue of law or fact, to a censure; to cease and desist from committing or causing future violations; to pay a civil penalty of $5 million; and to comply with the undertaking enumerated in the order.

The Firm has reached agreements in principle with two regulatory agencies—the SEC for $125 million and the CFTC for $75 million— to resolve record-keeping related investigations by those agencies relating to business communications on messaging platforms that had not been approved by the Firm. The Company was one of the entities involved in these investigations, and has recognized a provision of $63 million in anticipation of concluding the settlement with the SEC. On September 27, 2022, the Firm’s settlements with the SEC and the CFTC became effective.

Civil Litigation

On May 17, 2013, the plaintiff in IKB International S.A. in Liquidation, et al. v. Morgan Stanley, et al. filed a complaint against the Company and certain affiliates in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County (“Supreme Court of NY”). The complaint alleges that defendants made material misrepresentations and omissions in the sale to the plaintiff of certain mortgage pass-through certificates backed by securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans. The total amount of certificates allegedly sponsored, underwritten and/or sold by the Company to the plaintiff was approximately $133 million. The complaint alleges causes of action against the Company for common law fraud, fraudulent concealment, aiding and abetting fraud, and negligent misrepresentation, and seeks, inter alia, compensatory and punitive damages. On October 29, 2014, the court granted in part and denied in part the Company’s motion to dismiss. All claims regarding four certificates were dismissed. After these dismissals, the remaining amount of certificates allegedly issued by the Company or sold to the plaintiff by the Company was approximately $116 million. On August 11, 2016, the Appellate Division affirmed the trial court’s order denying in part the Company’s motion to dismiss the complaint. On July 15, 2022, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment on all remaining claims. On March 1, 2023, the court granted in part and denied in part the Company’s motion for summary judgment, narrowing the alleged misrepresentations at issue in the case. On March 26, 2024, the Appellate Division affirmed the trial court’s summary judgment order. On August 27, 2024, the plaintiff notified the court that in light of the court’s rulings to exclude certain evidence at trial, the plaintiff could not prove its claims at trial, and requested that the court dismiss the case, subject to its right to appeal the evidentiary rulings. On August 28, 2024, the court dismissed the case, and judgment was entered in the Company’s favor. The plaintiff has filed notices of appeal.

Beginning in February of 2016, the Company was named as a defendant in multiple purported antitrust class actions now consolidated into a single proceeding in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”) styled In Re: Interest Rate Swaps Antitrust Litigation. Plaintiffs allege, inter alia, that the Company, together with a number of other financial institution defendants, violated U.S. and New York state antitrust laws from 2008 through December of 2016 in connection with alleged efforts to prevent the development of electronic exchange-based platforms for interest rate swaps trading. Complaints were filed both on behalf of a purported class of investors who purchased interest rate swaps from defendants, as well as on behalf of three operators of swap execution facilities that allegedly were thwarted by the defendants in their efforts to develop such platforms. The consolidated complaints seek, inter alia, certification of the investor class of plaintiffs and treble damages. On July 28, 2017, the court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaints. On December 15, 2023, the court denied the class plaintiffs’ motion for class certification. On December 29, 2023, the class plaintiffs petitioned the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit for leave to appeal that decision. On February 28, 2024, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the class claims. On July 11, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement.

On August 13, 2021, the plaintiff in Camelot Event Driven Fund, a Series of Frank Funds Trust v. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al. filed in the Supreme Court of NY a purported class action complaint alleging violations of federal securities laws against ViacomCBS (“Viacom”), certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters, including the Company, of two March 2021 Viacom offerings: a $1,700 million Viacom Class B Common Stock offering and a $1,000 million offering of 5.75% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Offerings”). The complaint seeks certification of the class of plaintiffs and unspecified compensatory damages and alleges, inter alia, that the Viacom offering documents for both issuances contained material misrepresentations and omissions because they did not disclose that certain of the underwriters, including the Company, had prime brokerage relationships and/or served as counterparties to certain derivative transactions with Archegos Capital Management LP (“Archegos”), a fund with significant exposure to Viacom securities across multiple prime brokers. The complaint also alleges that the offering documents did not adequately disclose the risks associated with Archegos’s concentrated Viacom positions at the various prime brokers, including that the unwind of those positions could have a deleterious impact on the stock price of Viacom. On November 5, 2021, the complaint was amended to add allegations that defendants failed to disclose that certain underwriters, including the Company, had intended to unwind Archegos’s Viacom positions while simultaneously distributing the Offerings. On February 6, 2023, the court issued a decision denying motions to dismiss as to the Company and the other underwriters, but granting the motion to dismiss as to Viacom and the Viacom individual defendants. On February 15, 2023, the underwriters, including the Company, filed their notices of appeal of the denial of their motions to dismiss. On March 10, 2023, the plaintiff appealed the dismissal of Viacom and the individual Viacom defendants. On April 4, 2024, the Appellate Division upheld the lower court’s decision as to the Company and other underwriter defendants that had prime brokerage relationships and/or served as counterparties to certain derivative transactions with Archegos, dismissed the remaining underwriters, and upheld the dismissal of Viacom and its officers and directors. On July 25, 2024, the Appellate Division denied the plaintiff’s and the Company’s respective motions for leave to reargue or appeal the April 4, 2024 decision. On January 4, 2024, the court granted the plaintiff’s motion for class certification, which the defendants have appealed.

The Company is a defendant in three antitrust class action complaints which have been consolidated into one proceeding in the United States District Court for the SDNY under the caption City of Philadelphia, et al. v. Bank of America Corporation, et al. Plaintiffs allege, inter alia, that the Company, together with a number of other financial institution defendants, violated U.S. antitrust laws and relevant state laws in connection with alleged efforts to artificially inflate interest rates for Variable Rate Demand Obligations (“VRDO”). The consolidated complaint seeks, inter alia, certification of the class of plaintiffs and treble damages. The complaint was filed on behalf of a class of municipal issuers of VRDO for which defendants served as remarketing agent. On November 2, 2020, the court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint, dismissing state law claims, but denying dismissal of the U.S. antitrust claims. On September 21, 2023, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion for class certification. On February 5, 2024, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted leave to appeal that decision.

