1. Organization
RiverPark Funds Trust (the “Trust”), was formed on June 22, 2010 as an open-end registered management investment company under the Investment Act of 1940. As of March 31, 2022, the Trust was comprised of six funds: the RiverPark Large Growth Fund, Wedgewood Fund, RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund, RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund, RiverPark Strategic Income Fund and the RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). The investment objective of the RiverPark Large Growth Fund and Wedgewood Fund is to seek long term capital appreciation. The investment objective of the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund, RiverPark Strategic Income Fund and the RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund is to seek high current income and capital appreciation consistent with the preservation of capital. The investment objective of the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation while managing downside volatility. Each of the Funds is diversified with the exception of the Wedgewood Fund and the RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund which are non-diversified. Each Fund is registered to offer Institutional Class Shares and Retail Class Shares. Each of the Funds, except the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and the RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund, have registered Class C Shares but they are not intended to be offered at this time. Each class differs as to ongoing fees.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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. The Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.
Valuation of Investments — Securities listed on a national securities exchange or traded on the NASDAQ system are valued on their last sale price. Portfolio securities traded on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price on each business day for the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). If there is no such reported sale on an exchange or NASDAQ, the portfolio security will be valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked price. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Other equity securities and debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between their bid and asked price, except that debt securities maturing within 60 days are valued on an amortized cost basis. Debt securities are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, which will ordinarily be over-the-counter. Debt securities may be valued based on prices provided by a pricing service when such prices are believed to reflect the fair value of such securities. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith through consideration of other factors in accordance with procedures adopted by, and under the general supervision of, the Board of Trustees (“the Board”).
To the extent that a Fund invests in non-U.S. dollar denominated securities, the value of all assets and liabilities not denominated in United States dollars will be translated into United States dollars on the valuation date. Trading in securities on European and Far Eastern securities exchanges and over-the-counter markets is normally completed well before the close of business on each day the NYSE is open for business (a “business day”). In addition, European or Far Eastern securities trading generally or in a particular country or countries may not take place on all business days in New York. Furthermore, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days, which are not business days in New York, and on which net asset value is not calculated. Such calculation does not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of the majority of the portfolio securities used in such calculation. Events affecting the values of portfolio securities that occur between the time their prices are determined and the close of the NYSE will not be reflected in a Fund’s calculation of net assets unless the Trustees deem that the particular event would materially affect net asset value, in which case an adjustment will be made.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Options are valued at the last quoted sales price. If there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, long positions are valued at the most recent bid price, and short positions are valued at the most recent ask price.
Foreign currency forward contracts are valued at the current day’s interpolated foreign exchange rate, as calculated using forward rates provided by an independent source.
Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the resulting changes in market values, are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurement and disclosure under GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
● | Level 1 — | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date; |
● | Level 2 — | Other significant observable inputs (includes quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in active markets, etc.); and |
● | Level 3 — | Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). |
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For details of the investment classification, refer to the Schedules of Investments, Schedule of Securities Sold Short, Not Yet Purchased, lists of open forward currency contracts, lists of open option contracts and list of open swap contracts.
Securities Sold Short, Not Yet Purchased — As consistent with the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund’s investment objectives, the Fund intends to sell securities short so long as, as a result of that sale, the current value of securities sold short, not yet purchased by the Fund would not exceed 50% of the value of its gross assets (including the amounts borrowed) and 100% of the value of its net assets.
As consistent with the RiverPark Strategic Income Fund’s investment objectives, the Fund intends to sell securities short so long as, as a result of that sale, the current value of securities sold short, not yet purchased by the Fund would not exceed 15% of the value of its net assets. A short sale is the sale by a fund of a security, which it does not own in anticipation of purchasing the same security in the future. To complete such a transaction, the Funds must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Funds are then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of the replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the Funds. Until the security is replaced, the Funds are required to pay the lender amounts equal to any dividends that accrue during the period of the loan. Dividends and interest are shown as an expense for financial reporting purposes. To borrow the security, the Funds also may be required to pay a fee, which is shown as an expense for financial reporting purposes. The proceeds of the short sale are retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. A realized gain, limited to the price at which the Funds sold the security short, or a realized loss, unlimited in size on a standalone basis, will be recognized upon the close of a short sale.

