Pharo Management LLC registered with the SEC as an investment adviser on February 10, 2012, and with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”) on January 1, 2013. As part of a restructuring of the Pharo group in 2019, Pharo Management LLC converted to a limited partnership under Delaware law, changed its name to Pharo Management, L.P., and contributed its assets, liabilities and business to Pharo Management in exchange for all the issued stock of Pharo Management, making Pharo Management, L.P. the sole owner of Pharo Management.