On February 21, 2025, the U.K. Competition and Markets Authority announced a settlement with an affiliate of the Company, as well as other financial institutions, in connection with its investigation of suspected anti-competitive arrangements in the financial services sector, specifically regarding the affiliate’s activities concerning certain liquid fixed income products between 2009 and 2012. Separately, on June 16, 2023, the affiliate and the Company, together with a number of other financial institutions, were named as defendants in a purported antitrust class action in the United States District Court for the SDNY styled Oklahoma Firefighters Pension and Retirement System v. Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, et al., alleging, inter alia, that they violated U.S. antitrust laws in connection with their alleged effort to fix prices of gilts traded in the United States between 2009 and 2013. The complaint seeks, inter alia, certification of the class of plaintiffs and treble damages. On September 16, 2024, the court granted defendants’ joint motion to dismiss, and the complaint was dismissed without prejudice. The Firm and other defendants have reached an agreement in principle to settle the U.S. litigation.

Settled Civil Litigation

On August 18, 2009, Relators Roger Hayes and C. Talbot Heppenstall, Jr., filed a qui tam action in New Jersey state court styled State of New Jersey ex. rel. Hayes v. Bank of America Corp., et al. The complaint, filed under seal pursuant to the New Jersey False Claims Act, alleged that the Company and several other underwriters of municipal bonds had defrauded New Jersey issuers by misrepresenting that they would achieve the best price or lowest cost of capital in connection with certain municipal bond issuances. On March 17, 2016, the court entered an order unsealing the complaint. On November 17, 2017, Relators filed an amended complaint to allege the Company mispriced certain bonds issued in twenty-three bond offerings between 2008 and 2017, having a total par amount of $6,900 million. The complaint sought, among other relief, treble damages. On February 22, 2018, the Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint, and on July 17, 2018, the court denied the Company’s motion. On October 13, 2021, following a series of voluntary and involuntary dismissals, Relators limited their claims to certain bonds issued in five offerings the Company underwrote between 2008 and 2011, having a total par amount of $3,900 million. On August 22, 2023, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the litigation. The final agreement became effective on January 30, 2024.

On July 15, 2010, China Development Industrial Bank (“CDIB”) filed a complaint against the Company, styled China Development Industrial Bank v. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated et al., in the Supreme Court of NY. The complaint related to a $275 million credit default swap (“CDS”) referencing the super senior portion of the STACK 2006-1 CDO. The complaint asserted claims for common law fraud, fraudulent inducement and fraudulent concealment and alleges that the Company misrepresented the risks of the STACK 2006-1 CDO to CDIB, and that the Company knew that the assets backing the CDO were of poor quality when it entered into the CDS with CDIB. On March 22, 2021, the parties entered into a settlement agreement. On April 16, 2021, the court entered a stipulation of voluntary discontinuance, with prejudice.

On October 15, 2010, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago filed a complaint against the Company and other defendants in the Circuit Court of the State of Illinois, styled Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago v. Bank of America Funding Corporation et al. A corrected amended complaint was filed on April 8, 2011, which alleged that defendants made untrue statements and material omissions in the sale to plaintiff of a number of mortgage pass-through certificates backed by securitization trusts containing residential mortgage loans and asserts claims under Illinois law. The total amount of certificates allegedly sold to plaintiff by the Company at issue in the action was approximately $203 million. The complaint sought, inter alia, to rescind the plaintiff’s purchase of such certificates. On November 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to settle the litigation.

In August of 2017, the Company was named as a defendant in a purported antitrust class action in the United States District Court for the SDNY styled Iowa Public Employees’ Retirement System et al. v. Bank of America Corporation et al. Plaintiffs alleged, inter alia, that the Company, together with a number of other financial institution defendants, violated U.S. antitrust laws and New York state law in connection with their alleged efforts to prevent the development of electronic exchange-based platforms for securities lending. The complaint was filed on behalf of a purported class of borrowers and lenders who entered into stock loan transactions with the defendants. The complaint sought, inter alia, certification of the class of plaintiffs and treble damages. On September 27, 2018, the court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification was referred by the District Court to a magistrate judge who, on June 30, 2022, issued a report and recommendation that the District Court certify a class. The motion for class certification and the parties’ objections to the report and recommendation are pending before the District Court. On May 20, 2023, the Company reached an agreement in principle to settle the litigation. On September 11, 2024, the court granted final approval of the settlement.

Beginning on March 25, 2019, the Company was named as a defendant in a series of putative class action complaints filed in the United States District Court for the SDNY, the first of which is styled Alaska Electrical Pension Fund v. BofA Secs., Inc., et al. Each complaint alleged a conspiracy to fix prices and restrain competition in the market for unsecured bonds issued by the following Government-Sponsored Enterprises: the Federal National Mortgage Association; the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation; the Federal Farm Credit Banks Funding Corporation; and the Federal Home Loan Banks. The purported class period for each suit is from January 1, 2012 to June 1, 2018. Each complaint raised a claim under Section 1 of the Sherman Act and sought, inter alia, injunctive relief and treble compensatory damages. On May 23, 2019, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended class action complaint styled In re GSE Bonds Antitrust Litigation, with a purported class period from January 1, 2009 to January 1, 2016. On June 13, 2019, the defendants filed a joint motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On August 29, 2019, the court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss. On December 15, 2019, the Company and certain other defendants entered into a stipulation of settlement to resolve the action as against each of them in its entirety. On June 16, 2020, the court granted final approval of the settlement.