|
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Until the Funds close their short position or replace the borrowed security, the Funds will maintain a segregated account with its custodian containing marginable securities. The Funds may be required to add to the segregated account as the market price of a shorted security increases. As a result of maintaining and adding to its segregated account, the Funds may maintain higher levels of marginable assets (for example, long equity positions) for collateral needs thus reducing their overall managed assets available for trading purposes.
The realized and unrealized gain (loss) from securities sold short, if any, are disclosed separately on the Statements of Operations.
Written/Purchased Options — Each of the Funds may purchase call and put options on securities to seek capital growth or for hedging purposes. Each Fund may also write and sell covered call and put options as well as purchase and write options on stock indices (such as the S&P 500 Index) listed on domestic or foreign securities exchanges or traded in the over-the-counter market for hedging purposes. Additionally, the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund may sell uncovered call and put options on securities and stock indices.
The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund may invest up to 50% of the value of their assets, represented by premiums paid, to purchase call and put options on securities and securities indices. The Funds may write covered call and put options on securities and securities indices, so long as the aggregate nominal value does not exceed 200% of the value of its assets.
An option on a security provides the purchaser, or “holder,” with the right, but not the obligation, to purchase, in the case of a “call” option, or sell, in the case of a “put” option, the security or securities underlying the option, for a fixed exercise price up to a stated expiration date. The holder pays a nonrefundable purchase price for the option, known as the “premium.” The maximum amount of risk the purchaser of the option assumes is equal to the premium plus related transaction costs, although the entire amount may be lost. The risk of the seller, or “writer,” however, is potentially unlimited, unless the option is “covered,” which is generally accomplished through the writer’s ownership of the underlying security, in the case of a call option, or the writer’s segregation of an amount of cash or securities equal to the exercise price, in the case of a put option. If the writer’s obligation is not covered, it is subject to the risk of the full change in value of the underlying security from the time the option is written until exercise.
The realized and unrealized gain (loss) from purchased and written options, if any, are disclosed separately on the Statements of Operations. For the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund, subject to equity risk exposure, the net realized gain on written options was $6 (000) for the period ended March 31, 2022 (See Note 3 for risk exposures on the RiverPark Strategic Income Fund).
For the period ended March 31, 2022, the average delta-adjusted monthly market value of equity options was as follows (000):
Purchased Options | | | | |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | | $ | 271 | |
Written Options | | | | |
RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund | | $ | (670 | ) |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | | $ | 533 | |
Swap Agreements — The Funds may invest in equity-linked securities, including, but not limited to, participation notes, certificates, and equity swaps. Equity-linked securities are privately issued securities whose investment results are designed to correspond generally to the performance of a specified stock index or “basket” of stocks, or a single stock. To the extent that the Funds invest in equity-linked securities whose return corresponds to the performance of a foreign security index or one or more foreign stocks, investing in equity-linked securities will involve risks similar to the risks of investing in foreign securities and subject to each Fund’s restrictions on investments in foreign securities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Equity swaps allow the parties to a swap agreement to exchange the dividend income or other components of return on an equity investment (for example, a group of equity securities or an index) for a component of return on another non-equity or equity investment. An equity swap may be used by a Fund to invest in a market without owning or taking physical custody of securities in circumstances in which direct investment may be restricted for legal reasons or is otherwise deemed impractical or disadvantageous. Equity swaps may also be used for hedging purposes or to seek to increase exposure and total return. A Fund’s ability to enter into certain swap transactions may be limited by tax considerations. The counterparty to an equity swap contract will typically be a bank, investment banking firm or broker/dealer.
Equity swaps are derivatives and their value can be very volatile. Equity swaps normally do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to equity swaps is normally limited to the net amount of payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the counterparty to an equity swap defaults, a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that such Fund is contractually entitled to receive. Because some swap agreements have a leverage component, adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, reference rate, or index can result in a loss substantially greater than the cost of the underlying asset without the use of leverage. In addition, the value of some components of an equity swap (such as the dividends on a common stock) may also be sensitive to changes in interest rates. To the extent that the Adviser does not accurately analyze and predict the potential relative fluctuation of the components swapped with another party, a Fund may suffer a loss. Because equity swaps can be illiquid, a Fund may be unable to terminate its obligations when desired. When entering into swap contracts, a Fund must “set aside” liquid assets, or engage in other appropriate measures to “cover” its obligation under the swap contract.
