Dear Mr. DiStefano:
Thank you for your telephonic comments on May 29, 2013 regarding the post-effective amendments to the registration statements for each of Aetos Capital Multi-Strategy Arbitrage Fund, LLC, Aetos Capital Distressed Investment Strategies Fund, LLC and Aetos Capital Long/Short Strategies Fund, LLC, (each a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 23, 2013. Please see our response below which provides a supplemental explanation of your comment.
Comment 1. | The following statement is made under the heading “Fundamental Policies” on page 1 of the Statement of Additional Information (the “SAI”): “The Fund may not: Invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets in the securities (other than U.S. Government securities) of issuers engaged in any single industry. The foregoing restriction shall not apply to the Fund’s investments in money market instruments or money market funds. This restriction also does not apply the Fund’s investments in Portfolio Funds.” Please definitively confirm that the Funds will look through to the holdings of unaffiliated funds if a Fund knows or has reason to know that such funds are concentrated. | |||
Response 1. In response to the Staff’s comment, the Funds confirm to the Staff supplementally that the Funds will look through to the holdings of Portfolio Funds for the purposes of complying with the concentration limitation noted above if a Fund knows or has reason to know that such funds are concentrated. |
