What Happens When a Fund Has a Negative Balance? (For Fund Managers)

Understand fund termination, staged settlement and the limits on restoring a fund after a confirmed negative balance.

When the system confirms a negative balance in the fund account, it initiates the fund-termination process. This account holds pooled fund capital; it is not the Fund Manager’s Master account.


How the process works

Remaining positions are processed for closure at executable market conditions. Position closure, termination notices, the end of investor relationships, forced redemption and settlement may take place in stages. A notice does not prove that every stage has finished. Completion times, execution prices and settlement outcomes are not guaranteed by this article.


Limits on restoring the fund

A Fund Manager cannot top up the terminated fund with personal money to cover the negative balance, restore its operation or keep its former investor relationships active. A new fund requires the current eligibility checks, review and approval; creating another fund is not an automatic entitlement.


What to do next

Review the termination notice and recent fund activity. If the account status, settlement or handling of investor funds is unclear, contact Support through the signed-in Service Hub. The team must review the specific case before confirming its outcome.