Swaps are marked-to-market daily and are valued at the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the instrument based upon quotations from market makers or a pricing service and the resulting changes in market values, if any, are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. For the Long/Short Opportunity Fund, the net change in unrealized loss on swap contracts was $31,803 (000) for the period ended March 31, 2022. Periodic reset payments on the total return swap are inclusive of interest, commissions and dividends, which are recorded as part of the net realized gains and losses in the Statements of Operations. For the Long/Short Opportunity Fund, the net realized loss on swap contracts was $22,582 (000) for the period ended March 31, 2022.
For the period ended March 31, 2022, (subject to equity risk exposure) the average notional value of equity swaps for the Long/Short Opportunity Fund was as follows (000):
RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund | | | | |
Average Monthly Notional Value Long | | $ | 140,963 | |
Average Monthly Notional Value Short | | $ | (225,284 | ) |
There is the risk that the counterparty refuses to continue to enter into swap agreements with the Funds in the future, or requires increased fees, which could impair the Funds’ ability to achieve their investment objective. A counterparty may also increase its collateral requirements, which may limit the Funds’ ability to use leverage and reduce investment returns. In addition, if the Funds cannot locate a counterparty willing to enter into transactions with the Funds, they will not be able to implement their investment strategy. For the period ended March 31, 2022, the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund entered into swap agreements with only one counterparty, Goldman Sachs International.
To reduce counterparty risk with respect to Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) transactions, the Funds have entered into master netting arrangements, established within the Funds’ International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) master agreements, which allow the Funds to make (or to have an entitlement to receive) a single net payment in the event of default (close-out netting) for outstanding payables and receivables with respect to certain OTC positions in purchased equity options and swaps for each individual counterparty. In addition, the Funds may require that certain counterparties post cash and/or securities in collateral accounts to cover their net payment obligations for those derivative contracts subject to ISDA master agreements. If the counterparty fails to perform under these contracts and agreements, the cash and/or securities will be made available to the Funds.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The following is a summary by counterparty of the market value of swap agreements and collateral (received)/pledged for the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund as of March 31, 2022 (000)*†:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Gross Amounts not offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | |
| | Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets | | | Gross Amounts Offsets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | | | Net Amounts Presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | | | Financial Instruments for Offset | | | Cash Collateral Received (Pledged)* | | | Net Amount | |
| | $ | 6,983 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 6,983 | | | $ | (26,590 | ) | | $ | — | | | $ | (19,607 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Gross Amounts not offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | |
| | Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities | | | Gross Amounts Offsets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | | | Net Amounts Presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities | | | Financial Instruments for Offset | | | Cash Collateral Received (Pledged)* | | | Net Amount | |
| | $ | (26,590 | ) | | $ | — | | | $ | (26,590 | ) | | $ | 26,590 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
† | Net exposures represents the net receivable/(payable) that would be due from/to the counterparty in the event of default. Exposure from swaps can only be netted across transactions governed under the same master agreement with the same legal entity. |
* | Collateral received/pledged is limited to the net outstanding amount due to/from an individual counterparty. The actual collateral amount received/pledged may exceed this amount and may fluctuate in value. |
For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events.
Collateral terms are contract specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded under an ISDA master agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark to market amount of each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Funds or the counterparty.
For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer has to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Funds from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Funds bear the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance.
Master Limited Partnerships — The Funds may invest in master limited partnerships (“MLPs”). MLPs are limited partnerships or limited liability companies, whose partnership units or limited liability interests are listed and traded on a U.S. securities exchange, and are treated as publicly traded partnerships for federal income tax purposes. To qualify to be treated as a partnership for tax purposes, an MLP must receive at least 90% of its income from qualifying sources as set forth in Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). These qualifying sources include interest, dividend, real property rent, gain from sale or other disposition of real property and income from activities such as

|
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
the exploration, development, mining, production, processing, refining, transportation, storage and marketing of mineral or natural resources. MLPs generally have two classes of owners, the general partner and limited partners. MLPs that are formed as limited liability companies generally have two analogous classes of owners, the managing member and the members. For purposes of this section, references to general partners also apply to managing members and references to limited partners also apply to members. The general partner is typically owned by a major energy company, an investment fund, the direct management of the MLP or is an entity owned by one or more of such parties. The general partner may be structured as a private or publicly traded corporation or other entity. The general partner typically controls the operations and management of the MLP through an equity interest of as much as 2% in the MLP plus, in many cases, ownership of common units and subordinated units. Limited partners own the remainder of the MLP through ownership of common units and have a limited role in the MLP’s operations and management.
