Important Fund Information and Disclosures:
The North Square Evanston Multi Alpha Fund was formerly known as the “Evanston Alternative Opportunities Fund.” Prior to May 6, 2024 Evanston Capital Management, LLC (“ECM”) was the Fund’s investment adviser. Effective as of May 6, 2024, North Square Investments, LLC (“North Square”) became the Fund’s investment adviser and retained ECM to become the Fund’s sub-adviser and continue managing the Fund’s portfolio.
Risk Considerations:
The Fund is a continuously-offered, non-diversified, registered closed-end fund with limited liquidity. No assurance can be given that the Fund will achieve its objectives. The information above does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Fund’s securities. Any such offer will be made only by means of the Fund’s Prospectus.
As described in the Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, an investment in the Fund is speculative, involves a substantial degree of risk, and an investor could lose all or substantially all of his or her investment. There can be no assurance the Fund will achieve its investment objectives or avoid significant losses. The Fund is only available to “eligible investors” who can bear significant risk and do not require a liquid investment. Please see the Fund’s Prospectus for important information about the Fund’s terms, risks, and other disclosures.
The Fund’s shares are subject to restrictions on transfer and have limited liquidity. The Fund does not list its shares for trading on any national securities exchange; there is no secondary market for the shares, and none is expected to develop. An investment in the Fund’s shares is not suitable for investors that require liquidity, other than liquidity provided through the Fund’s repurchase policy. There can be no guarantee that an investor will be able to sell any of its shares when it desires to do so. The Fund’s repurchase offer policy may decrease its size over time absent significant new investments in the Fund. It could force the Fund to maintain more liquid investments, sell assets prematurely, substantially increase the Fund’s ratio of illiquid to liquid securities for non-redeeming investors, and/or reduce the investment opportunities available to the Fund and cause its expense ratio to increase.
Investors are urged to carefully review the Fund’s Prospectus for information about other fees, including the Fund’s operating expenses. Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and limited liquidity carefully before investing; the Fund’s Prospectus contains this and other information about the Fund. All Fund investors are urged to carefully review the entire Prospectus before investing. You can obtain a copy of the Fund’s Prospectus via this link or by calling 312-857-2160 or by requesting a copy from your financial professional. Please read the Prospectus carefully before you invest.
