Nature of operations | ' |
1. Nature of operations | |
Organization and Business | |
Superfund Green, L.P. (the “Fund”), a Delaware limited partnership, commenced operations on November 5, 2002. The Fund was organized to trade speculatively in the United States (“U.S.”) and international commodity futures and forward markets using a fully-automated computerized trading system. The Fund has issued two classes of units (“Units”), Series A and Series B (each, a “Series”). The two Series are traded and managed the same way except for the degree of leverage. | |
The terms of Series A and Series B each shall continue until December 31, 2050, unless the applicable Series is terminated earlier by the Fund’s general partner, Superfund Capital Management, Inc. (“Superfund Capital Management”) or by operation of law or a decline in the aggregate net assets of such Series to less than $500,000. |

Basis of Presentation | |
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) with respect to the Form 10-Q and reflect all adjustments which in the opinion of management are normal and recurring, and which are necessary for a fair statement of the results of interim periods presented. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes included in the Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. | |
Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts, Forward Contracts, and U.S. Treasury Bills | |
All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on a trade date basis and open contracts are recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotes are readily available. | |
Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at settlement prices published by the recognized exchange. Any spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund will be valued at published settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes. The Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing U.S. Treasury Bills due to the short-term nature of such instruments; accordingly, the cost of securities plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium approximates fair value (See Section 3 – Fair Value Measurements). | |
Translation of Foreign Currency | |
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the period-end exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expenses that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the transaction date. Adjustments arising from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the Statements of Operations. | |
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the statements of operations. | |
Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses | |
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. The Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing U.S. Treasury Bills. Operating expenses of the Fund are allocated to each Series in proportion to the net asset value of the Series at the beginning of each month. Expenses directly attributable to a particular Series are charged directly to that Series. | |
Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains and losses on open contracts (the difference between contract trade price and market price) are reported in the Statements of Operations as a net gain or loss, as there exists a right of offset of unrealized gains or losses in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 210-20, Offsetting – Balance Sheet. | |
Set forth herein are instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and which are subject to derivative clearing agreements with the Fund’s futures commission merchants. Each futures commission merchant nets margin held on behalf of each Series of the Fund or payment obligations of the futures commission merchant to each Series against any payment obligations of that Series to the futures commission merchant. Each Series is required to deposit margin at each futures commission merchant to meet the original and maintenance requirements established by that futures commission merchant, and/or the exchange or clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which the instrument is traded. The derivative clearing agreements give each futures commission merchant a security interest in this margin to secure any liabilities owed to the futures commission merchant arising from a default by the Series. As of September 30, 2013, the Fund had on deposit $6,418,285 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $3,531,430 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $1,991,839 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. As of September 30, 2013, Series A had on deposit $2,270,907 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $1,571,612 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $713,843 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. As of September 30, 2013, Series B had on deposit $4,147,378 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $1,959,818 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $1,277,996 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. | |
Income Taxes | |
The Fund does not record a provision for U.S. income taxes because the partners report their share of the Fund’s income or loss on their returns. The financial statements reflect the Fund’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for income tax purposes. | |
Superfund Capital Management has evaluated the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), to the Fund, to determine whether or not there are uncertain tax positions that require financial statement recognition. Based on this evaluation, Superfund Capital Management has determined no reserves for uncertain tax positions are required to be recorded as a result of the application of ASC 740. Superfund Capital Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. As a result, no income tax liability or expense has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Fund files federal and various state tax returns. The 2010 through 2012 tax years generally remain subject to examination by the U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. | |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Superfund Capital Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | |
ASU 2011-11 | |
In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The new disclosure requirements mandate that entities disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of assets and liabilities as well as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. In addition, ASU 2011-11 requires disclosure of collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements. | |
In January 2013, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the scope of disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The amendments clarify that the scope of guidance issued in December 2011 to enhance disclosures around financial instrument and derivative instruments that are either (a) offset, or (b) subject to a master netting agreement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset, applies to derivatives, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Adoption did not have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements. | |
ASU 2011-04 | |
In May 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 includes common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose the following information for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Fund adopted ASU 2011-04 as of January 1, 2012. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2011-04 has not had a material impact on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures. | |