An investment in MLP units involves certain risks which differ from an investment in the securities of a corporation. Holders of MLP units have limited control and voting rights on matters affecting the partnership. In addition, there are certain tax risks associated with an investment in MLP units and conflicts of interest exist between common unit holders and the general partner, including those arising from incentive distribution payments. As a partnership, an MLP has no tax liability at the entity level. If, as a result of a change in current law or a change in an MLP’s business, an MLP were treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, such MLP would be obligated to pay federal income tax on its income at the corporate tax rate. If an MLP were classified as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, the amount of cash available for distribution by the MLP would be reduced and distributions received by investors would be taxed under federal income tax laws applicable to corporate dividends (as dividend income, return of capital, or capital gain). Therefore, treatment of an MLP as a corporation for federal income tax purposes would result in a reduction in the after-tax return to investors, likely causing a reduction in the value of the Funds’ shares. Dividends from MLPs are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Investment Transactions — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date, the date the order to buy or sell is executed. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized to interest income using the effective interest method. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income and expenses and other distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain dividends and distributions from foreign securities which are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. The ability of issuers of debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in a specific country or region.
Defaulted Investments — Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivable when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured.
Expenses — Expenses of the Trust that can be directly attributed to a particular Fund are borne by that Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the Funds of the Trust based on the number of Funds and/or relative net assets.
Classes — Class specific expenses are borne by that class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains and losses and non-class specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets.
Foreign Currency Translation — The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statements of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from

|
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — Each Fund may, but is not obligated to, enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) in order to protect against uncertainty in the level of future foreign exchange rates in the purchases and sale of securities. A forward contract generally has no deposit requirement, and no commissions are charged at any stage for trades. Although foreign exchange dealers do not charge a fee for commissions, they do realize a profit based on the difference between the price at which they are buying and selling various currencies. Although forward contracts are intended to minimize currency risk — the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currencies — at the same time, they tend to limit any potential gain which might result should the value of such currencies increase. As of March 31, 2022, the RiverPark Strategic Income Fund and the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund held forward contracts as currency hedges against foreign bonds. It is the Funds’ policy to present the gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation of the forward contracts separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, as the Funds do not have a master netting agreement with the counterparty to the forward contracts. As of March 31, 2022, the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund entered into one-month forward contracts with one counterparty, Brown Brothers Harriman. In accordance with this policy, the unrealized appreciation and depreciation as of March 31, 2022, is presented as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward foreign currency contracts on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) on forward foreign currency contracts are disclosed separately on the Statements of Operations. For the period ended March 31, 2022, subject to currency risk exposure, the average balances of the forward contracts were as follows (000) (See Note 3 for risk exposures on the RiverPark Strategic Income Fund).
Average Monthly Notional Contracts: | | | | |
RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund | | $ | 40,777 | |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | | $ | 19,023 | |
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid to shareholders annually for the RiverPark Large Growth Fund, Wedgewood Fund and RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund, and declared and paid monthly for the RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund, RiverPark Strategic Income Fund and the RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Any net realized capital gains will be distributed at least annually by the Funds.
Income Taxes — Each Fund intends to qualify or continue to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If so qualified, each Fund will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to its shareholders.
The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more-likely-than not” (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 3 tax year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of, and changes to, tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
As of and during the period ended March 31, 2022, the Funds did not have a tax liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year, the Funds did not incur any significant interest or penalties.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with a maturity date at time of purchase of three months or less. The Funds maintain cash and cash equivalent balances which, at times during the period, exceeded the $250,000 amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Manager manages the risk of loss by banking with major institutions.
3. Derivatives Transactions
The following tables include RiverPark Strategic Income Fund’s exposure by type of risk on derivatives held throughout the period.