Additional lawsuits containing claims similar to those described above may be filed in the future. In the course of its business, the Company, as a major futures commission merchant, is party to various civil actions, claims and routine regulatory investigations and proceedings that the General Partner believes do not have a material effect on the business of the Company. The Company may establish reserves from time to time in connections with such actions.

Under certain circumstances, the General Partner can compel redemption, although to date the General Partner has not exercised this right. Purchases of Redeemable Units by the Partnership reflected in the chart above were made in the ordinary course of the Partnership’s business in connection with effecting redemptions for limited partners.

Redemptions of Redeemable Units are effected as of the end of each month at the net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of that day. No fee will be charged for redemptions.

Item 6. Reserved.

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

Overview

The Partnership aims to achieve substantial capital appreciation and permit investors to diversify a traditionally structured stock and bond portfolio. The Partnership attempts to accomplish its objectives through speculative trading in U.S. and international markets for currencies, interest rates, stock indices, agricultural and energy products and precious and base metals.

The General Partner manages all business of the Partnership. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to the Advisors. The General Partner engages a team of approximately 9 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 state-of-the-art technology and on-site evaluations to monitor new and existing futures money managers. The accounting and operations staff provides 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 Advisors;

•

selection, appointment and termination of the Advisors;

•

negotiation of the management agreements; and

•

monitoring the activity of the Advisors.

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.

While the Partnership has the right to seek lower commission rates 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.

The programs traded by each Advisor on behalf of the Partnership as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 were: DCM — DCM’s Diversified Alpha Program, Drury — Drury Diversified Trend-Following Program, Episteme — Systematic Quest Program and Millburn — Multi-Markets Program.

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, the Partnership’s assets were allocated among the Advisors in the following approximate percentages:


Advisor	December 31, 2024		December 31, 2024 (percentage of Partners’ Capital)		September 30, 2024		September 30, 2024 (percentage of Partners’ Capital)
DCM	$	12,161,806		25%	$	12,142,285		25%

DCM Systematic Advisors SA

DCM directly trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets in accordance with its Diversified Alpha Strategy (the “Strategy”) utilizes a multi-model approach allowing the program to capture trading opportunities across three different model styles and further diversified through a wide spectrum of different time horizons. The average holding period for positions typically ranges from one week to a couple of months, depending on the sub-strategy. With this diversified return profile, the Strategy enjoys the flexibility that allows it to aim for positive returns as the market environment shifts and evolves. The majority of the Strategy’s exposure over the long-term is allocated to non-trend models that have historically proven to be uncorrelated to traditional asset classes, and is meant to provide an alternative to the trend-dominated CTA space. The Strategy is comprised of some forty products, future contract spanning across equities, volatility, bonds, interest rates, currencies, energy, metal, and agricultural markets.

Diversified Alpha Program is comprised of only quantitative models, which are categorized as behavioral, relative value, and macro models. The behavioral models anticipate the flows of large market participants to take advantage of their market impact. The relative value premia models focus on capturing relative-value opportunities derived from selected risk premia with a strong emphasis on tail-risk protection. The macro strategies use a broad range of statistical models derived from economic and technical principles.

Drury Diversified Trend-Following Program

Drury trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets in accordance with its Diversified Trend-Following Program. The Diversified Trend-Following Program is built on elements of trend following and diversification. The portfolio emphasizes diversification by trading metals, agricultural products, foreign exchange, stock index futures, energy products, financial instruments and tropical products (softs). Trading is based upon the premise that research can reveal pricing inefficiencies that can be exploited by a systematic disciplined approach to trading futures markets.

The Diversified Trend-Following Program trades approximately 70 portfolio instruments and is generally positioned in 40 of these instruments on average. Positions can be short as well as long. The Diversified Trend-Following Program has no market or sector bias, based on the belief that each instrument can produce long-term profits through the application of independent technical analysis and risk management. Numerous models are traded, but all are trend-following in nature.

Episteme Capital Partners (UK) LLP, Episteme Capital Partners (US) LLC, and Episteme Capital Partners (Cayman) LTD

Episteme trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets in accordance with their Systematic Quest Program. The Systematic Quest Program is a diversified systematic global macro program that seeks to maximize returns by pursuing a diversified portfolio of systematic strategies subject to the constraints of its risk management framework. The trading strategies are generally medium-term and aim to exploit a number of sources of alpha based upon fundamental, technical, and liquidity effects. This managed futures strategy consists of seven different model styles, which include carry, cross-market, idiosyncratic, liquidity, mean reversion, momentum, and value models. By applying each of these trading styles, across multiple time horizons, the strategy blends multiple alpha drivers seeking consistent returns, uncorrelated to traditional asset classes and the managed futures asset class.

Millburn Ridgefield Corporation

Millburn trades a portion of the Partnership’s assets in accordance with its Multi-Markets Program. The Multi-Markets Program implements a group of quantitative models that collectively trade futures, forward and spot contracts on currencies, interest rate instruments, stock indices, metals, energy and agricultural commodities. The aim of the Multi-Markets Program is to target opportunities in a wide range of global markets under a variety of conditions. The Multi-Markets Program’s trading strategies are based on the implementation of a multi-data input, statistical/machine learning framework, and are 100% systematic and quantitative in nature. This framework utilizes price, price-derivative, and non-price data sources or “features,” in an attempt to provide an informed, context-specific and continuous view of portfolio positioning (long or short, and to what extent) in a particular market. Millburn’s investment approach centers on the development of process-driven, measurable and risk-controlled methods to trade a universe of approximately 105 (which number may change from time to time) global currency spot and forward markets, and exchange-traded equity, fixed income and commodity futures markets.