3. Fair Value Measurements | |||||||||||||||||
The Fund follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; | ||||||||||||||||
Level 2: | Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; | ||||||||||||||||
Level 3: | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. | ||||||||||||||||
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Fund separates its financial instruments into two categories: U.S. government securities and derivative contracts. | |||||||||||||||||
U.S. Government Securities. The Fund’s only market exposure in instruments held other than for speculative trading is in its U.S. Treasury Bill portfolio. As the Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing its U.S. Treasury Bill portfolio, which approximates fair value, this portfolio is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
Derivative Contracts. Derivative contracts can be exchange-traded or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether they are deemed to be actively traded or not. The Fund has exposure to exchange-traded derivative contracts through the Fund’s trading of exchange-traded futures contracts. The Fund’s exchange-traded futures contract positions are valued daily at settlement prices published by the applicable exchanges. In such cases, provided they are deemed to be actively traded, exchange-traded derivatives are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Less actively traded exchange-traded derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
OTC derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence whenever possible, including market-based inputs to models, model calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value an OTC derivative depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. For OTC derivatives that trade in liquid markets, such as generic forwards and swaps, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. The OTC derivatives held by the Fund may include forwards and swaps. Spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund are valued at published daily settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes. The Fund’s forward and swap positions are typically classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
Certain OTC derivatives trade in less liquid markets with limited pricing information, and the determination of fair value for these derivatives is inherently more difficult. Such instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Where the Fund does not have corroborating market evidence to support significant model inputs and cannot verify the model to market transactions, transaction price is initially used as the best estimate of fair value. Accordingly, when a pricing model is used to value such an instrument, the model is adjusted so that the model value at inception equals the transaction price. The valuations of these less liquid OTC derivatives are typically based on Level 1 and/or Level 2 inputs that can be observed in the market, as well as unobservable Level 3 inputs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Fund updates the Level 1 and Level 2 inputs to reflect observable market changes, with resulting gains and losses reflected within Level 3. Level 3 inputs are changed only when corroborated by evidence such as similar market transactions, third-party pricing services and/or broker or dealer quotations, or other empirical market data. In circumstances in which the Fund cannot verify the model value to market transactions, it is possible that a different valuation model could produce a materially different estimate of fair value. The Fund attempts to avoid holding less liquid OTC derivatives. However, once held, the market for any particular derivative contract could become less liquid during the holding period. As of and during the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the Fund held no derivative contracts valued using Level 3 inputs. | |||||||||||||||||

4. Disclosure of derivative instruments and hedging activities | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Fund follows ASC 815, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 is intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for, and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations and financial position. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Derivative instruments held by the Fund do not qualify as derivative instruments held as hedging instruments, as defined in ASC 815. Instead, the Fund includes derivative instruments in its trading activity. Per the requirements of ASC 815, the Fund discloses the gains and losses on its trading activities for both derivative and nonderivative instruments in the Statements of Operations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Fund engages in the speculative trading of forward contracts in currency and futures contracts in a wide range of commodities, including equity markets, interest rates, food and fiber, energy, livestock, and metals. ASC 815 requires entities to recognize all derivatives instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. Investments in forward contracts and commodity futures contracts are recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “unrealized appreciation or depreciation on open forward contracts” and “futures contracts purchased” and “futures contracts sold.” Since the derivatives held or sold by the Fund are for speculative trading purposes, the derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under the provisions of ASC 815. Accordingly, all realized gains and losses, as well as any change in net unrealized gains or losses on open positions from the preceding period, are recognized as part of the Fund’s realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Superfund Capital Management believes futures and forward trading activity expressed as a percentage of net assets is indicative of trading activity. Information concerning the fair value of the Fund’s derivatives held long or sold short, as well as information related to the annual average volume of the Fund’s derivative activity, is as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Superfund Capital Management shall be paid a management fee equal to one-twelfth of 1.85% of month-end net assets (1.85% per annum), ongoing offering expenses equal to one-twelfth of 1% of month-end net assets (1% per annum), not to exceed the amount of actual expenses incurred, and monthly operating expenses equal to one-twelfth of 0.15% of month-end net assets (0.15% per annum), not to exceed the amount of actual expenses incurred. Superfund Capital Management will also be paid a monthly performance/incentive fee equal to 25% of the new appreciation without respect to interest income. Trading losses will be carried forward and no further performance/incentive fee may be paid until the prior losses have been recovered. In addition, a portion of the Fund’s brokerage fees will be paid to the clearing brokers for execution and clearing costs and the balance will be paid to Superfund Capital Management for providing services akin to services provided by an introducing broker. Superfund USA, LLC an entity related to Superfund Capital Management by common ownership, shall be paid monthly selling commissions equal to one-twelfth of 4% (4% per annum) of the month-end net asset value of the Fund. However, the maximum cumulative selling commission per Unit is limited to 10% of the initial public offering price of Units sold. Selling commissions charged as of the end of each month in excess of 10% of the initial public offering price of Units sold shall not be paid out to any selling agent but shall instead be held in a separate account. Accrued monthly performance fees, if any, will then be charged against both net assets of the Fund as of month-end, as well as against amounts held in the separate account. Any increase or decrease in net assets and any accrued interest will then be credited or charged to each investor (a “Limited Partner”) on a pro rata basis. The remainder of the amounts held in the separate account, if any, shall then be reinvested in Units as of such month-end, at the current net asset value, for the benefit of the appropriate Limited Partner. The amount of any distribution to a Limited Partner, any amount paid to a Limited Partner on redemption of Units and any redemption fee paid to Superfund Capital Management upon the redemption of Units will be charged to that Limited Partner. Selling commissions are shown gross on the statement of operations and amounts over the 10% selling commission threshold are rebated to the Limited Partner by purchasing Units of the Fund. | |
As of September 30, 2013, Superfund Capital Management owned 386.799 Units of Series A, representing 3.29% of the total issued Units of Series A, and 551.711 Units of Series B, representing 4.42% of the total issued Units of Series B, having a combined value of $1,118,219. |