4. Agreements
Investment Advisory Agreement — RiverPark Advisors, LLC (“RiverPark”) serves as the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”). The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its fees and to absorb expenses of each Fund through January 31, 2023 to the extent necessary to ensure that ordinary operating expenses of each class (excluding interest, brokerage commissions, dividends on short sales and interest expense on securities sold short, not yet purchased, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed, on an annual basis, certain levels as set forth below.
The table below shows the rate of each Funds’ investment advisory fee and the Adviser’s contractual expense limitation for each Fund:
Fund | Advisory Fee Before Contractual Fee Reduction | Expense Limitation (Institutional Class) | Expense Limitation (Retail Class) | Expense Limitation (Class C)* |
RiverPark Large Growth Fund | 0.65% | 1.00% | 1.25% | 2.00% |
Wedgewood Fund | 0.65% | 1.00% | 1.25% | 2.00% |
RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund | 0.65% | 1.00% | 1.25% | N/A |
RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund | 1.50% | 1.85% | 2.00% | 2.85% |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | 0.65% | 1.00% | 1.25% | 2.00% |
RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund | 0.65% | 0.85% | 1.25% | N/A |
* | Class C Shares are not currently being offered for sale to investors. |
The Funds have each agreed to repay the Adviser in the amount of any fees waived and Fund expenses absorbed, subject to the limitations that: (1) the reimbursement is made only for fees and expenses incurred not more than three years prior to the date of reimbursement; and (2) the reimbursement will not be made if it would cause the annual expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver or at the time of the reimbursement to be exceeded. This arrangement will remain in effect unless and until the Board approves its modification or termination. The Adviser can recapture any fees it has waived within a three-year period subject to the applicable annual rates in the above table.
For the period ended March 31, 2022, the Adviser fee waiver analysis is as follows:

Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 2022 (Unaudited) | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001398344-22-011693/fp0076298_46.jpg)
|
6. Federal Tax Information (continued)
Deferred late-year losses represent ordinary losses realized on investment transactions from January 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021 and specified losses realized on investment transactions from November 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021.
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund, RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund, RiverPark Strategic Income Fund and RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund had Post-October losses of $3,233,845, $3,980,793, $1,569,002 and $13,977,925, respectively. The Funds elect to treat each as having arisen in the following fiscal year.
Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and such losses will retain their character as either short-term or long-term. As of March 31, 2022, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards as follows (000):
| | Short-Term Loss | | | Long-Term Loss | | | Total | |
RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund | | $ | 12,810 | | | $ | 14,883 | | | $ | 27,693 | |
RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund | | | 10,602 | | | | — | | | | 10,602 | |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | | | 8,055 | | | | 54,894 | | | | 62,949 | |
RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund | | | 6,454 | | | | 5,243 | | | | 11,697 | |
During the year ended September 30, 2021, the Funds did not utilize capital loss carryforwards to offset capital gains.
For federal income tax purposes, the cost of investments owned at September 30, 2021 and the net realized gains or losses on securities sold for the period could be different from amounts reported for financial reporting purposes, due to partnership basis adjustments and book versus tax adjustment such as wash sales which cannot be used for federal income tax purposes in the current year and have been deferred for use in future years. The federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments, foreign currency and derivatives held by the Funds were as follows (000):
Fund | | Federal Tax Cost | | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized Appreciation | | | Aggregate Gross Unrealized Depreciation | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
RiverPark Large Growth Fund | | $ | 48,955 | | | $ | 17,755 | | | $ | (7,310 | ) | | $ | 10,445 | |
Wedgewood Fund | | | 23,923 | | | | 12,237 | | | | (206 | ) | | | 12,031 | |
RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund | | | 1,022,475 | | | | 2,149 | | | | (6,003 | ) | | | (3,854 | ) |
RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund | | | 202,916 | | | | 77,775 | | | | (20,285 | ) | | | 57,490 | |
RiverPark Strategic Income Fund | | | 193,564 | | | | 2,355 | | | | (7,857 | ) | | | (5,502 | ) |
RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund | | | 37,265 | | | | — | | | | (640 | ) | | | (640 | ) |
7. Risks
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund invest in fixed-income instruments that are or are rated below investment grade by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Corporation and accordingly involve greater risk. Such securities are regarded as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligations and involve major risk to adverse conditions. These securities offer higher returns than bonds with higher ratings as compensation for holding an obligation of an issuer perceived to be less creditworthy. Changes in economic conditions or developments regarding issuers of non-investment grade debt securities are more likely to cause price volatility and weaken the capacity of such issuers to make principal and interest payments than is the case for higher grade debt securities. In addition, the market for lower grade debt securities may be thinner and less active than for higher grade debt securities.
