San Diego, California--(Newsfile Corp. - February 23, 2021) - National law firm Barr Law Group is investigating the suspension of redemptions and planned liquidation of the Infinity Q Diversified Alpha Fund.

Infinity Q Diversified Alpha Fund (IQDNX IQDAX) Announced That It Is Suspending Redemptions And Liquidating As A Result Of Valuation Improprieties Identified By The SEC
Barr Law Group is investigating potential breaches of fiduciary duties by the Fund's investment advisor, Infinity Q Capital Management LLC ("Infinity Q"), and the Fund's Board of Trustees in connection with the announcement on February 22, 2021 that the Fund will suspend redemptions and liquidate its assets.
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") is currently investigating whether Infinity Q's chief investment officer ("CIO") improperly adjusted certain valuation models used to price swap contracts held by the Fund, potentially resulting in incorrect valuations being reported to investors. The company has stated that it has "verified that [its CIO] did access and alter the third party's valuation models but has not yet assessed the impact of those alterations."
The Fund's current portfolio includes swap instruments for which Infinity Q calculates fair value by relying on a third-party pricing vendor. Infinity Q has stated that the value of these swaps constitutes as much as 18% of the Fund's reported net asset value ("NAV"). Infinity Q has admitted that its CIO made adjustments to certain parameters within the third-party pricing model that affected the valuation of the swaps held by the Fund, and that it has not been able to verify that the previously calculated values were reflective of fair value. The Fund will not be able to publish an accurate NAV for at least several days.
Accurate valuation of a mutual fund's securities is of critical importance because improper calculations can significantly affect the value of a fund in the aggregate and, by extension, the value of each share of the fund individually (i.e. the value of a shareholder's investment). Such issues may be particularly acute in the case of the Infinity Q Diversified Alpha Fund, given that (1) the Fund's investment advisor has admitted that one of its senior personnel made potentially improper adjustments to certain valuation models used to price a significant portion of the Fund's assets and (2) the Fund now plans to liquidate.