ISAM Systematic Management/International Standard Asset Management

ISAM SM and ISAM directly traded, a managed account in the name of the Partnership pursuant to ISAM SM’s/ISAM’s Systematic Trend Programme. The Systematic Trend Programme’s investment objective was to achieve growth in the value of its assets, providing absolute returns with low correlations to the stock and bond markets through the implementation of systematic trading models. The system traded in the global futures markets covering stock indices, interest rates, currency, energy commodities, precious and base metals and agricultural products, OTC foreign exchange contracts (including currency spot contracts) and exchange-cleared swap and forward contracts.

The Advisor relied on the comprehensive quantitative analysis of historical data to develop trading strategies. These proprietary trading strategies were then implemented subject to strict risk management and controls. The Advisor’s guiding principle was that a disciplined trading approach combined with a broad diversification over a large number of markets, instruments and investment strategies was likely to lead to superior investment results, while maintaining risk at a level comparable to that associated with traditional asset classes. The target volatility of the portfolio was 15-20% annualized.

The Systematic Trend Programme’s investment strategy was to harness the performance of several systematic investment programs in a balanced portfolio, each program selected primarily for its methods of generating returns from global investments that were not highly correlated to the performance of traditional investment strategies such as the stock and bond markets. The goal remained to maximize diversification across various trading strategies and markets with the purpose of achieving capital appreciation objectives for investors while reducing overall portfolio volatility.

No assurance can be given that the Advisors’ strategies will be successful or that they will generate profits for the Partnership.

(a) Liquidity.

The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Its assets are its (i) equity in trading account, consisting of unrestricted and 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, as applicable, and (ii) interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. While substantial losses could lead to a material decrease in liquidity, no such illiquidity occurred during the year ended December 31, 2024.

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

(i)

The Partnership invests its assets only in commodity interests that an 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 an Advisor believes will permit it to enter and exit trades without noticeably moving the market.

(ii)

An Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity 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 that Advisor.

(iii)

The Partnership may occasionally accept physical 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 will be fully hedged.

(iv)

The Partnership 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.

(v)

The Partnership does not utilize borrowings except if the Partnership purchases or takes delivery of commodities.

(vi)

The Advisors may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership. “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.

(vii)

The Partnership 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.

(viii)

The Partnership will not purchase, sell, or trade securities (except securities approved by the CFTC for investment of customer funds).

(ix)

The Advisors will trade only in those futures interests that have been approved by the General Partner.

(x)

The Partnership will, except under extraordinary circumstances, maintain positions in futures interests in at least two market segments (i.e., agricultural items, industrial items (including energies), metals, currencies, and financial instruments (including stock, financial and economic indexes)) at any one time.

(xi)

The Advisors will not generally take a position after the first notice day in any futures interest during the delivery month of the futures interest, except to match.

From January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, the Partnership’s average margin to equity ratio (i.e., the percentage of assets on deposit required for margin) was approximately 17.0%. The foregoing margin to equity ratio took into account cash held in the Partnership’s name, as well as the allocable value of the positions.

In the normal course of business, the Partnership are parties 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 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. Specific market movements of commodities or futures contracts underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option may lose the entire premium paid for the option. The writer or seller of an option has unlimited risk. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating 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 0.0% to 10.5% of the Partnership’s contracts are traded OTC.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership 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 is exposed to market risk equal to the value of the 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 risk of loss in the event of 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 risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk, as MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate are counterparties or brokers with respect to the Partnership’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 counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

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 result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Partnership’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 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, exchange-cleared swaps, 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 business, these instruments may not be or have been held to maturity.

Other than the risks inherent in U.S. Treasury bills, money market mutual fund securities, commodity futures, forward, option and swap contracts, 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 Partnership shall cease trading operations and liquidate all open positions under certain circumstances including a decrease in net asset value per Redeemable Unit to less than $400 as of the close of business on any trading day.

(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, 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 Advisors may or may not be able to identify, such as changing supply and demand relationships, pandemics, epidemics and other public health crises, weather, governmental, 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, ongoing selling agent, management 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 was dependent upon (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s accounts, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities held by the Partnership and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership or MS&Co. had 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 the net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of the end 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. For the year ended December 31, 2024, 8,304.7760 Class A limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $7,119,902, 363.9070 Class D limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $395,523 and 87.2200 Class Z General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $100,184. For the year ended December 31, 2023, 5,919.1640 Class A limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $5,090,648, 299.0970 Class D limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $325,433 and 47.6100 Class Z General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $50,000. For the year ended December 31, 2022, 8,164.3340 Class A limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $7,266,578, 155.6940 Class D limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $156,748, 43.2490 Class Z limited partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $51,309 and 106.6270 Class Z General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $125,000.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, there were no subscriptions.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class A Redeemable Unit increased 4.6% from $801.93 to $838.89, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class D Redeemable Unit increased 4.6% from $1,003.61 to $1,049.87, and the Partnership’s net asset value per Class Z Redeemable Unit increased 5.4% from $1,050.19 to $1,106.92. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class A Redeemable Unit decreased 11.1% from $901.95 to $801.93, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class D Redeemable Unit decreased 11.1% from $1,128.79 to $1,003.61, and the Partnership’s net asset value per Class Z Redeemable Unit decreased 10.4% from $1,172.31 to $1,050.19. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class A Redeemable Unit increased 13.8% from $792.73 to $901.95, the Partnership’s net asset value per Class D Redeemable Unit increased 13.8% from $992.10 to $1,128.79, and the Partnership’s net asset value per Class Z Redeemable Unit increased 14.6% from $1,022.54 to $1,172.31.