Financial instrument risk | ' |
9. Financial instrument risk | |
In the normal course of its business, the Fund is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The term “off-balance sheet risk” refers to an unrecorded potential liability that, even though it does not appear on the balance sheet, may result in a future obligation or loss. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specific future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or OTC. Exchange-traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange-traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract. | |
For the Fund, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $784,855 and $1,027,608, respectively, and gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange-traded forwards were $57 and $38, respectively, at September 30, 2013. | |
For Series A, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $272,855 and $356,182, respectively, and gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange-traded forwards were $21 and $9, respectively, at September 30, 2013. | |
For Series B, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $512,000 and $671,426, respectively, and gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange-traded forwards were $36 and $29, respectively, at September 30, 2013. | |
Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Fund due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. In entering into these contracts, there exists a market risk that such contracts may be significantly influenced by conditions such as interest rate volatility, resulting in such contracts being less valuable. If the markets should move against all of the futures interest positions at the same time, and Superfund Capital Management was unable to offset such positions, the Fund could experience substantial losses. | |
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Fund’s risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statements of assets and liabilities and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. As the Fund’s assets are held in segregated accounts with futures commission merchants, the Fund has credit risk and concentration risk. The Fund’s futures commission merchants are currently ADM Investor Services, Inc., Barclays Capital Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. | |
Superfund Capital Management monitors and attempts to control the Fund’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit, and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Fund is subject. These monitoring systems allow Superfund Capital Management to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures and forward positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions, and collateral positions. | |
The majority of these futures and forwards mature within one year of September 30, 2013. However, due to the nature of the Fund’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. |

10. Subscriptions and redemptions | |
Investors must submit subscriptions at least five business days prior to the applicable month-end closing date and they will be accepted once payments are received and cleared. All subscription funds are required to be promptly transmitted to the escrow agent, U.S. Bank National Association. Subscriptions must be accepted or rejected by Superfund Capital Management within five business days of receipt, and the settlement date for the deposit of subscription funds in escrow must be within five business days of acceptance. No fees or costs will be assessed on any subscription while held in escrow, irrespective of whether the subscription is accepted or the subscription funds are returned. | |
A Limited Partner may request any or all of his investment in such Series be redeemed by such Series at the net asset value of a Unit within such Series as of the end of each month, subject to a minimum redemption of $1,000 and subject further to such Limited Partner having an investment in such Series, after giving effect to the requested redemption, at least equal to the minimum initial investment amount of $10,000. Limited Partners must transmit a written request of such redemption to Superfund Capital Management not less than five business days prior to the end of the month (or such shorter period as permitted by Superfund Capital Management) as of which the redemption is to be effective. Redemptions will generally be paid within twenty days after the effective date of the redemption. However, in special circumstances, including, but not limited to, inability to liquidate dealers’ positions as of a redemption date or default or delay in payments due to each Series from clearing brokers, banks or other persons or entities, each Series may in turn delay payment to persons requesting redemption of the proportionate part of the net assets of each Series represented by the sums that are subject of such default or delay. The Prospectus of the Fund dated May 1, 2013 included within the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-184998) provides if the net asset value per Unit within a Series as of the end of any business day declines by 50% or more from either the prior year-end or the prior month-end Unit value of such Series, Superfund Capital Management will suspend trading activities, notify all Limited Partners within such Series of the relevant facts within seven business days and declare a special redemption period. |

