PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business. Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York on August 25, 1999 to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures, option, swap and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, indices, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, lumber, metals and softs. The commodity interests that are indirectly traded by the Partnership through its investment in the Funds (defined below) are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The General Partner (as defined below) may also determine to invest up to all of the Partnership’s assets (directly or indirectly through its investment in the Funds) in United States (“U.S.”) Treasury bills and/or money market mutual funds, including money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates. A total of 190,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) have been offered to the public.

A Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File no. 333-87663) relating to the public offering of 150,000 Redeemable Units became effective on January 31, 2000. Between January 31, 2000 (commencement of offering period) and May 30, 2000, 16,045 Redeemable Units were sold at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit. Proceeds of the offering were held in an escrow account and were transferred, along with the General Partner’s contribution of $162,000, to the Partnership’s trading account on June 1, 2000 when the Partnership commenced trading. A second Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File no. 333-101132) relating to the public offering of 190,000 Redeemable Units (including the 150,000 Redeemable Units that had previously been registered) became effective on November 25, 2002. As of that date, 151,740.3512 Redeemable Units had been sold. The Partnership no longer offers Redeemable Units for sale. Redemptions of Redeemable Units for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 are reported in the Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. As of January 1, 2017, the General Partner became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Domestic Holdings, Inc. (“MSD Holdings”). MSD Holdings is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley is a publicly held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Morgan Stanley is engaged in various financial services and other businesses. Prior to January 1, 2017, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC (“MSSB Holdings”). Prior to June 28, 2013, Morgan Stanley indirectly owned a majority equity interest in MSSB Holdings and Citigroup Inc. indirectly owned a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings.

During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Partnership’s/Funds’ commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant. During prior periods included in this report, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”) also served as a commodity broker. The Partnership/Funds also deposit a portion of their cash in a non-trading account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

As of December 31, 2016, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by Aspect Capital Limited (“Aspect”), Graham Capital Management, L.P. (“Graham”), and PGR Capital LLP (“PGR”) (each, an “Advisor”, and collectively, the “Advisors”), each of which is a registered commodity trading advisor. References herein to “Advisors” may also include, as relevant, SandRidge Capital L.P. (“SandRidge”), Waypoint Capital Management LLC (“Waypoint”) and Eckhardt Trading Company (“Eckhardt”). A description of the trading activities and focus of the Advisors is included under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The Advisors are not affiliated with one another, the General Partner, MS&Co. or CGM, and are not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership.

The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of Partnership interest owned by each, except that no limited partner shall be liable for obligations of the Partnership in excess of its capital contribution and profit, if any, net of distributions or redemptions and losses, if any.

The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000. The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first of the following to occur: December 31, 2019; the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of any business day; or under certain circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

On March 1, 2005, the assets allocated to Aspect for trading were invested in CMF Aspect Master Fund L.P. (“Aspect Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 43,434.9465 units of Aspect Master with cash equal to $40,490,895, and a contribution of open commodity futures and forward contracts with a fair value of $2,944,052. Aspect Master permits accounts managed by Aspect using its Diversified Program, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of Aspect Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by Aspect, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of Aspect Master. The General Partner and Aspect believe that trading through this structure should promote efficiency and economy in the trading process.

On April 1, 2006, the assets allocated to Graham for trading were invested in CMF Graham Capital Master Fund L.P. (“Graham Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 41,952.2380 units of Graham Master with cash equal to $41,952,238. Graham Master permits accounts managed by Graham using its K4D — 15V program, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of Graham Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by Graham, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of Graham Master. The General Partner and Graham believe that trading through this structure should promote efficiency and economy in the trading process.

On April 1, 2007, the assets allocated to SandRidge for trading were invested in CMF SandRidge Master Fund L.P. (“SandRidge Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 7,659.0734 units of SandRidge Master with cash equal to $9,635,703. The Partnership fully redeemed its investment in SandRidge Master on January 31, 2013 for cash equal to $4,938,215.

On March 1, 2010, the assets allocated to Waypoint for trading were invested in Waypoint Master Fund L.P. (“Waypoint Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 5,975.7506 units of Waypoint Master with cash equal to $5,975,751. The Partnership fully redeemed its investment in Waypoint Master on November 30, 2013 for cash equal to $3,566,512.

On November 1, 2010, the assets allocated to PGR for trading were invested in PGR Master Fund L.P. (“PGR Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of Delaware. The Partnership invested in PGR Master with cash equal to $5,000,000. PGR Master permits accounts managed by PGR using its Mayfair Program, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of PGR Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by PGR, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of PGR Master. The General Partner and PGR believe that trading through this structure should promote efficiency and economy in the trading process.

The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to any of the trading programs discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Aspect Master’s, Graham Master’s and PGR Master’s (collectively, the “Funds”) trading of futures, forward, swap and option contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on U.S. and foreign commodity exchanges. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Funds engaged in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with MS&Co. During a prior period included in this report, the Funds also engaged in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with CGM. References herein to the “Funds” may also include, as relevant, reference to SandRidge Master, Waypoint Master and Eckhardt Master.

Generally, a limited partner in the Funds withdraws all or part of its capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from the Funds as of the end of any month (the “Redemption Date”) after a request has been made to the General Partner at least three days in advance of the Redemption Date. Such withdrawals are classified as a liability when the limited partner elects to redeem and informs the Funds. However, a limited partner may request a withdrawal as of the end of any day if such request is received by the General Partner at least three days in advance of the proposed withdrawal day.

Management fees, General Partner fees, ongoing selling agent fees and incentive fees are charged at the Partnership level. All clearing fees are borne by the Funds and allocated to the Funds’ limited partners, including the Partnership. Professional fees are borne by the Funds and allocated to the Partnership, and also charged directly at the Partnership level. All other fees are charged at the Partnership level.

For the period January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016, the approximate average market sector distribution for the Partnership was as follows:

LOGO

At December 31, 2016, the Partnership owned approximately 13.8% of Aspect Master, 20.2% of Graham Master and 35.3% of PGR Master. At December 31, 2015, the Partnership owned approximately 13.5% of Aspect Master, 19.9% of Graham Master and 41.9% of PGR Master. It is the intention of the Partnership to continue to invest in the Funds except for SandRidge Master, Waypoint Master and Eckhardt Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Funds. Expenses to the investors as a result of the investment in the Funds are approximately the same as they would be if the Partnership traded directly and the redemption rights are not affected.

