Specific Risks

  • Calu Opportunity Fund LP is an investment vehicle with Calu Financial LLC as the general partner. The entities do not have other cashflow generating operations other than from investment activities

 

  • An important source of income and value creation is income from the ownership and/or sale of investments. There is no certainty that the investments will provide sufficient income or value to pay the interest and principal of a loan. Even if the investments have sufficient value to cover interest and principal repayment, there is a risk that there is not sufficient liquidity to timely divest such investments at a value sufficient to make timely payment of interest and principal

 

  • An alternative source of funds to pay the interest and principal of the loan is additional funds being contributed to the Calu Fund by existing or new limited partners. There is no certainty that additional funds will be contributed by existing or new limited partners

 

  • Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and carry a high degree of risk – including the loss of the entire investment