The Partnership experienced a net trading gain of $2,042,915 before fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024. Gains were primarily attributable to the Partnership’s trading in currencies, grains, indices, U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and softs and were partially offset by losses in energy and non-U.S. interest rates.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Partnership’s largest gains were achieved within the energy sector throughout the quarter from long futures positions in Brent crude oil and unleaded gasoline as prices advanced amid growing global demand and on concerns conflict and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East could curtail exports. In the global stock index sector, gains were recorded throughout the quarter from long positions in Asian, European, and U.S. equity index futures as prices advanced amid an outlook central banks would be aggressive in cutting interest rates. Gains within the agricultural markets were primarily recorded during January, February and March from long positions in cocoa futures as cocoa prices surged as extremely hot weather in key West African growing regions threatened to severely damage crops. Within currencies, gains were achieved during January from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar and during February and March from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the dollar strengthened against its counterparts. Additional gains were recorded within the global fixed income sector primarily during February from short positions in U.S. and European fixed income futures as interest rates moved higher. A portion of the Partnership’s overall gains for the first quarter was offset by losses incurred within the metals markets during February from long positions in gold futures as a strengthening U.S. dollar diminished demand for precious metals.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Partnership’s most meaningful gains were achieved within the currency markets during April and June from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the yen fell as the Bank of Japan remained committed to easy monetary policies. Gains in the global fixed income sector were recorded during April from short positions in U.S. and European fixed income futures as yields advanced amid persistent inflation. Further gains were achieved within the agriculutrals during April and June from short positions in soybean futures as prices fell amid reports of increasing South American grain exports. In the metals, gains were experienced during April and May from long positions in copper futures as dwindling global supplies and growing demand pushed prices to near record levels. A portion of the Partnership’s trading gains for the second quarter was offset by losses incurred in the energy markets during May from long positions in crude oil and its refined products as prices declined on concerns of slowing economic growth. Additional losses were recorded within the global stock index sector during April from long positions in Asian, U.S., and European equity index futures as prices fell amid a “risk-off” move by global investors.

During the third quarter of 2024, the Partnership’s most significant losses were incurred during July within the currency sector from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the yen surged amid speculation the Bank of Japan would enact policies to strengthen the nation’s currency. In the energies, losses were experienced throughout the third quarter from long positions in crude oil futures as prices declined on high global inventories. Within the global fixed income markets, losses were incurred during July from short positions in U.S. and European fixed income futures as yields dropped amid a strengthening outlook for global central bank interest rate cuts. Further losses were also incurred during July within the global stock index sector from long positions in Asian, U.S., and European equity index futures as prices fell in the latter half of the month amid a sell-off in technology stocks. Within the agriculturals, losses were experienced during September from short positions in soybean, wheat, and corn futures as grain prices reversed higher. A portion of the Partnership’s losses for the third quarter was offset by gains achieved within the metals markets during September from long positions in gold futures as demand for precious metals was spurred by weakness in the U.S. dollar.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the most significant gains were achieved within the currency markets throughout the quarter from short positions on the euro, Japanese yen, and Swiss franc versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the dollar strengthened on persistent positive economic news in the U.S. Further gains were recorded in the agricultural markets during November and December from long positions in cocoa futures as prices surged higher amid supply concerns. A portion of the Partnership’s gains for the quarter was offset by losses incurred within the energies during November and December from short positions in natural gas futures as cold weather in the U.S. and Europe drove heating demand and prices higher. Losses in the metals were recorded during November and December from long positions in gold futures as demand for precious metals waned. In the global stock index sector, losses were experienced during November from long positions in U.S. Volatility Index (“VIX”) futures as equity volatility declined following the U.S. elections. Overall, performance within the global fixed income markets were relatively flat for quarter as gains from U.S. fixed income futures trading were offset by losses from trading in non-U.S. fixed income futures.

The Partnership experienced a net trading loss of $7,315,876 before fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023. Losses were primarily attributable to the Partnership’s trading in currencies, energy, grains, non-U.S. interest rates and metals and were partially offset by gains in indices, U.S. interest rates, livestock and softs.

During the first quarter of 2023, the Partnership’s largest losses were experienced within the global fixed income markets during January from short positions in European and U.S. fixed income futures as an apparent slowing of inflation growth boosted bond prices. Further losses from short positions in U.S. and European fixed income futures were incurred during March as additional bond buying occurred. In the energy markets, losses were incurred from futures positions in Brent crude oil, heating oil, and gasoline as prices moved inconsistently throughout a majority of the quarter amid the lack of a consistent consensus regarding oil supply/demand. Further losses for the quarter were recorded in the currency markets from positions in the euro and Swiss franc as the values of these currencies experienced short-term volatility versus the U.S. dollar. A portion of the Partnership’s overall losses for the first quarter was offset by gains recorded in the global stock indices from long positions in European equity index futures during January and February as investor appetite for risk assets in the region boosted stock prices. In the agricultural markets, gains were achieved during January, February, and March from short positions in wheat futures as wheat prices declined amid easing drought conditions in key South American growing regions. In the metals markets, long positioning in gold futures profited during January and March as investors sought out precious metals as a store of value.