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership including, among other factors (i) selecting, appointing and terminating the Partnership’s commodity trading advisors and (ii) monitoring the activities of the commodity trading advisors. Effective October 1, 2014, the Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly fee (“General Partner fee”) in return for its services equal to 1/12th of 0.9% (0.9% per year) of the month-end net assets of the Partnership. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating the General Partner fee are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, entered into management agreements (each, a “Management Agreement”) with Aspect, Graham and PGR, each of which is a registered commodity trading advisor. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, had also entered into Management Agreements with SandRidge, Waypoint and Eckhardt. SandRidge, Waypoint and Eckhardt were each terminated as a commodity trading advisor for the Partnership as of January 15, 2013, November 30, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Partnership will pay Graham and Aspect a monthly management fee equal to 1/12th of 1.75% (1.75% per year) and 1/12th of 1.25% (1.25% per year), respectively, of month-end net assets allocated to the respected Advisor. The Partnership pays PGR, and had paid Eckhardt, a monthly management fee equal to 1/12th of 1% (1% per year) of month-end net assets allocated to the Advisor. Prior to July 1, 2014, the Partnership paid Eckhardt 1/12th of 2% (2% per year) of month-end net assets allocated to Eckhardt Master. Prior to April 1, 2014, the Partnership paid Graham 1/12th of 2% (2% per year) of month-end net assets allocated to Graham Master. Prior to its termination on January 15, 2013, SandRidge received a monthly management fee equal to 2% per year of month-end net assets allocated to SandRidge Master. Prior to its termination on November 30, 2013, Waypoint received a monthly management fee equal to 2% per year of month-end net assets allocated to Waypoint Master. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating management fees, are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The Management Agreements generally continue in effect until June 30 of each year and are renewable by the General Partner for additional one-year periods upon 30 days prior notice to an Advisor. Each Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

In addition, the Partnership is obligated to pay each Advisor an incentive fee, payable annually, equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in each Management Agreement, earned by each Advisor for the Partnership. To the extent an Advisor incurs a loss for the Partnership, the Advisor will not be paid an incentive fee until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred by the Advisor and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership.

Prior to and during part of the third quarter of 2013, the Partnership was party to a customer agreement with CGM (the “CGM Customer Agreement”). During the third quarter of 2013, the Partnership entered into a customer agreement with MS&Co. (the “MS&Co. Customer Agreement”) and during the fourth quarter of 2013, the Partnership entered into a selling agent agreement with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, doing business as Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (“Morgan Stanley Wealth Management”) (as amended, the “Selling Agreement”). The Partnership has terminated the CGM Customer Agreement.

Under the CGM Customer Agreement, the Partnership paid CGM a monthly brokerage fee equal to 5.4% per year of month-end net assets, in lieu of brokerage fees on a per trade basis. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating brokerage fees, were net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s brokerage fees, incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The Partnership paid for exchange, service, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association (“NFA”) fees (collectively the “CGM clearing fees”) through its investments in the Funds. CGM clearing fees were allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of each Fund. During the term of the CGM Customer Agreement, all of the Partnership’s assets that were not held in the Funds’ accounts at CGM were deposited in the Partnership’s account at CGM. The Partnership’s cash was deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. CGM paid the Partnership interest on its allocable share of 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in each Fund’s brokerage account at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing 30 days from the date on which such weekly rate is determined. The CGM Customer Agreement gave the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures, exchange-cleared swaps and forward contracts (the Funds were also parties to customer agreements with MS&Co., which gave the Funds the same right).

Under the MS&Co. Customer Agreement and the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement, the Partnership, through its investment in the Funds, pays MS&Co. (or will reimburse MS&Co., if previously paid) its allocable share of all trading fees for the clearing and, where applicable, execution of transactions as well as exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and NFA fees (collectively, “MS&Co. clearing fees” and together with the CGM clearing fees, the “clearing fees”). MS&Co. clearing fees are allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of each Fund. MS&Co. clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. All of the Partnership’s assets not held in the Funds’ accounts at MS&Co. are deposited in the Partnership’s account at MS&Co. or in a non-trading account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Partnership’s cash deposited with MS&Co. is held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by CFTC regulations. MS&Co. has agreed to pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of a Fund’s) average daily equity maintained in cash during each month at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4- week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. The MS&Co. Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

Graham Master and Aspect Master have entered into a foreign exchange brokerage account agreement with MS&Co. Under the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement, the Partnership pays trading fees for the clearing and where applicable, execution of foreign exchange transactions, as well as applicable exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and NFA fees (collectively, the “foreign exchange clearing fees”) through its investments in the Funds.

Under the Selling Agreement, the Partnership pays Morgan Stanley Wealth Management a monthly ongoing selling agent fee. Prior to April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was paid at a rate equal to 5.4% per year of adjusted month-end net assets. Effective April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was reduced from an annual rate of 5.4% to an annual rate of 2.9%. Effective October 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was further reduced from an annual rate of 2.9% to an annual rate of 2.0%. The ongoing selling agent fee received by Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is shared with the properly registered/exempted financial advisers of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management who sell Redeemable Units in the Partnership. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating the ongoing selling agent fees are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s clearing fees, incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

In July 2015, the General Partner delegated certain administrative functions to SS&C Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation, currently doing business as SS&C GlobeOp (the “Administrator”). Pursuant to a master services agreement, the Administrator furnishes certain administrative, accounting, regulatory reporting, tax and other services as agreed from time to time. In addition, the Administrator maintains certain books and records of the Partnership. The cost of retaining the Administrator is allocated among the pools operated by the General Partner, including the Partnership.

(b) Financial Information about Segments. The Partnership’s business consists of only one segment, speculative trading of commodity interests. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. The Partnership’s net income (loss) from operations for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012 is set forth under “Item 6. Selected Financial Data”. The Partnership’s capital as of December 31, 2016, was $19,849,696.

(i) through (xii) — Not applicable.

(xiii) — The Partnership has no employees.

(d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas. The Partnership does not engage in the sales of goods or services or own any long-lived assets and therefore this item is not applicable.

(e) Available Information. The Partnership does not have an internet address. The Partnership will provide paper copies of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to these reports free of charge upon request.

(f) Reports to Security Holders. Not applicable.

(g) Enforceability of Civil Liabilities Against Foreign Persons. Not applicable.

