J.P. Morgan Preps Commodities Fund

J.P. Morgan Asset Management has filed paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission to launch the JP Morgan Commodities Strategy Fund.

The fund will bet on commodity-linked derivative instruments, including commodity-linked notes, swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures. The portfolio management team consists of Robert Michele, Peter E. Kocubinski and Christopher M. Tufts.

The fund sports a management fee of 85 basis points.

A J.P. Morgan spokesperson declined to comment beyond the filing because it is in registration.