During the second quarter of 2023, the Partnership’s most meaningful gains were achieved in the global fixed income markets from short positions in European, U.S., and Canadian government debt futures during May and June as prices declined and yields rose amid ongoing concerns regarding inflation and expectations for hawkish central bank policy to continue. In global stock indices, long futures positions in Asian equity indices profited during April, May, and June as prices rose amid economic data supporting investors’ “risk-on” stance. In the currency markets, gains were achieved from short positions in the Japanese yen as the value of the yen declined against the U.S. dollar throughout the quarter. In the agricultural markets, gains were recorded during April from long positions in sugar futures as prices climbed to an 11-year high amid adverse weather in key growing regions and supply tightness. A portion of the Partnership’s trading gains for the second quarter was offset by losses incurred in the energy markets from positions in Brent and West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures as oil prices moved without consistent direction for a majority of the quarter. In the metals, losses were recorded from long positions in gold futures as prices reversed lower during May amid broad strength in the U.S. dollar.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Partnership’s most significant gains were recorded in the energy markets from long futures positions in crude oil, heating oil and unleaded gasoline as prices trended higher throughout the quarter amid supply related concerns. In the global fixed income markets, profits were achieved from short positions in U.S., Canadian, and European government debt futures as prices dropped amid expectations central banks would keep interest rates high. In the currency markets, gains were recorded from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the dollar strengthened versus the yen during August and September on expectations the Federal Reserve would continue to battle inflation. A portion of the Partnership’s gains for the third quarter was offset by losses incurred in the global stock indices from long futures positions in European equity indices as prices declined amid investor expectations for interest rates to remain higher for longer. In the metals sector, losses were experienced from short positions in copper during July and long positions in silver during September as the prices of these metals fluctuated. Net trading results in the agricultural were relatively flat and did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s performance for the quarter.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the most significant losses were incurred during October from long positions in crude oil and its refined products as prices fell amid concerns of potential demand reduction. Losses in the global fixed income sector were incurred during November from short positions in European and U.S. government debt futures as investors speculated central banks would be moderating hawkish interest rate policies. During November and December, losses were incurred from short positions in the Swiss franc, Japanese yen, euro, and Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the U.S. currency weakened. Metals losses were experienced throughout the quarter as both industrial and precious metals exhibited choppy price tendencies. Smaller losses were incurred during October from long positions in global stock indices. The Partnership’s losses for the fourth quarter were partially offset by gains achieved within the agricultural during December from short positions in sugar futures as prices reversed lower following a long bullish trend.

The results of operations for the twelve months ended 2022 is discussed under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Partnership received monthly interest on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s brokerage account at MS&Co. during each month 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 did not receive interest on amounts in the futures brokerage account that were committed to margin. Any interest earned on the Partnership’s cash account in excess of the amounts described above, if any, was 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 was retained by the Partnership, as applicable. Interest income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $142,199 and $57,271, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rates during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. Interest earned by the Partnership will increase the net asset value of the Partnership. The amount of interest income earned by the Partnership depended on (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s accounts, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities held by the Partnership and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership or MS&Co. had control.

Certain clearing fees are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisors for the Partnership. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the number of trades executed during the period. Clearing fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $20,551 and $44,232, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. The decrease in these clearing fees was due to a decrease in the number of direct trades made by the Partnership during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023.

Ongoing selling agent fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value of Class A and Class D Redeemable Units on the last day 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, 2024 decreased by $12,033 and $45,408, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average net assets attributable to Class A and Class D Redeemable Units during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023.

General Partner fees are paid to the General Partner for administering the business and affairs of the Partnership. General Partner fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net assets 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. General Partner fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $14,296 and $53,710, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023.

Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net assets 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. Management fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $9,002 and $44,963, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023.

Incentive fees are based on the New Trading Profits generated by each Advisor at the end of the quarter, half-year or year, as applicable, as defined in the respective Management Agreements between the Partnership, the General Partner and each Advisor. Trading performance for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 resulted in incentive fees of $0. Trading performance for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2023 resulted in a reversal of incentive fees of $323,351 and incentive fees of $0, respectively. To the extent an Advisor incurs a loss for the Partnership, the Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until such Advisor recovers any net loss incurred by the Advisor and earns additional New Trading Profits for the Partnership.

The Partnership pays professional fees, which generally include certain offering costs and legal, accounting, administrative, filing, reporting and data processing fees. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were $307,240 and $314,389, respectively.

In the General Partner’s opinion, the Partnership’s Advisors continue to employ trading methods consistent with the objectives of the Partnership. The General Partner monitors the Advisors’ performance on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis to assure these objectives are met.

Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations and rapid inflation increase not only the risks involved in commodity trading, but also the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisors 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, changes in interest rates, pandemics, epidemics and other public health crises. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisors are able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.

In allocating the assets of the Partnership among the Advisors, the General Partner considers, among other factors, each Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets among the Advisors and may allocate assets to additional advisors at any time. Each Advisor’s percentage allocation and trading program is described in the “Overview” section of this Item 7.

(d) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. None.

(e) Contractual Obligations. None.

(f) Operational Risk.

The Partnership is 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 is subject to increased risks with respect to its trading activities in emerging market instruments, where clearance, settlement, and/or custodial risks are often greater than in more established markets.

Technological Risk — the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership’s ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers and in the markets where the Partnership 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 management’s authorization, and that financial information utilized by management and communicated to external parties, including the Partnership’s 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 futures, option and forward contracts and U.S. Treasury bills, as applicable. 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

The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive instruments held by the Partnership are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to 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. This limited liability is a result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair value of the Partnership’s open positions and, consequently, in their earnings and cash balances. The Partnership’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 Partnership’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which they trade.

The Partnership 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 Partnership’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of their future results.

“Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership’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 Partnership’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership’s attempts to manage their market risk.

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 Partnership’s market sensitive instruments.

Quantifying the Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk

The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’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 Securities 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.

The Partnership accounts for open positions on the basis of fair value accounting principles. Any loss in the market value of the Partnership’s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s earnings and cash flow.

The Partnership’s risk exposure in the market sectors traded by the Advisors is estimated below in terms of Value at Risk. Please note that the Value at Risk model is used to numerically quantify market risk for historic reporting purposes only and is not utilized by either the General Partner or the Advisors in their daily risk management activities.

Exchange margin requirements have been used by the Partnership as the measure of their 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 interval. 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 Partnership), 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 Partnership’s futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, the Advisors may trade commodity options. The Value at Risk associated with options is reflected in the following tables as the margin requirement attributable to the instrument underlying each option. Where this instrument is a futures contract, the futures margin, 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 Partnership in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.