(h) Smaller Reporting Companies. Not applicable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As a result of leverage, small changes in the price of the Partnership’s positions may result in major losses.

The trading of commodity interests is speculative, volatile and involves a high degree of leverage. A small change in the market price of a commodity interest contract can produce major losses for the Partnership, through its investment in the Funds. Market prices can be influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events, weather and climate conditions, insects and plant disease, purchases and sales by foreign countries and changing interest rates.

An investor may lose all of its investment.

Due to the speculative nature of trading commodity interests, an investor could lose all of its investment in the Partnership.

The Partnership will pay substantial fees and expenses regardless of profitability.

Regardless of its trading performance, the Partnership will incur fees and expenses, including trading and transaction fees, ongoing selling agent fees, clearing fees, General Partner fees and management fees. Substantial incentive fees may be paid to one or more of the Advisors even if the Partnership experiences a net loss for the full year.

An investor’s ability to redeem or transfer Redeemable Units is limited.

An investor’s ability to redeem Redeemable Units is limited and no market exists for the Redeemable Units.

Conflicts of interest exist.

The Partnership is subject to numerous conflicts of interest including those that arise from the facts that:

The General Partner and the Partnership’s/Funds’ commodity broker are affiliates;

Each of the Advisor(s), the Partnership’s/Funds’ commodity broker and their principals and affiliates may trade commodity interests for their own accounts;

An investor’s financial advisor will receive ongoing compensation for providing services to the investor’s account; and

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may purchase money market mutual fund shares from mutual funds affiliated and/or unaffiliated with the General Partner.

Investing in Redeemable Units might not provide the desired diversification of an investor’s overall portfolio.

One of the Partnership’s objectives is to add an element of diversification to a traditional stock and bond portfolio, but any benefit of portfolio diversification is dependent upon the Partnership, through its investment in the Funds, achieving positive returns and such returns being independent of stock and bond market returns.

Past performance is no assurance of future results.

The Advisors’ trading strategies may not perform as they have performed in the past. The Advisors have from time to time incurred substantial losses in trading on behalf of clients.

An investor’s tax liability may exceed cash distributions.

Investors are taxed on their share of the Partnership’s income even though the Partnership does not intend to make any distributions.

The General Partner may allocate the Partnership’s assets to undisclosed advisors.

The General Partner at any time may select and allocate the Partnership’s assets to undisclosed advisors. Investors may not be advised of such changes in advance. Investors must rely on the ability of the General Partner to select advisors and allocate assets among them.

Regulatory changes could restrict the Partnership’s operations and increase its operational costs.

Regulatory changes could adversely affect the Partnership by restricting its markets or activities, limiting its trading and/or increasing the costs or taxes to which investors are subject. Pursuant to the mandate of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law on July 21, 2010, the CFTC and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) have promulgated rules to regulate swap dealers and to mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements and continue to promulgate rules regarding capital and margin requirements, to require that certain swaps be traded on an exchange or a swap execution facility, and to require that derivatives (such as those traded by the Partnership) be moved into central clearinghouses. The CFTC and the prudential regulators that oversee swap dealers have adopted rules regarding margin requirements for certain derivatives. In addition, the CFTC and such prudential regulators have proposed or adopted respectively, rules regarding capital requirements for swap dealers. These rules may negatively impact the manner in which swap contracts are traded and/or settled, increase the costs of such trades, and limit trading by speculators (such as the Partnership) in futures and over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets.

Speculative position and trading limits may reduce profitability.

The CFTC and U.S. commodity exchanges have established “speculative position limits” on the maximum net long or net short positions which any person or a group of persons may hold or control in particular futures, options on futures and swaps that perform a significant price discovery function. Most commodity exchanges also limit the amount of fluctuation in the commodity futures contract prices on a single trading day. The Advisors believe that established speculative position and trading limits will not materially adversely affect trading for the Partnership. The trading instructions of an Advisor, however, may have to be modified, and positions held by the Partnership/Funds may have to be liquidated in order to avoid exceeding these limits. Such modification or liquidation could adversely affect the operations and profitability of the Partnership by increasing transaction costs to liquidate positions and limiting potential profits on the liquidated position.

In December 2016, the CFTC re-proposed new rules regarding speculative position limits, replacing a prior proposal from November 2013. These rules, if adopted in substantially the same form, will impose position limits on certain futures and option contracts and physical commodity swaps that are “economically equivalent” to such contracts. If enacted, these rules could have an adverse effect on an Advisor’s trading for the Partnership/Funds.

The General Partner, the Partnership and its service providers and their respective operations are potentially vulnerable to cyber-security attacks or incidents.

Like other business enterprises, the use of the internet and other electronic media and technology exposes the General Partner, the Partnership and its service providers, and their respective operations, to potential risks from cyber-security attacks or incidents (collectively, “cyber events”). Cyber events may include, for example, unauthorized access to systems, networks or devices, infection from computer viruses or other malicious software code, mishandling or misuse of information and attacks which shut down, disable, slow or otherwise disrupt operations, business processes or website access or functionality. In addition to intentional cyber events, unintentional cyber events can occur. Unintentional cyber events may include, for example, the inadvertent release of confidential information, the mishandling or misuse of information and/or technological limitations or hardware failures (in the markets or otherwise) that constrain the Partnership’s and/or the Funds’ ability to gather, process and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption.

Any cyber event could adversely affect the Partnership’s business, financial condition or results of operations and cause the Partnership to incur financial loss and expense, as well as face exposure to regulatory penalties or legal claims, reputational damage and additional costs associated with corrective measures. A cyber-security breach could also jeopardize a limited partner’s personal, confidential, proprietary or other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, the General Partner’s or a service provider’s computer systems. A cyber event may cause the Partnership or its service providers to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption, lose operational capacity (such as, for example, the loss of the ability to process transactions, calculate the Partnership’s net asset value, or allow investors to transact business) and/or fail to comply with applicable privacy and other laws. Among other potentially harmful effects, cyber events also may result in theft, unauthorized monitoring and failures in the physical infrastructure or operating systems that support the Partnership or its service providers.

The nature of malicious cyber-attacks is becoming increasingly sophisticated and neither the General Partner nor the Partnership can control the cyber systems and cyber-security systems of the Advisors or other third-party service providers.

Item 2. Properties.

