Organization
The
Jaguar
Global
Property
Fund
(the
“Fund”)
is
a
non-diversified
portfolio
of
Forum
Funds
II
(the
“Trust”).
The
Trust
is
a
Delaware
statutory
trust
that
is
registered
as
an
open-end,
management
investment
company
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“Act”).
Under
its
Trust
Instrument,
the
Trust
is
authorized
to
issue
an
unlimited
number
of
the
Fund’s
shares
of
beneficial
interest
without
par
value.
The
Fund
commenced
operations
on
December
16,
2016.
The
Fund
currently
offers
one
class
of
shares:
Institutional
Shares.
The
Fund
seeks
to
generate
maximum
total
return
through
current
income
and
capital
appreciation
by
investing
in
real
estate-related
and
equity-linked
securities
internationally.
Prior
to
January
1,
2019,
the
Fund
was
named
NWS
Global
Property
Fund.
Summary
of
Significant
Accounting
Policies
The
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
under
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
(“ASC”)
Topic
946,
“Financial
Services
–
Investment
Companies.”
These
financial
statements
are
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(“GAAP”),
which
require
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities,
the
disclosure
of
contingent
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements,
and
the
reported
amounts
of
increases
and
decreases
in
net
assets
from
operations
during
the
fiscal
period.
Actual
amounts
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
following
summarizes
the
significant
accounting
policies
of
the
Fund:
Security
Valuation
–
Securities
are
valued
at
market
prices
using
the
last
quoted
trade
or
official
closing
price
from
the
principal
exchange
where
the
security
is
traded,
as
provided
by
independent
pricing
services
on
each
Fund
business
day.
In
the
absence
of
a
last
trade,
securities
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
last
bid
and
ask
price
provided
by
the
pricing
service.
Shares
of
non-exchange
traded
open-end
mutual
funds
are
valued
at
net
asset
value
(“NAV”).
Short-term
investments
that
mature
in
sixty
days
or
less
may
be
valued
at
amortized
cost.
The
Fund
values
its
investments
at
fair
value
pursuant
to
procedures
adopted
by
the
Trust’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
if
(1)
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
(2)
the
Adviser,
as
defined
in
Note
3,
believes
that
the
values
available
are
unreliable.
The
Trust’s
Valuation
Committee,
as
defined
in
the
Fund’s
registration
statement,
performs
certain
functions
as
they
relate
to
the
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Fund’s
valuation
procedures.
Under
these
procedures,
the
Valuation
Committee
convenes
on
a
regular
and
ad
hoc
basis
to
review
such
investments
and
considers
a
number
of
factors,
including
valuation
methodologies
and
significant
unobservable
inputs,
when
arriving
at
fair
value.
The
Valuation
Committee
may
work
with
the
Adviser
to
provide
valuation
inputs.
In
determining
fair
valuations,
inputs
may
include
market-based
analytics
that
may
consider
related
or
comparable
assets
or
liabilities,
recent
transactions,
market
multiples,
book
values
and
other
relevant
investment
information.
Adviser
inputs
may
include
an
income-based
approach
in
which
the
anticipated
future
cash
flows
of
the
investment
are
discounted
in
determining
fair
value.
Discounts
may
also
be
applied
based
on
the
nature
or
duration
of
any
restrictions
on
the
disposition
of
the
investments.
The
Valuation
Committee
performs
regular
reviews
of
valuation
methodologies,
key
inputs
and
assumptions,
disposition
analysis
and
market
activity.
Fair
valuation
is
based
on
subjective
factors
and,
as
a
result,
the
fair
value
price
of
an
investment
may
differ
from
the
security’s
market
price
and
may
not
be
the
price
at
which
the
asset
may
be
sold.
Fair
valuation
could
result
in
a
different
NAV
than
a
NAV
determined
by
using
market
quotes.
GAAP
has
a
three-tier
fair
value
hierarchy.
The
basis
of
the
tiers
is
dependent
upon
the
various
“inputs”
used
to
determine
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
These
inputs
are
summarized
in
the
three
broad
levels
listed
below:
Level
1
-
Quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
and
liabilities.
Level
2
-
Prices
determined
using
significant
other
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risk,
etc.).
Short-term
securities
with
maturities
of
sixty
days
or
less
are
valued
at
amortized
cost,
which
approximates
market
value,
and
are
categorized
as
Level
2
in
the
hierarchy.
Municipal
securities,
long-term
U.S.
government
obligations
and
corporate
debt
securities
are
valued
in
accordance
with
the
evaluated
price
supplied
by
a
pricing
service
and
generally
categorized
as
Level
2
in
the
hierarchy.
Other
securities
that
are
categorized
as
Level
2
in
the
hierarchy
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
warrants
that
do
not
trade
on
an
exchange,
securities
valued
at
the
mean
between
the
last
reported
bid
and