11. Indemnification | |
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund, and therefore cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote. |

Basis of Presentation | |
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) with respect to the Form 10-Q and reflect all adjustments which in the opinion of management are normal and recurring, and which are necessary for a fair statement of the results of interim periods presented. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes included in the Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. | |
Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts, Forward Contracts and U.S Treasury Bills | ' |
Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts, Forward Contracts, and U.S. Treasury Bills | |
All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on a trade date basis and open contracts are recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotes are readily available. | |
Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at settlement prices published by the recognized exchange. Any spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund will be valued at published settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes. The Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing U.S. Treasury Bills due to the short-term nature of such instruments; accordingly, the cost of securities plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium approximates fair value (See Section 3 – Fair Value Measurements). | |
Translation of Foreign Currency | ' |
Translation of Foreign Currency | |
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the period-end exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expenses that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the transaction date. Adjustments arising from foreign currency transactions are reflected in the Statements of Operations. | |
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the statements of operations. | |
Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses | ' |
Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses | |
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. The Fund uses the amortized cost method for valuing U.S. Treasury Bills. Operating expenses of the Fund are allocated to each Series in proportion to the net asset value of the Series at the beginning of each month. Expenses directly attributable to a particular Series are charged directly to that Series. | |
Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains and losses on open contracts (the difference between contract trade price and market price) are reported in the Statements of Operations as a net gain or loss, as there exists a right of offset of unrealized gains or losses in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 210-20, Offsetting – Balance Sheet. | |
Set forth herein are instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and which are subject to derivative clearing agreements with the Fund’s futures commission merchants. Each futures commission merchant nets margin held on behalf of each Series of the Fund or payment obligations of the futures commission merchant to each Series against any payment obligations of that Series to the futures commission merchant. Each Series is required to deposit margin at each futures commission merchant to meet the original and maintenance requirements established by that futures commission merchant, and/or the exchange or clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which the instrument is traded. The derivative clearing agreements give each futures commission merchant a security interest in this margin to secure any liabilities owed to the futures commission merchant arising from a default by the Series. As of September 30, 2013, the Fund had on deposit $6,418,285 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $3,531,430 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $1,991,839 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. As of September 30, 2013, Series A had on deposit $2,270,907 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $1,571,612 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $713,843 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. As of September 30, 2013, Series B had on deposit $4,147,378 at ADM Investor Services, Inc., $1,959,818 at Barclays Capital Inc. and $1,277,996 at Citigroup Global Markets Inc. | |
Income Taxes | ' |
Income Taxes | |
The Fund does not record a provision for U.S. income taxes because the partners report their share of the Fund’s income or loss on their returns. The financial statements reflect the Fund’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for income tax purposes. | |
Superfund Capital Management has evaluated the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), to the Fund, to determine whether or not there are uncertain tax positions that require financial statement recognition. Based on this evaluation, Superfund Capital Management has determined no reserves for uncertain tax positions are required to be recorded as a result of the application of ASC 740. Superfund Capital Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. As a result, no income tax liability or expense has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Fund files federal and various state tax returns. The 2010 through 2012 tax years generally remain subject to examination by the U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. | |
Use of Estimates | ' |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Superfund Capital Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | |

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | |
ASU 2011-11 | |
In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2011-11”). ASU 2011-11 requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The new disclosure requirements mandate that entities disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of assets and liabilities as well as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. In addition, ASU 2011-11 requires disclosure of collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements. | |
In January 2013, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the scope of disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The amendments clarify that the scope of guidance issued in December 2011 to enhance disclosures around financial instrument and derivative instruments that are either (a) offset, or (b) subject to a master netting agreement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset, applies to derivatives, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Adoption did not have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements. | |
ASU 2011-04 | |
In May 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 includes common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose the following information for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for all transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Fund adopted ASU 2011-04 as of January 1, 2012. The adoption of the provisions of ASU 2011-04 has not had a material impact on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures. |