The Partnership does not own or lease any properties. The General Partner operates out of facilities provided by Morgan Stanley and/or one of its subsidiaries.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

This section describes the major pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which MS&Co. or its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their property is subject. There are no material legal proceedings pending against the Partnership or the General Partner.

On June 1, 2011, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. As a result of that conversion, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated is now named Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (“MS&Co.”).

MS&Co. is a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, a Delaware holding company. Morgan Stanley files periodic reports with the SEC as required by the Exchange Act, which include current descriptions of material litigation and material proceedings and investigations, if any, by governmental and/or regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations concerning Morgan Stanley and its subsidiaries, including MS&Co. As a consolidated subsidiary of Morgan Stanley, MS&Co. does not file its own periodic reports with the SEC that contain descriptions of material litigation, proceedings and investigations. As a result, please refer to the “Legal Proceedings” section of Morgan Stanley’s SEC 10-K filings for 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012. In addition, MS&Co. annually prepares an Audited, Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition (“Audited Financial Statement”) that is publicly available on Morgan Stanley’s website at www.morganstanley.com. Please refer to the Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies – Legal section of MS&Co.’s 2016 Audited Financial Statement.

In addition to the matters described in those filings, in the normal course of business, each of Morgan Stanley and MS&Co. has been named, from time to time, as a defendant in various legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions, and other litigation, arising in connection with its activities as a global diversified financial services institution. Certain of the legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. Each of Morgan Stanley and MS&Co. is also involved, from time to time, in investigations and proceedings by governmental and/or regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations, certain of which may result in adverse judgments, fines or penalties. The number of these investigations and proceedings has increased in recent years with regard to many financial services institutions, including Morgan Stanley and MS&Co.

MS&Co. is a Delaware limited liability company with its main business office located at 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036. Among other registrations and memberships, MS&Co. is registered as a futures commission merchant and is a member of the National Futures Association.

Regulatory and Governmental Matters

MS&Co. has received subpoenas and requests for information from certain federal and state regulatory and governmental entities, including among others various members of the RMBS Working Group of the Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force, such as the United States Department of Justice, Civil Division and several state Attorney General’s Offices, concerning the origination, financing, purchase, securitization and servicing of subprime and non-subprime residential mortgages and related matters such as residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), structured investment vehicles (“SIVs”) and credit default swaps backed by or referencing mortgage pass-through certificates. These matters, some of which are in advanced stages, include, but are not limited to, investigations related to MS&Co.’s due diligence on the loans that it purchased for securitization, MS&Co.’s communications with ratings agencies, MS&Co.’s disclosures to investors, and MS&Co.’s handling of servicing and foreclosure related issues.

On February 25, 2015, MS&Co. reached an agreement in principle with the United States Department of Justice, Civil Division and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California, Civil Division (collectively, the “Civil Division”) to pay $2.6 billion to resolve certain claims that the Civil Division indicated it intended to bring against MS&Co. That settlement was finalized on February 10, 2016.

In October 2014, the Illinois Attorney General’s Office (“ILAG”) sent a letter to MS&Co. alleging that MS&Co. knowingly made misrepresentations related to RMBS purchased by certain pension funds affiliated with the State of Illinois and demanding that MS&Co. pay ILAG approximately $88 million. MS&Co. and ILAG reached an agreement to resolve the matter on February 10, 2016.

On January 13, 2015, the New York Attorney General’s Office (“NYAG”), which is also a member of the RMBS Working Group, indicated that it intended to file a lawsuit related to approximately 30 subprime securitizations sponsored by MS&Co. NYAG indicated that the lawsuit would allege that MS&Co. misrepresented or omitted material information related to the due diligence, underwriting and valuation of the loans in the securitizations and the properties securing them and indicated that its lawsuit would be brought under the Martin Act. MS&Co. and NYAG reached an agreement to resolve the matter on February 10, 2016.

On June 5, 2012, MS&Co. consented to and became the subject of an Order Instituting Proceedings Pursuant to Sections 6(c) and 6(d) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, Making Findings and Imposing Remedial Sanctions by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) to resolve allegations related to the failure of a salesperson to comply with exchange rules that prohibit off-exchange futures transactions unless there is an Exchange for Related Position (“EFRP”). Specifically, the CFTC found that from April 2008 through October 2009, MS&Co. violated Section 4c(a) of the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC Regulation 1.38 by executing, processing and reporting numerous off-exchange futures trades to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”) and Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”) as EFRPs in violation of CME and CBOT rules because those trades lacked the corresponding and related cash, OTC swap, OTC option, or other OTC derivative position. In addition, the CFTC found that MS&Co. violated CFTC Regulation 166.3 by failing to supervise the handling of the trades at issue and failing to have adequate policies and procedures designed to detect and deter the violations of the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC Regulations. Without admitting or denying the underlying allegations and without adjudication of any issue of law or fact, MS&Co. accepted and consented to entry of findings and the imposition of a cease and desist order, a fine of $5,000,000, and undertakings related to public statements, cooperation and payment of the fine. MS&Co. entered into corresponding and related settlements with the CME and CBOT in which the CME found that MS&Co. violated CME Rules 432.Q and 538 and fined MS&Co. $750,000 and CBOT found that MS&Co. violated CBOT Rules 432.Q and 538 and fined MS&Co. $1,000,000.

On July 23, 2014, the SEC approved a settlement by MS&Co. and certain affiliates to resolve an investigation related to certain subprime RMBS transactions sponsored and underwritten by those entities in 2007. Pursuant to the settlement, MS&Co. and certain affiliates were charged with violating Sections 17(a)(2) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, agreed to pay disgorgement and penalties in an amount of $275 million and neither admitted nor denied the SEC’s findings.

On April 21, 2015, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated (“CBOE”) and the CBOE Futures Exchange, LLC (“CFE”) filed statements of charges against MS&Co. in connection with trading by one of MS&Co.’s former traders of EEM options contracts that allegedly disrupted the final settlement price of the November 2012 VXEM futures. CBOE alleged that MS&Co. violated CBOE Rules 4.1, 4.2 and 4.7, Sections 9(a) and 10(b) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. CFE alleged that MS&Co. violated CFE Rules 608, 609 and 620. The matters were resolved on June 28, 2016 without any findings of fraud.