and

and
the

Level

-
Significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Fund’s
own
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair

of
investments).
The
aggregate
value
by

level,
as
of
August
31,
2020,
for
the
Fund’s
investments
is
included
in
the
Fund’s
Schedule
of
Investments.
Security
Transactions,
Investment
Income
and
Realized
Gain
and
Loss
–
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Foreign
dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
or
as
soon
as
possible
after
determining
the
existence
of
a
dividend
declaration
after
exercising
reasonable
due
diligence.
Income
and
capital
gains
on
some
foreign
securities
may
be
subject
to
foreign
withholding
taxes,
which
are
accrued
as
applicable.
Interest
income
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis.
Premium
is
amortized
to
the
next
call
date
above
par
and
discount
is
accreted
to
maturity
using
the
effective
interest
method.
Identified
cost
of
investments
sold
is
used
to
determine
the
gain
and
loss
for
both
financial
statement
and
federal
income
tax
purposes.
Foreign
Currency
Translations
–
Foreign
currency
amounts
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
as
follows:
(1)
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
rate
of
exchange
at
the
end
of
the
respective
period;
and
(2)
purchases
and
sales
of
securities
and
income
and
expenses
at
the
rate
of
exchange
prevailing
on
the
dates
of
such
transactions.
The
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
arising
from
changes
in
the
exchange
rates
and
the
portion
due
to
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
the
market
prices
of
securities
are
not
isolated.
Such
fluctuations
are
included
with
the
net
realized
and
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
investments.
Foreign
Currency
Transactions
–
The
Fund
may
enter
into
transactions
to
purchase
or
sell
foreign
currency
contracts
and
options
on
foreign
currency.
Forward
currency
contracts
are
agreements
to
exchange
one
currency
for
another
at
a
future
date
and
at
a
specified
price.
A
fund
may
use
forward
currency
contracts
to
facilitate
transactions
in
foreign
securities,
to
manage
a
fund’s
foreign
currency
exposure
and
to
protect
the
U.S.
dollar
value
of
its
underlying
portfolio
securities
against
the
effect
of
possible
adverse
movements
in
foreign
exchange
rates.
These
contracts
are
intrinsically
valued
daily
based
on
forward
rates,
and
a
fund’s
net
equity
therein,
representing
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
the
contracts
as
measured
by
the
difference
between
the
forward
foreign
exchange
rates
at
the
dates
of
entry
into
the
contracts
and
the
forward
rates
at
the
reporting
date,
is
recorded
as
a
component
of
NAV.
These
instruments
involve
market
risk,
credit
risk,
or
both
kinds
of
risks,
in
excess
of
the
amount
recognized
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Risks
arise
from
the
possible
inability
of
counterparties
to
meet
the
terms
of
their
contracts
and
from
movement
in
currency
and
securities
values
and
interest
rates.
Due
to
the
risks
associated
with
these
transactions,
a
fund
could
incur
losses
up
to
the
entire
contract
amount,
which
may
exceed
the
net
unrealized
value
included
in
its
NAV.
Distributions
to
Shareholders
–
The
Fund
declares
any
dividends
from
net
investment
income
and
pays
them
annually.
Any
net
capital
gains
and
foreign
currency
gains
realized
by
the
Fund
are
distributed
at
least
annually.
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Distributions
are
based
on
amounts
calculated
in
accordance
with
applicable
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
These
differences
are
due
primarily
to
differing
treatments
of
income
and
gain
on
various
investment
securities
held
by
the
Fund,
timing
differences
and
differing
characterizations
of
distributions
made
by
the
Fund.
Federal
Taxes
–
The
Fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
each
year
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
Subchapter
M
of
Chapter
1,
Subtitle
A,
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended
(“Code”),
and
to
distribute
all
of
its
taxable
income
to
shareholders.
In
addition,
by
distributing
in
each
calendar
year
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
and
capital
gains,
if
any,
the
Fund
will
not
be
subject
to
a
federal
excise
tax.
Therefore,
no
federal
income
or
excise
tax
provision
is
required.
The
Fund
will
file
a
U.S.
federal
income
and
excise
tax
return
as
required.
The
Fund’s
federal
income
tax
returns
are
subject
to
examination
by
the
Internal
Revenue
Service
for
a
period
of
three
fiscal
years
after
they
are
filed.
As
of
August
31,
2020,
there
are
no
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
financial
statement
recognition,
de-recognition
or
disclosure.
REITs
–
The
Fund
has
made
certain
investments
in
real
estate
investment
trusts
(“REITs”)
which
pay
dividends
to
their
shareholders
based
upon
funds
available
from
operations.
It
is
quite
common
for
these
dividends
to
exceed
the
REIT’s
taxable
earnings
and
profits
resulting
in
the
excess
portion
of
such
dividends
being
designated
as
a
return
of
capital.
The
Fund
may
include
the
gross
dividends
from
such
REITs
in
income
or
may
utilize
estimates
of
any
potential
REIT
dividend
reclassifications
in
the
Fund’s
annual
distributions
to
shareholders
and,
accordingly,
a
portion
of
the
Fund’s
distributions
may
be
designated
as
a
return
of
capital,
require
reclassification,
or
be
under
distributed
on
an
excise
basis
and
subject
to
excise
tax.

