The Company recognizes that commodity trading has an especially significant transaction potential and does not preclude that it will establish international trade cooperation through its subsidiaries. STARHEDGE acquires large blocks of shares in public companies; it also issues and trades financial instruments on its own account. Due to the increasingly rapid development of global financial markets, the Company performs transactions using the most advanced instruments, namely specialized investment accounts offered by European and other international brokers.
 

In prospect, the majority of portfolio transactions will be performed on derivatives, including options and futures, which will greatly reduce investment risks that are often associated with investing in shares of public companies. The investment strategy of STARHEDGE with respect to the acquisition of financial instruments is based on a benchmark where contractual transactions account for 20-30% of the portfolio, whereas shares and bonds account for 50-60%. The remaining 10-20% of the portfolio is exposed to private equity (at least 10%) and other structured financial instruments (at most 10%). The Company is not and will not be engaged in any restructuring projects due to the high level of legal risks.