On June 18, 2015, MS&Co. entered into a settlement with the SEC and paid a fine of $500,000 as part of the Municipalities Continuing Disclosure Cooperation Initiative to resolve allegations that MS&Co. failed to form a reasonable basis through adequate due diligence for believing the truthfulness of the assertions by issuers and/or obligors regarding their compliance with previous continuing disclosure undertakings pursuant to Rule 15c2-12 under the Exchange Act in connection with offerings in which MS&Co. acted as senior or sole underwriter.

On August 6, 2015, MS&Co. consented to and became the subject of an order by the CFTC to resolve allegations that MS&Co. violated CFTC Regulation 22.9(a) by failing to hold sufficient U.S. dollars in cleared swap segregated accounts in the United States to meet all U.S. dollar obligations to cleared swaps customers. Specifically, the CFTC found that while MS&Co. at all times held sufficient funds in segregation to cover its obligations to its customers, on certain days during 2013 and 2014, it held currencies, such as euros, instead of U.S. dollars, to meet its U.S. dollar obligations. In addition, the CFTC found that MS&Co. violated CFTC Regulation 166.3 by failing to have in place adequate procedures to ensure that it complied with CFTC Regulation 22.9(a). Without admitting or denying the findings or conclusions and without adjudication of any issue of law or fact, MS&Co. accepted and consented to the entry of findings, the imposition of a cease and desist order, a civil monetary penalty of $300,000, and undertakings related to public statements, cooperation, and payment of the monetary penalty.

On December 20, 2016, MS&Co. consented to and became the subject of an order by the SEC in connection with allegations that MS&Co. willfully violated Sections 15(c)(3) and 17(a)(1) of the Exchange Act and Rules 15c3-3(e), 17a-5(a), and 17a-5(d) thereunder, by inaccurately calculating its Reserve Account requirement under Rule 15c3-3 by including margin loans to an affiliate in its calculations, which resulted in making inaccurate records and submitting inaccurate reports to the SEC. Without admitting or denying the underlying allegations and without adjudication of any issue of law or fact, MS&Co. consented to a cease and desist order, a censure, and a civil monetary penalty of $7,500,000.

Civil Litigation

On July 15, 2010, China Development Industrial Bank (“CDIB”) filed a complaint against MS&Co., styled China Development Industrial Bank v. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated et al., which is pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County (“Supreme Court of NY”). The complaint relates to a $275 million credit default swap referencing the super senior portion of the STACK 2006-1 CDO. The complaint asserts claims for common law fraud, fraudulent inducement and fraudulent concealment and alleges that MS&Co. misrepresented the risks of the STACK 2006-1 CDO to CDIB, and that MS&Co. knew that the assets backing the CDO were of poor quality when it entered into the credit default swap with CDIB. The complaint seeks compensatory damages related to the approximately $228 million that CDIB alleges it has already lost under the credit default swap, rescission of CDIB’s obligation to pay an additional $12 million, punitive damages, equitable relief, fees and costs. On February 28, 2011, the court denied MS&Co.’s motion to dismiss the complaint. Based on currently available information, MS&Co. believes it could incur a loss of up to approximately $240 million plus pre- and post-judgment interest, fees and costs.

On October 15, 2010, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago filed a complaint against MS&Co. and other defendants in the Circuit Court of the State of Illinois, styled Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago v. Bank of America Funding Corporation et al.

The total amount of certificates allegedly sold to plaintiff by MS&Co. at issue in the action was approximately $203 million. The complaint seeks, among other things, to rescind the plaintiff’s purchase of such certificates. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the corrected amended complaint on May 27, 2011, which was denied on September 19, 2012. On December 13, 2013, the court entered an order dismissing all claims related to one of the securitizations at issue.

At December 25, 2016, the current unpaid balance of the mortgage pass-through certificates at issue in this action was approximately $46 million, and the certificates had not yet incurred actual losses.

MS&Co. may be entitled to be indemnified for some of these losses and to an offset for interest received by the plaintiff prior to a judgment.

The lawsuit alleged that MS&Co. and the other defendants knowingly made misrepresentations and omissions related to the loans backing RMBS purchased by the Virginia Retirement System. The complaint asserted claims under the Virginia Fraud Against Taxpayers Act, as well as common law claims of actual and constructive fraud, and sought, among other things, treble damages and civil penalties. On January 6, 2016, the parties reached an agreement to settle the litigation. An order dismissing the action with prejudice was entered on January 28, 2016.

Additional lawsuits containing claims similar to those described above may be filed in the future. In the course of its business, MS&Co., as a major futures commission merchant, is party to various civil actions, claims and routine regulatory investigations and proceedings that the General Partner believes do not have a material effect on the business of MS&Co. MS&Co. may establish reserves from time to time in connections with such actions.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The Partnership, through its investment in the Funds, aims to achieve substantial capital appreciation through speculative trading, directly or indirectly in U.S. and international markets for currencies, interest rates, stock indices, agricultural and energy products and precious and base metals. The Partnership/Funds may employ futures, options on futures and forward contracts in those markets.

The General Partner manages all business of the Partnership/Funds. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to the Advisors. The General Partner engages a team of approximately 30 professionals whose primary emphasis is attempting to maintain quality control among the advisors to the funds operated or managed by the General Partner. A full-time staff of due diligence professionals use proprietary technology and on-site evaluations to monitor new and existing futures money managers. The accounting and operations staff provides processing of subscriptions and redemptions and reporting to limited partners and regulatory authorities. The General Partner also includes staff involved in marketing and sales support. In allocating the assets of the Partnership among the Advisors, the General Partner considers, among other factors, each Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets among the Advisors and may allocate assets to additional advisors at any time.

Responsibilities of the General Partner include:

•

due diligence examinations of the Advisors;

•

selection, appointment and termination of the Advisors;

•

negotiation of the Management Agreements; and

•

monitoring the activity of the Advisors.

In addition, the General Partner prepares, or assists the Administrator in preparing, the books and records and provides, or assists the Administrator in providing, the administrative and compliance services that are required by law or regulation, from time to time, in connection with the operation of the Partnership/Funds.

While the Partnership and the Funds have the right to seek lower commission rates and fees from other commodity brokers at any time, the General Partner believes that the customer agreements and other arrangements with the commodity broker are fair, reasonable, and competitive.

As of December 31, 2016, the programs traded by each Advisor on behalf of the Partnership were: Aspect — Diversified Program, Graham — K4D — 15V Program, and PGR — Mayfair Program.