46
Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 2022 (Unaudited) | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001398344-22-011693/fp0076298_47.jpg)
|
7. Risks (continued)
High-yield securities are generally not exchange-traded and, as a result, these instruments trade in a smaller secondary market than exchange-traded bonds. In addition, the Funds invest in bonds of issuers that do not have publicly traded equity securities, making it more difficult to hedge the risks associated with such investments.
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund may invest in securities of companies that are experiencing significant financial or business difficulties, including companies involved in bankruptcy or other reorganization and liquidation proceedings. Although such investments may result in significant returns to the Funds, they involve a substantial degree of risk.
The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund are exposed to the risks of using leverage and short sales. The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund may use leverage. Leverage is the practice of borrowing money to purchase securities. These investment practices involve special risks. Leverage can increase the investment returns of the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund if the securities purchased increase in value in an amount exceeding the cost of the borrowing. However, if the securities decrease in value, the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund will suffer a greater loss than would have resulted without the use of leverage. A short sale is the sale by the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund of a security which it does not own in anticipation of purchasing the same security in the future at a lower price to close the short position. A short sale will be successful if the price of the shorted security decreases. However, if the underlying security goes up in price during the period in which the short position is outstanding, the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund will recognize a loss. The risk on a standalone or unhedged short sale is unlimited because the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund must buy the shorted security at the higher price to complete the transaction. Therefore, short sales may be subject to greater risks than investments in long positions. With a long position, the maximum sustainable loss is limited to the amount paid for the security plus the transaction costs, whereas there is no maximum attainable price of the shorted security.
The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund are able to invest in options which expose investors to the risks inherent in trading options. These risks include, but are not limited to, volatile movements in the price of the underlying instrument and misjudgments as to the future prices of the options and/or the underlying instrument. Increased option volatility can increase both the profit potential and the risk associated with a fund’s trading. While volatility can be monitored and reacted to, there is no cost-effective means of hedging against market volatility.
Selling options creates additional risks. The seller of a “naked” call option (or the seller of a put option who has a short position in the underlying instrument) is subject to the risk of a rise in the price in the underlying instrument above the strike price, which risk is reduced only by the premium received for selling the option. In exchange for the proceeds received from selling the call option (in lieu of an outright short position), the option seller gives up (or will not participate in) all of the potential gain resulting from a decrease in the price of the underlying instrument below the strike price prior to expiration of the option.
The seller of a “naked” put option (or the seller of a call option who has a long position in the underlying instrument) is subject to the risk of a decline in price of the underlying instrument below the strike price, which risk is reduced only by the proceeds received from selling the option. In exchange for the premium received for selling the put option (in lieu of an outright long position), the option seller gives up (or will not participate in) all of the potential gain resulting from an increase in the price of the underlying instrument above the strike price prior to the expiration of the option. Due to the inherent leveraged nature of options, a relatively small adverse move in the price of the underlying instrument may result in immediate and substantial losses to a Fund.
The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund invests in swaps. The use of swaps is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques, risk analyses and tax planning different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. These transactions can result in sizeable realized and unrealized capital gains and losses relative to the gains and losses from the Fund’s direct investments in the reference assets and short sales. Transactions in swaps can involve greater risks than if the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund had invested directly in the reference asset
47
Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 2022 (Unaudited) | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001398344-22-011693/fp0076298_48.jpg)
|
7. Risks (continued)
because, in addition to general market risks, swaps are also subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk, credit risk and valuation risk. Because they are two-party contracts and because they may have terms of greater than seven days, swap transactions may be considered to be illiquid. Moreover, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap in the event of the default or bankruptcy of the swap counterparty. Swaps may also be subject to pricing or “basis” risk, which exists when a particular swap becomes extraordinarily expensive relative to historical prices or the price of corresponding cash market instruments. Under certain market conditions it may not be economically feasible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position in time to avoid a loss or take advantage of an opportunity. As a registered investment company, the Fund must “set aside” liquid assets (often referred to as “asset segregation”), or engage in other approved measures to “cover” open positions with respect to certain kinds of derivatives instruments. The Fund reserves the right to modify its asset segregation policies in the future to comply with any changes in the SEC’s positions regarding asset segregation.
