Prospectus
You may view the ARK Venture Fund prospectus here.
The ARK Venture Fund is an interval fund. Investments in interval funds are highly speculative and an investor may lose all or part of his or her investment. The investment is subject to a lack of liquidity that is generally available in other types of investments. Liquidity is not guaranteed, and is subject to availability at the discretion of the Third Party Fund. Actual investment return and principal value is likely to fluctuate and may depreciate in value when redeemed. You are solely responsible for evaluating the merits and risks associated with the use of any information, materials, content, user content, or third party content provided before making any decisions based on such content. Past performance data, performance graphs or other historical information are not a guarantee of future performance and should not be construed as indicative of future results. You should consider your individual investment objectives and risk tolerance before investing. The content presented is not intended to provide you or anyone else with investment, legal, tax, insurance, or any other kind of professional advice. You should consult with a financial, tax or legal professional for advice regarding your specific financial, tax or legal positions and circumstances. You should read the fund’s prospectus in its entirety before investing. The fund’s prospectus contains the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses, and other information, which should be considered carefully before investing. The ARK Venture Fund is a continuously-offered, non-diversified, registered closed-end fund with limited liquidity. You should not expect to be able to sell your Shares in the ARK Venture Fund other than through the Fund’s repurchase policy, regardless of how the Fund performs.

Fee Whitepaper

Titan’s Relationship with ARK Investment Management LLC
ARK Investment Management LLC (“ARK”) is the holder of a warrant in Titan Global which entitles ARK to purchase shares of Titan Global at an agreed-upon price based on the fulfillment of certain conditions, including a threshold number of Titan client and TGT brokerage customers investing in the ARK Venture Fund as of January 1, 2023, or six months after the launch of the ARK Venture Fund, whichever is later. This warrant creates a conflict of interest for Titan in performing its services to Clients pursuant to the Advisory Account Management Agreement because Titan may have an indirect economic incentive to recommend or not recommend Ark Venture Fund to Clients relative to recommending them other investment products.
ARK pays TGT a services fee (“Services Fee”) in connection with brokerage services TGT provides related to the ARK Venture Fund. The Services Fee is the greater of (1) a fixed fee or (2) an asset-based fee that varies according to the value of Titan advisory Client and TGT brokerage customers’ interests in the ARK Venture Fund. TGT’s receipt of this fee from ARK creates a conflict of interest for Titan in performing its advisory services pursuant to the Advisory Account Management Agreement because TGT receives compensation when Titan recommends the Ark Venture Fund to advisory Clients that it would not receive when Titan recommends other investment products that do not compensate TGT for brokerage services to advisory Clients.
Titan does not charge an asset-based Wrap Program Fee for Client assets invested in the ARK Venture Fund. However, as set forth below, TGT will receive compensation in connection with agency cross transactions effected for Titan advisory Client accounts, including (but not necessarily limited to) transactions for ARK Venture Fund. Further, Titan has implemented policies and procedures designed to help ensure that its recommendations of the ARK Venture Fund are in the best interest of Clients, notwithstanding the relationship between ARK Venture Fund and TGT.
Advisory Fee Waiver Disclosure
Titan Global Capital Management USA LLC ("Titan") is an SEC registered investment adviser. Titan’s affiliate, Titan Global Technologies LLC (“TGT”), is a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA/SIPC. Titan and TGT are subsidiaries of Titan Global Capital Management, Inc. The platform permits clients to purchase securities, including (but not limited to) various Registered Investment Company products offered by third party fund families and investment companies, including the ARK Venture Fund (the “Third Party Fund”). When Titan recommends the ARK Venture Fund to an advisory client, Titan does not charge its client a advisory fee on the recommended Third Party Fund because TGT receives transaction-based compensation from the third party funds.
Specific Third Party Fund Page Offered through Broker-Dealer
This Registered Investment Company product (the “Third Party Fund”) is offered by a third party investment company, ARK Investment Management (“ARK Invest” or the “Third Party Advisor”), wherein Titan Global Technologies LLC (“TGT”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA/SIPC, serves as introducing broker-dealer. For the avoidance of doubt, Titan Capital Management USA LLC (“Titan”) does not serve as the investment advisor of the Third Party Fund. Before investing in the Third Party Fund, you should consult the specific supplemental information available at ark-ventures.com.