As of December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2016, the Partnership’s assets were allocated among the Advisors in the following approximate percentages:


Advisor	December 31, 2016			September 30, 2016
Aspect Capital Limited	$	7,393,416	37 %	$	7,805,607	34 %
Graham Capital Management L.P.	$	6,641,240	34 %	$	7,953,699	35 %
PGR Capital LLP	$	5,815,040	29 %	$	7,225,682	31 %

Aspect Capital Limited.

Aspect trades the Aspect Diversified Program (the “Diversified Program”) on behalf of the Partnership, through its investment in Aspect Master. The Diversified Program is a proprietary, systematic global futures trading program. Its goal is the generation of significant medium-term capital growth independent of stock and bond market returns within a rigorous risk management framework.

The Diversified Program applies a systematic and broadly diversified global investment system, which deploys multiple investment strategies that, primarily through the use of derivatives, seek to identify and exploit directional moves in the market behavior of a broad range of financial instruments and other assets including (but not limited to) currencies, interest rates, indices, debt securities (including bonds) and commodities (including energy, metal and agricultural commodities). By maintaining comparatively small exposure to any individual market and maintaining positions in a variety of contracts, Aspect aims to achieve long-term diversification. Generally, the Diversified Program maintains positions in the majority of traded markets. Market concentration varies according to the strength of signals, volatility and liquidity, amongst other factors. The emphasis is upon structuring a genuinely diversified set of market risk allocations that is designed to maximize the probability of returns wherever profit opportunities appear. Market exposures are monitored daily and the level of exposure of the Diversified Program in each market is quantifiable at all times and changes in accordance with market volatility and liquidity.

The Diversified Program employs an automated system to collect, process and analyze market data (including current and historical price data) and identify and exploit directional moves in market behavior. The Diversified Program trades across a variety of frequencies to exploit trends over a range of timescales. Positions are taken according to the aggregate signal and are adjusted to attempt to control risk.

Graham Capital Management, L.P.

Graham trades the Partnership’s assets allocated to it in accordance with the K4D-15V Program, a systematic, proprietary trading program. Graham trades actively in both U.S. and foreign markets, primarily in futures contracts, forward contracts, spot contracts and associated derivative instruments such as options and swaps through its investment in Graham Master. Graham engages in exchange for physical transactions, which involve the exchange of a futures position for the underlying physical commodity without making an open competitive trade on an exchange. Instruments and contracts not traded on an organized exchange may be entered with banks, brokerage firms or other financial counterparties.

The K4D-15V Program utilizes multiple computerized trading models and offers broad diversification in both financial and non-financial markets, trading in approximately 65-80 global markets. It is intended to generate significant returns over time with an acceptable degree of risk and volatility. The computer models on a daily basis analyze the recent price action, the relative strength and the risk characteristics of each market and compare statistically the quantitative results of this data to years of historical data on each market.

In addition to the trend system or systems at its base, the K4D-15V quantitative investment program has added numerous other trading strategies developed by Graham’s research department. Graham believes strongly in the importance of research and development activity and particularly in the development of new trading strategies and portfolio management techniques. Trading strategies developed by Graham research and added to Graham investment programs include not only trend systems but also other styles of systems, with varying time horizons. Such systems generally are based on computerized mathematical models and can rely both on technical and fundamental information as the basis for their trading decisions. Graham intends to add new trading strategies to its investment programs as well as to modify the systems currently in place in such programs in its ongoing efforts to keep pace with changing market conditions, and it anticipates that the constellation of trading strategies comprising each investment program will continue to grow and evolve over time. The decision to add or subtract systems or strategies from any investment program shall be at the sole discretion of Graham.

PGR Capital LLP

PGR’s Mayfair Program, which trades at 1.5 times leverage, is a proprietary, systematic trading system which seeks to profit over the medium term by exploiting inefficiencies in futures and forward markets across a broad range of asset classes and geographic regions. Proprietary models developed by the founding partners are implemented in an in-house trading system which systematically processes real-time data and executes trades automatically on electronic futures exchanges and foreign exchange trading platforms.

PGR’s investment strategies have a strong mathematical and statistical basis and exploit established signal processing and econometric techniques. Research is an ongoing part of PGR’s program and strategies may be extended to exploit new inefficiencies over time, utilizing market price and volume data or fundamental data. Current strategies are continuously being developed and may change over the life of the investment. The strategy is primarily momentum-based. Adaptive signal processing techniques are used to forecast both market direction and risk. The estimates of the direction and strength of a market’s price trend are combined with the estimate of its risk to calculate a position which optimizes the risk/return profile for that market.

The strategies are primarily directional in nature meaning they identify and take advantage of both upward and downward price momentum. The source of these trends may be sound economic considerations, asymmetric information or behavioral patterns of market participants. Persistent trends can be identified from these factors in all markets across all sectors with varying strengths and durations. PGR’s strategies have been designed to identify the direction and strength of any trend over multiple timeframes and have the ability to adapt to the prevailing market with duration between a few days and a few months and position the fund to take advantage of it. PGR’s investment strategy employs sophisticated, robust and already proven computerized systems to enable the entire trading process to be automated. The system monitors live market data from real-time feeds and continuously updates the desired position for each market. Rigorous risk management is central to PGR’s systems and operations. Risk management is fully integrated and systematic at all levels of the system. It takes account of changes intra and inter-market, to ensure that volatility and drawdowns remain under control as markets both react and evolve. The automation of trade execution and reconciliation avoids the possibility of human errors in relation to these processes while further processes continuously monitor and assess risk throughout all stages of the investment process. PGR’s ability to adjust positions and gearing according to the prevailing levels of market and portfolio risk means that it can rapidly control the risk of the strategy as a whole. PGR uses a number of standard and non-standard measures to assess risk including correlations, value at risk, sector exposure, entropy and stress tests.

No assurance can be given that the Advisors’ strategies will be successful or that they will generate profits for the Partnership.

Specific Fund level performance information is included in Note 6 to the Partnership’s financial statements included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

(a) Liquidity.

The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Its only assets are its investment in the Funds and cash. The Funds’ only assets are their equity in trading accounts, consisting of cash and cash margin, net unrealized appreciation on open futures and forward contracts and U.S. Treasury bills at fair value, if applicable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership/Funds. While substantial losses could lead to a material decrease in liquidity, no such illiquidity occurred during the year ended December 31, 2016.