The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund is exposed to counterparty credit risk through its investment in swap contracts. The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of default or bankruptcy of the counterparty, or if the counterparty fails to honor its obligations. The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund has entered into swap agreements with a single counterparty (Goldman Sachs International), focusing its exposure to the counterparty credit risk of that single counterparty. Furthermore, the swap counterparty’s obligation to the RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund likely will not be collateralized. The RiverPark Long/Short Opportunity Fund typically settles swap agreements on a rolling 13-month basis.
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Fund may invest in bank loan obligations. The secondary market for loans is a private, unregulated inter-dealer or inter-bank resale market. Purchases and sales of loans are generally subject to contractual restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought or sold. These restrictions may impede the Fund’s ability to buy or sell loans and may negatively impact the transaction price. It may take longer than seven days for transactions in loans to settle. The Fund may hold cash, sell investments or temporarily borrow from banks or other lenders to meet short-term liquidity needs due to the extended loan settlement process, such as to satisfy redemption requests from Fund shareholders.
The Wedgewood Fund and RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund are non-diversified, which means that it may hold larger positions in a smaller number of individual securities than if it were diversified. This means that increases or decreases in the value of any of the individual securities owned by the Funds may have a greater impact on the Fund’s net asset value and total return than would be the case in a diversified fund which would likely hold more securities. Therefore, the Fund’s value may fluctuate more, and it could incur greater losses as a result of decreases in the value of any one of its holdings, than if it had invested in a larger number of stocks.
The Information Technology sector is an important sector for growth-oriented strategies and thus may represent a large percentage of the investments of RiverPark Large Growth, RiverPark Long/Short and Wedgewood. The sector includes a number of important industries such as software & services, hardware & equipment, and semiconductors. Investments in Information Technology are potentially riskier than investments in more mature industries because the nature of technology is that it is rapidly changing. Therefore, products or services that may initially look promising may subsequently fail or become obsolete and barriers to entry are difficult to determine. Additionally, valuations are often higher, and price movements may be more volatile.
The RiverPark Floating Rate CMBS Fund will invest in commercial real estate debt securities (“CRE Debt”). CRE Debt securities are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgages. CRE Debt may react differently to changes in interest rates than other bonds and the prices of CRE Debt may reflect adverse economic and market conditions. Small movements in interest rates may significantly reduce the value of CRE Debt.
The CRE Debt securities in which the Fund is expected to invest are subject to the risks of the underlying mortgage loans. Commercial mortgage loans are secured by commercial property and are subject to risks of delinquency and foreclosure, and risks of loss. The ability of a borrower to repay a loan secured by an income-producing property typically is
48
Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 2022 (Unaudited) | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001398344-22-011693/fp0076298_49.jpg)
|
7. Risks (continued)
dependent primarily upon the successful operation of such property rather than upon the existence of independent income or assets of the borrower. If the net operating income of the property is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired. Net operating income of an income-producing property can be affected by, among other things, tenant mix, success of tenant businesses, property management decisions, property location and condition, competition from comparable types of properties, changes in laws that increase operating expense or limit rents that may be charged, any need to address environmental contamination at the property, the occurrence of any uninsured casualty at the property, changes in national, regional or local economic conditions and/or specific industry segments, declines in regional or local real estate values, declines in regional or local rental or occupancy rates, increases in interest rates, real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies, including environmental legislation, acts of God, terrorism, social unrest and civil disturbances.
Difficult conditions in the markets for CRE Debt securities and mortgage-related assets as well as the broader financial markets have in the past resulted in a temporary but significant contraction in liquidity for CRE Debt securities. Liquidity relates to the ability of the Fund to sell its investments in a timely manner at a price approximately equal to its value on the Fund’s books. To the extent that the market for CRE Debt securities suffers such a contraction, securities that were considered liquid at the time of investment could become temporarily illiquid, and the Sub-Adviser may experience delays or difficulty in selling assets at the prices at which the Fund carries such assets, which may result in a loss to the Fund. There is no way to predict reliably when such market conditions could re-occur or how long such conditions could persist.