In quantifying the Partnership’s Value at Risk, a 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 Partnership’s positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.

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

DCM, Drury, Episteme and Millburn each directly trade managed accounts in the name of the Partnership. Prior to its termination effective December 31, 2022, ISAM SM directly traded managed accounts in the name of the Partnership. The trading Value at Risk tables reflect the market sensitive instruments held by the Partnership directly (i.e., in the managed accounts in the Partnership’s name traded by DCM, Drury, Episteme and Millburn, respectively) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s direct investments by market category as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the highest, lowest and average values during the applicable years. All open position trading risk exposures have been included in calculating the figures set forth below.

As of December 31, 2024, the Partnership’s total capitalization was $48,049,570.

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

The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership 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 requirement on short notice) as well as many times the capitalization of the Partnership. The magnitude of the Partnership’s open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of the Partnership’s positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Partnership to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk tables — as well as the past performance of the Partnership — 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. However, these balances (as well as any market risk they represent) are immaterial.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Partnership 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 Partnership’s primary market risk exposures as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisors for managing such exposures are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Partnership’s risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, pandemics, epidemics, and other public health crises, 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 Partnership. There can be no assurance that the Partnership’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 Partnership on December 31, 2024, by market sector. It may be anticipated, however, that these market exposures will vary materially over time.

Currencies. The Partnership’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 Partnership’s currency sector will change significantly in the future.

Equities. The Partnership’s primary equity exposure is to equity price risk in the G20 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Partnership are limited to futures on broadly based indices. As of December 31, 2024, the Partnership’s primary exposures were in the CBOE VIX Volatility Index (U.S.), Nikkei 225 (Japan), NASDAQ 100 (U.S.), FTSE 100 (United Kingdom), SPI 200 (Australia), DAX (Germany), S&P/TSX 60 (Canada), Hang Seng (Hong Kong), TOPIX (Japan), SGX FTSE Taiwan (Taiwan), and S&P 500 (U.S.) stock indices. The Partnership is primarily exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major North American, European, and Pacific Rim indices, as well as emerging markets. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but would make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid being “whipsawed” into numerous small losses.)

Interest Rates. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the futures positions held by the Partnership 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 Partnership’s profitability. The Partnership’s primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and the other G7 countries. However, the Partnership may also take futures positions on the government debt of smaller economies — e.g., Australia.

Commodities:

Energy. The Partnership’s primary energy market exposure is to oil and natural gas price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East, weather conditions, and other factors contributing to supply and demand. Further energy market exposure is to prices in the carbon emission allowances markets, which are subject to movements driven by geopolitical events, climate related regulation, and other supply/demand related factors, as well as in European electricity prices, which are subject to changes caused by weather related factors, availability of substitute power sources, and government imposed regulations in Europe. 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.

Metals. The Partnership’s primary metals exposure as of December 31, 2024, was to fluctuations in the prices of industrial metals (such as copper, lead, zinc, aluminum, iron, and nickel) and precious metals (such as gold, silver, platinum, and palladium). Price movement in both industrial and precious metals can be driven by fluctuation in the valuations between currency pairs, geopolitical events, economic conditions globally and regionally, trade policies, regulatory restrictions, as well as other supply and demand related factors.

Grains. The Partnership’s trading risk exposure in grains is primarily to agricultural-related price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. The soybean complex, wheat, and corn accounted for the Partnership’s primary grain exposure as of December 31, 2024.

Softs. The Partnership’s trading risk exposure in soft commodities is primarily to agricultural-related price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions, as well as geopolitical events and other supply/demand related factors. Coffee, cocoa, cotton, and sugar accounted for the majority of the Partnership’s soft commodity exposure as of December 31, 2024.

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

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure

The following was the only non-trading risk exposure of the Partnership as of December 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership may hold various foreign balances. The Advisors regularly convert foreign currency balances to U.S. dollars in an attempt to manage the Partnership’s non-trading risk.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

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

The Advisors apply their own risk management policies to their trading. The Advisors often follow diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss points to exit a position. The Advisors’ research of risk management often suggests ongoing modifications to their trading programs.

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

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over

Financial Reporting

The management of Ceres Tactical Systematic 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, as amended, 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 Tactical Systematic L.P. has assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. 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, 2024 based on the criteria referred to above.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Ceres Tactical Systematic L.P. (the Partnership), including the condensed schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related statements of income and expenses, and changes in partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and changes in its partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. 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. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our 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 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

We have served as the auditor of the Partnership since 2017.

Notes to Financial Statements

1.	Organization:

Ceres Tactical Systematic L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York on December 3, 2002 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 commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership 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 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.

Between March 27, 2003 (commencement of the public offering period) and April 30, 2003, 36,616 redeemable units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership (“Redeemable Units”) were sold at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit. The proceeds of the initial public offering were held in an escrow account until April 30, 2003, at which time they were turned over to the Partnership for trading. The Partnership was authorized to publicly offer 300,000 Redeemable Units during the initial public offering period. As of December 4, 2003, the Partnership was authorized to publicly offer an additional 700,000 Redeemable Units. As of October 7, 2004, the Partnership was authorized to publicly offer an additional 1,000,000 Redeemable Units. As of June 30, 2005, the Partnership was authorized to publicly offer Redeemable Units previously registered. The public offering of Redeemable Units terminated on November 30, 2008. The Partnership currently privately and continuously offers Redeemable Units to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of Redeemable Units that may be sold by the Partnership.

During the periods covered by this report, the Partnership’s commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant.

non-U.S.

investors. Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units were first issued on January 1, 2018. 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 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 certain employees of Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries (and their family members). In the future, Class Z Redeemable Units may also be offered to certain limited partners who receive advisory services from Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, doing business as Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”). Class A Redeemable Units, Class D Redeemable Units and Class Z Redeemable Units are identical, except that they are subject to different monthly ongoing selling agent fees. Class A 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 A Redeemable Units as of the end of each month. 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 Redeemable Units as of the end of each month. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to a monthly ongoing selling agent fee.