To minimize the risk relating to low margin deposits, the Partnership/Funds follow certain trading policies, including:

(i)

The Partnership/Funds invest their assets only in commodity interests that the Advisors believe are traded in sufficient volume to permit ease of taking and liquidating positions. Sufficient volume, in this context, refers to a level of liquidity that the Advisors believe will permit it to enter and exit trades without noticeably moving the market.

(ii)

An Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity if these positions would result in aggregate positions requiring a margin of more than 66 2/3% of the Partnership’s net assets allocated to that Advisor.

(iii)

The Partnership/Funds may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearing house, the physical commodity position is fully hedged.

(iv)

The Partnership/Funds do not employ the trading technique commonly known as “pyramiding,” in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as margin for the purchase or sale of additional positions in the same or related commodities.

(v)

The Partnership/Funds do not utilize borrowings other than short-term borrowings if the Partnership/Funds take delivery of any cash commodities.

(vi)

The Advisors may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership/Funds. The terms “spread” and “straddle” describe commodity futures trading strategies involving the simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but involving different delivery dates or markets.

(vii)

The Partnership/Funds will not permit the churning of their commodity trading accounts. The term “churning” refers to the practice of entering and exiting trades with a frequency unwarranted by legitimate efforts to profit from the trades, driven by the desire to generate commission income.

From January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016, the Partnership’s average margin to equity ratio (i.e., the percentage of assets on deposit required for margin) was approximately 15.0%. The foregoing margin to equity ratio takes into account cash held in the Partnership’s name, as well as the allocable value of the positions and cash held on behalf of the Partnership in the name of the Funds.

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, indirectly through its investment in the Funds, is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include futures, forwards, swaps and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified 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, a swap execution facility or OTC. Exchange-traded instruments include futures and certain standardized forward, swap and option contracts. Certain swap contracts may also be traded on a swap execution facility or OTC. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and also include certain forward, swap and option contracts. 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. The General Partner estimates that at any given time approximately 10.6% to 19.1% of the Funds’ contracts are traded OTC.

The risk to the limited partners that have purchased Redeemable Units in the Partnership is limited to the amount of their share of the Partnership’s net assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Funds due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Funds are exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

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. The Partnership’s/Funds’ risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s/Funds’ risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership/Funds to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership/Funds had credit risk and concentration risk during the reporting period and prior periods as MS&Co. and/or CGM or their affiliates were the sole counterparties or brokers with respect to the Partnership’s/Funds’ assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments was reduced to the extent that, through MS&Co. and/or CGM, the Partnership’s/Funds’ counterparty was an exchange or clearing organization. The Partnership/Funds continue to be subject to such risks with respect to MS&Co.

The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s/Funds’ 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 Partnership/Funds may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forward and option contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. (See “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” for further information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to financial statements.)

Other than the risks inherent in U.S. Treasury bills, money market mutual fund securities, commodity futures and forwards, options and swaps trading, the Partnership knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will result in, or which are reasonably likely to result in, the Partnership’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

(b) Capital Resources.

(i) The

Partnership has made no material commitments for capital expenditures.

(ii)

The Partnership’s capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners, as increased or decreased by gains or losses on trading and by expenses, interest income, redemptions of Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any. Gains or losses on trading cannot be predicted. Market movements in commodities are dependent upon fundamental and technical factors which the Advisors may or may not be able to identify, such as changing supply and demand relationships, weather, government, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. Partnership expenses consist of, among other things, ongoing selling agent fees, clearing fees, General Partner fees and advisory fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon trading performance and the ability of the Advisors to identify and take advantage of price movements in the commodity markets, in addition to the level of net assets maintained. In addition, the amount of interest income earned by the Partnership/Funds depends on (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s and/or applicable Fund’s accounts, (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities purchased by the Partnership and/or the Funds’ and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership, the Funds or MS&Co. has control.

No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions in any given period. A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem their Redeemable Units at the net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of the last day of any month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions. Redemptions generally are funded out of the Partnership’s cash holdings and/or redemption from the Funds. For the year ended December 31, 2016, 3,960.4120 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $5,195,545 and 46.4190 General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $60,000. For the year ended December 31, 2015, 1,915.3470 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $2,711,938 and 17.2090 General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $25,553. For the year ended December 31, 2014, 5,303.2420 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $5,818,031 and 111.4200 General Partner Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $126,417.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreased 13.2% from $1,388.09 to $1,205.22. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the net asset value per Redeemable Unit increased 1.3% from $1,370.41 to $1,388.09. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the net asset value per Redeemable Unit increased 20.1% from $1,140.94 to $1,370.41.

The Partnership experienced a net trading loss, through investments in the Funds, before fees and expenses in 2016 of $2,010,479. Losses were primarily attributed to the Funds’ trading in currencies, energy, grains, U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals, softs and indices and was partially offset by gains in non-U.S. interest rates. The net trading gains or losses for the Partnership/Funds are disclosed under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

The most significant losses were incurred within the energy markets during November from short positions in natural gas futures as prices surged during the latter half of the month as demand spiked. Additional losses were recorded during November from short positions in the crude oil complex as prices rallied late in the month after the OPEC nations announced an agreement to cut oil production. Losses within the energy markets were also experienced during April from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices surged as data from the Energy Information Agency showed U.S. crude oil production continued to decline. Within the metals markets, losses were recorded during May and August from long positions in silver and gold futures as prices moved lower as a strengthening U.S. dollar limited investor demand for precious metals. Losses within the agricultural markets were incurred during July from long positions in soybean and soybean meal futures as prices were weighed down by mounting anticipation that growers would collect a record crop during the year. Additional losses within the agricultural complex were experienced during November from long positions in coffee and sugar futures as easing supply concerns and a weakening Brazilian currency pushed prices lower. During October, losses were incurred within the global stock index sector from long positions in U.S. equity index futures as prices decreased as the pending presidential election in the U.S., disappointing corporate earnings, and speculation that central banks globally would cut back on stimulus measures diminished investor demand for riskier assets. Within the currency sector, losses were experienced during March from short positions in the British pound, Swiss franc, and the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the dollar weakened following dovish comments from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen that pushed out expectations for the U.S. central bank’s next interest rate hike. A portion of the Partnership’s losses for the year was offset by gains achieved within the global interest rate markets during January, February, and June from long positions in European fixed income futures as prices advanced on increased speculation that slow growth in the Eurozone economy would spur the European Central Bank to increase its quantitative easing measures. Additional gains within this sector were recorded during June from long positions in U.S. fixed income futures as investors sought out the relative safety of U.S. government debt amid the uncertainty surrounding the British vote to leave the European Union.

