Portfolio Managers

The Adviser utilizes a team-based and integrated approach to its investment management process, including strategy development, research, portfolio implementation, risk management and trading execution. The Adviser's investment decisions are based on quantitative analysis of a specified universe of securities or other assets. This quantitative analysis relies on proprietary models to generate views on securities or other assets and applies them in a disciplined and systematic process. The Adviser's research, portfolio implementation and trading teams supervise the day-to-day execution of these models and continuously research ways to enhance their efficiency. Senior portfolio managers oversee this process while junior portfolio managers and portfolio implementation specialists provide appropriate oversight of the day to day details of each Fund's portfolio.

Each of the portfolio managers listed below is a senior member of the applicable portfolio management team that oversees the Adviser's investment management process for one or more of the investment strategies employed by the applicable Fund.

From time to time, a manager, analyst, or other employee of the Adviser or any of their affiliates may express views regarding a particular asset class, company, security, industry, or market sector. The views expressed by any such person are the views of only that individual as of the time expressed and do not necessarily represent the views of the Adviser or any other person within the Adviser's organization. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and the Adviser disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for a Fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of a Fund.

The Adviser has developed the AQR Momentum Index, the AQR Small Cap Momentum Index and the AQR International Momentum Index (collectively, the "AQR Momentum Indices"), each of which has a methodology similar to that of the AQR Large Cap Momentum Style Fund, the AQR Small Cap Momentum Style Fund and the AQR International Momentum Style Fund, respectively. The AQR Momentum Index is a capitalization-weighted index designed to measure the performance of large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks with positive momentum. The AQR Small Cap Momentum Index is a capitalization-weighted index designed to measure the performance of small-cap U.S. stocks with positive momentum and the AQR International Momentum Index is a capitalization-weighted index designed to measure the performance of stocks with positive momentum in developed markets outside of the U.S. You cannot invest directly in the AQR Momentum Indices. For additional information regarding the AQR Momentum Indices, please see www.aqr.com/Insights/Datasets/Momentum-Indices-Monthly.
