    Let's be clear that we are given admin rights not trading rights.

    We are governed by the fiduciary duties imposed on a licensed financial services company by the regulator in Australia.

    So, when I try to look at the performance of some of the guys, it says not authorized.

    In this case the trader in his privacy settings has only allowed certain groups of people to view their account or not allowed anyone to view details.

    If you think there is a specific error, please just contact us via info@rapacapintro.com or support@rapacapintro.com

    Okay.... so two questions come to mind,

    (1) what is your relationship with the trader? (for example is a trader your 'customer')? Because fiduciary duty is very much dependent on the type of relationship.

    (2) I'm not familiar with the sec reg in Australia - so please excuse if this is a silly question - but what are the licenses you posses in order to operate in Australia?

    I will answer your second question, I will need to research the first one and respond accordingly.

    Gleneagle Securities (Aust) Pty Ltd - ABN 58 136 930 526 AFSL 337985 has a full broking, custodian, etc license with ASIC. The regulator in Australia ASIC, is the SEC on steroids. RAPA is currently awaiting its corporate authorised rep no from ASIC as an authorised representative of its responsible entity license.

    The trader will enter into a trading agreement with Gleneagle.

    Really appreciate your response. As I was writing my post to you, I realized that I'm at a complete loss to come up with a word to characterize the relationship between you and the trader. I think it's important for everyone to know what this relationship is.

    And a follow up - what's the relationship between RAPA and Gleneagle Securities?

    Got it - still trying to understand how this all works though - so a trader signs an agreement with one of RAPA's owners.... (1) does the trader have a relationship with RAPA? (2) And what is the nature of the trader's relationship with Gleneagle? A brokerage customer, or something else completely?

    Thanks for the quick replies.

    The trader when entering the mandate to manage funds on behalf of Gleneagle will simulatenously agree to share half their fees earned with RAPA, the trader simply has a mandate to trade a particular managed account.