Income
and
Expense
Allocation
–
The
Trust
accounts
separately
for
the
assets,
liabilities
and
operations
of
each
of
its
investment
portfolios.
Expenses
that
are
directly
attributable
to
more
than
one
investment
portfolio
are
allocated
among
the
respective
investment
portfolios
in
an
equitable
manner.
Redemption
Fees
–
A
shareholder
who
redeems
or
exchanges
shares
within
90
days
of
purchase
will
incur
a
redemption
fee
of
1.50%
of
the
current
NAV
of
shares
redeemed
or
exchanged,
subject
to
certain
limitations.
The
fee
is
charged
for
the
benefit
of
the
remaining
shareholders
and
will
be
paid
to
the
Fund
to
help
offset
transaction
costs.
The
fee
is
accounted
for
as
an
addition
to
paid-in
capital.
The
Fund
reserves
the
right
to
modify
the
terms
of
or
terminate
the
fee
at
any
time.
There
are
limited
exceptions
to
the
imposition
of
the
redemption
fee.
Redemption
fees
incurred
for
the
Fund,
if
any,
are
reflected
on
the
Statements
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
Commitments
and
Contingencies
–
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Fund
enters
into
contracts
that
provide
general
indemnifications
by
the
Fund
to
the
counterparty
to
the
contract.
The
Fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
dependent
on
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Fund
and,
therefore,
cannot
be
estimated;
however,
based
on
experience,
the
risk
of
loss
from
such
claims
is
considered
remote.
The
Fund
has
determined
that
none
of
these
arrangements
requires
disclosure
on
the
Fund’s
balance
sheet.

Shareholder
Expense
Example
As
a
shareholder
of
the
Fund,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
including
redemption
fees,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
Fund
expenses.
This
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund,
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period
from
March
1,
2020
through

account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
in
this
line,
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
in
the
first
line
under
the
heading
entitled
“Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
the
period.
Hypothetical
Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
–
The
second
line
of
the
table
below
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
the
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
other
funds.
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transactional
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees.
Therefore,
the
second
line
of
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
In
addition,
if
these
transactional
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.