CMBS may involve the risks of delinquent payments of interest and principal, early prepayments and potentially unrecoverable principal loss from the sale of foreclosed property. Subordinated classes of CMBS are generally entitled to receive repayment of principal only after all required principal payments have been made to more senior classes and also have subordinated rights as to receipt of interest distributions. Such subordinated classes are subject to a greater risk of non-payment than are senior classes.
Geopolitical and Health Crisis Risks. Geopolitical events and health crises, including pandemics, war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, natural and environmental disasters, and other public health crises and related events and governments’ reactions to such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. The increasing interconnectedness of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by such events even if they occur in a single country or region. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the Funds and their investments. A health crisis may also exacerbate other pre-existing risks. The COVID-19 global pandemic and related shutdowns have caused, and could cause in the future, substantial market volatility and exchange trading suspensions and closures, affecting both the liquidity and the volatility of the Funds’ investments.
CLOs (collateralized loan obligations) and other similarly structured securities are types of asset-backed securities. The cash flows from the CLO trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the bulk of defaults from the loans in the trust and serves to protect the other, more senior tranches from default. Since it is partially protected from defaults, a senior tranche from CLO trust typically has higher ratings and lower yields than the underlying securities, and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CLO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults and aversion to CLO securities as a class. The risks of an investment in a CLO depend largely on the collateral and the class of the CLO in which the Fund invests. Normally, CLOs and other similarly structured securities are privately offered and sold, and thus are not registered under the securities laws.
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Funds may invest in securities that are purchased in private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) transactions. Securities acquired by the Fund in such transactions are subject to resale restrictions under securities laws. While issuers in PIPE transactions typically agree that they will register the securities for resale by the Fund after the transaction closes (thereby removing resale restrictions), there is no guarantee that the securities will in fact be registered. In addition, a PIPE issuer may require the Fund to agree to other
49

|
7. Risks (continued)
resale restrictions as a condition to the sale of such securities. Thus, the Fund’s ability to resell securities acquired in PIPE transactions may be limited, and even though a public market may exist for such securities, the securities held by the Fund may be deemed illiquid.
The RiverPark Short Term High Yield Fund and RiverPark Strategic Income Funds may invest in stock, warrants, and other securities of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) or similar special purpose entities that pool funds to seek potential acquisition opportunities. Unless and until an acquisition is completed, a SPAC generally invests its assets (less a portion retained to cover expenses) in U.S. Government securities, money market fund securities and cash; if an acquisition that meets the requirements for the SPAC is not completed within a pre-established period of time, the invested funds are returned to the entity’s shareholders. Because SPACs and similar entities are in essence blank check companies without an operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the entity’s management to identify and complete a profitable acquisition. Some SPACs may pursue acquisitions only within certain industries or regions, which may increase the volatility of their prices. In addition, these securities, which are typically traded in the over-the-counter market, may be considered illiquid and/or be subject to restrictions on resale.
A more complete description of risks is included in each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

9. New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The main objective of the new guidance is to provide relief to companies that will be impacted by the expected change in benchmark interest rates at the end of 2021, when participating banks will no longer be required to submit LIBOR quotes by the FCA. The new guidance allows companies to, provided the only change to existing contracts are a change to an approved benchmark interest rate, account for modifications as a continuance of the existing contract without additional analysis. For new and existing contracts, the Funds may elect to apply the amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently assessing the impact of the ASU’s adoption to the Funds’ financial statements and various filings
10. Subsequent Events
The Funds have evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no adjustments were required to the financial statements.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/N-CSRS/0001398344-22-011693/fp0076298_52.jpg)

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.
Operating expenses such as these are deducted from a mutual fund’s gross income and directly reduce its final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of a mutual fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as a mutual fund’s expense ratio.
The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table on the following page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways.
● Actual Fund Return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense from the Fund’s gross investment return.
You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your actual account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period”.
● Hypothetical 5% Return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expenses Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.
Note: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return—the account values shown may not apply to your specific investment.