Notes to Financial Statements

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.

Profit Allocation.

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, redemptions and losses, if any.

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, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Partnership carried no debt, and all of the Partnership’s investments were carried at fair value and classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements.

Partnership’s Derivative Investments.

All commodity interests held by the Partnership, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, are held for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on the 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 gains or losses on open contracts are included as a component of equity in trading account in the Partnership’s Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized gains or losses are reported in the Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

The

Partnership

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 Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

Partnership’s Cash.

The Partnership’s restricted and unrestricted cash includes cash denominated in foreign currencies of $602,110 (cost of $612,477) and $745,796 (cost of $740,454) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

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 Partnership’s 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

2021 through 2024

tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.

Segment Reporting

. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Partnership adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update

No. 2023-07,

Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

, (ASU

2023-07),

which requires incremental disclosures related to a public entity’s reportable segments. The Partnership operates as a single reportable segment, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) monitors the operating results of the fund as a whole against its investment objective, which is included in Note 1. The Partnership’s President acts as the Partnership’s CODM and is responsible for assessing the performance of the Partnership’s single segment and deciding how to allocate the segment’s resources. To perform this function, the CODM reviews the total trading results as reflected in the accompanying statements of income and expenses and total return as reflected in the financial highlights as included in the notes to the Partnership’s Financial Statements. Additionally, segment assets are presented in the accompanying Statements of Financial Condition and significant segment expenses are reported in the accompanying Statements of Income and Expenses.

Notes to Financial Statements

In allocating the assets of the Partnership among the Advisors, the General Partner considers, among other factors, past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets among the Advisors and may allocate assets to additional trading advisors at any time.

Customer Agreement:

give-up,

floor brokerage and National Futures Association fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”). Clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. The Partnership’s cash is deposited by MS&Co. in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. The Partnership’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. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the amount of cash held by the Partnership for margin requirements was $7,990,887 and $9,285,004, respectively. Cash that is not classified as restricted cash is therefore classified as unrestricted cash. MS&Co. paid monthly interest on 100% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s brokerage account at MS&Co. during each month at a 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.

Selling Agreement:

month-end

net assets for Class A and Class D Redeemable Units. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management pays a portion of its ongoing selling agent fees to properly registered or exempted financial advisors who have sold Class A and Class D Redeemable Units. Class Z Redeemable Units are not subject to an ongoing selling agent fee.

Month-end

net assets, for the purpose of calculating ongoing selling agent fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, for the Class, prior to the reduction of the current month’s ongoing selling agent fee, incentive fee accrual, management fee, General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

In the event of default by the Partnership, MS&Co., the Partnership’s commodity futures broker and the sole counterparty to the Partnership’s

non-exchange-traded

contracts, as applicable, has the right to offset the Partnership’s obligation with the Partnership’s cash and/or U.S. Treasury bills held by MS&Co., thereby minimizing MS&Co.’s risk of loss. In certain instances, MS&Co. may not post collateral and as such, in the event of default by MS&Co., the Partnership is exposed to the amount shown in the Statements of Financial Condition. In the case of exchange-traded contracts, the Partnership’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. In some instances, the actual collateral received and/or pledged may be more than the amount shown due to overcollateralization.

5.	Fair Value Measurements:

Partnership’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 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.

The Partnership considers prices for commodity futures, 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, 2024 and 2023, the Partnership 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).

6.	Subscriptions, Distributions and Redemptions:

Subscriptions are accepted monthly from investors who become limited partners on the f

irs

t 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 as of the end of each 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 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 net assets of the Partnership.

8.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Partnership 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. Specific market movements of commodities or futures contracts underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option may lose the entire premium paid for the option. The writer or seller of an option has unlimited risk. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating 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 0.0% to 10.5% of the Partnership’s contracts are traded OTC.

Notes to Financial Statements

Futures Contracts

. The Partnership 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 if 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 Partnership 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 Partnership. When the contract is closed, the Partnership 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 Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts.

Forward foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Partnership 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 Partnership’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 foreign exchange rates at the reporting date, is included in the Partnership’s Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on forward foreign currency contracts are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively, and are included in the Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

London Metal 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, zinc and other metals. LME contracts traded by the Partnership are cash-settled based on prompt dates published by the LME. Variation margin may be made or received by the Partnership 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 Partnership. 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 Partnership 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 Partnership’s Statements of Income and Expenses.

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 risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is (was) not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk, as MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate are counterparties or brokers with respect to the Partnership’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 counterparty is or was an exchange or clearing organization.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to mitigate the Partnership’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has or had effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership may or may have been 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, exchange-cleared swaps, forward and option contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

Notes to Financial Statements

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

Beginning in February 2022, the United States, the United Ki

ngd

om, the European Union, and a number of other nations imposed sanctions against Russia in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and these and other governments around the world may impose additional sanctions in the future as the conflict develops. In addition, the armed conflict between Israel and Hamas and subsequent sanctions have created volatility in the price of various commodities and may lead to a deterioration in the political and trade relationships that exist between the countries involved and have a negative impact on business activity globally, and therefore could affect the performance of the Partnership’s investments. Furthermore, uncertainties regarding these conflicts and the varying involvement of the United States and other countries preclude prediction as to the ultimate impact on global economic and market conditions, and, as a result, presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Partnership and the performance of its investments or operations, and the ability of the Partnership to achieve its investment objectives. Additionally, to the extent that investors, service providers and/or other third parties have material operations or assets in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine or Israel, they may have their operations disrupted and/or suffer adverse consequences related to the ongoing conflicts.

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 there were no subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.