The Partnership experienced a net trading gain (before fees and expenses) in the Funds of $2,177,577 in 2015. Gains were primarily attributed to the trading of currencies, energy, non-U.S. interest rates, metals and softs, and was partially offset by losses in grains, U.S. interest rates, indices and livestock.

The most significant gains were achieved within the energy markets during November and December from short positions in crude oil and its related products as the OPEC nations failed to cut production and prices plunged amid a growing global supply glut. Gains in this sector were also recorded during January from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices fell amid speculation the OPEC nations would maintain high levels of crude oil production to curb output growth from shale production. Additional gains were experienced during September from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices continued to weaken as global supplies grew. Within the metals markets, gains were recorded during July from short positions in copper futures as prices moved lower amid increased concern a slowdown in the Chinese economy would diminish demand for industrial metals. Additional gains were recorded during July from short positions in gold and silver futures as prices fell as a strengthening U.S. dollar decreased demand for precious metals. During November, gains within the metals markets were achieved from short positions in copper futures as prices moved lower amid demand woes as China’s economy continued to sputter. Gains within the currency markets were experienced during July from short positions in the Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the Australian currency weakened after a plunge in commodity prices negatively affected the export nation’s economy. Additional gains in currencies were achieved during January from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the euro moved lower over renewed concerns that political turmoil in Greece could spur that nation’s exit from the European Union. The Partnership’s gains for the year were partially offset by trading losses incurred within the global stock index markets primarily during August from long positions in Pacific Rim, U.S., and European equity index futures as prices fell sharply amid continuing concerns that China’s slowdown would weigh on the global economy. Additional losses in this sector were recorded during December from long positions in U.S., European, and Asian equity index futures as prices fell after weakness in the Chinese economic system shocked the global economy. Within the agricultural complex, losses were experienced during June from short positions in wheat, soybeans, and corn futures as prices rallied after heavy rainfall in the U.S. Midwest raised the potential for crop damage. Additional losses were experienced within the agricultural markets during October from short positions in sugar futures as prices surged as a strengthening El Nino weather pattern threatened crops in Australia, while at the same time production declined in India and Brazil.

Interest income is earned on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of a Fund’s) brokerage account during each month was earned at the rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. All interest earned on the Partnership’s and/or the Funds’ account in excess of the amounts described above, if any, will be retained by MS&Co. and/or shared with the General Partner. Interest income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 increased by $11,772 and $45,311, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rates along with additional interest income earned on U.S. Treasury bills during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015. The amount of interest income earned by the Partnership depends on, (1) the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s and/or the Funds’ accounts (2) the amount of U.S. Treasury bills and/or money market mutual fund securities purchased by the Partnership and/or the Funds and (3) interest rates over which none of the Partnership, the Funds nor MS&Co. has control.

Ongoing selling agent fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Ongoing selling agent fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 decreased by $38,013 and $96,932, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015. The decrease in selling agent fees is primarily due to lower average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015.

General Partner fees are paid to the General Partner for administering the business and affairs of the Partnership including, among other things, (i) selecting, appointing and terminating the Partnership’s commodity trading advisor and (ii) monitoring the activities of the commodity trading advisors. These fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be analyzed in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. General Partner fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 decreased by $17,005 and $43,402, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015. This decrease in General Partner fees was due to lower average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015.

Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be compared in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Management fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 decreased by $26,415 and $65,830, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015. The decrease in management fees was due to lower average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2015.

Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by each Advisor as defined in the management agreements among the Partnership, the General Partner and each Advisor and are payable annually. There were no incentive fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016. Trading performance for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 resulted in incentive fees of $34,921 and $135,076, respectively. To the extent an Advisor incurs a loss for the Partnership, the Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until such Advisor recovers any net loss incurred by the Advisor and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership.

The Partnership pays professional fees, which generally include legal, accounting expenses, administrative, filing, reporting and data processing fees. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $164,112 and $173,278, respectively.

The Partnership experienced a net trading gain (before fees and expenses) in the Funds of $6,910,660 in 2014. Gains were primarily attributed to the trading of grains, currencies, energy, livestock, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and indices, and were partially offset by losses in metals and softs.

The most significant gains were achieved within the fixed income sector during October, November, and December from long positions in European fixed income futures as prices advanced on increased speculation the European Central Bank would increase its quantitative easing measures to stimulate the Eurozone’s stagnant economy. Additional gains within the sector were experienced during May and August from long positions in European fixed income futures as prices moved higher as investors speculated central banking authorities in Europe and Asia would increase stimulus measures. Within the energy markets, gains were experienced primarily during November and December from short positions in crude oil and its related products as prices moved lower amid rising U.S. oil production and after the OPEC nations failed to cut output in response to the global supply glut. Gains in the energy markets during June were recorded from long positions in crude oil and its related products as prices rallied during the first half of the month on speculation tensions in Iraq and Libya would curtail oil exports from the Middle East. Within the currency sector, gains were recorded during September from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the yen declined after economic indicators showed Japan’s economy was growing at a slower pace than previously forecast. During December, additional gains were recorded in the currency markets from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of the dollar continued to advance as the U.S. moves closer to its first interest-rate increase since 2006. Additional gains were recorded during February from long positions in the British pound, Swiss franc, and euro versus the U.S. dollar as the relative value of these European currencies strengthened versus the U.S. currency. Within the global stock index sector, gains were achieved during February from long positions in U.S. and European equity index futures as prices advanced amid improving U.S. and European consumer confidence and speculation the Federal Reserve would continue to support the U.S. economy. During May, gains were achieved from long positions in U.S. equity index futures as prices moved higher amid speculation stronger than expected retail sales and manufacturing job growth figures during April predicted a rebound in the U.S. economy. Additional gains were recorded during November from long positions in U.S. and Asian equity index futures as priced rallied after the release of positive economic reports in the U.S. and as Japan’s Prime Minister postponed a sales tax increase in the Asian nation. Within the agricultural sector, gains were experienced during September from short positions in corn and wheat futures as favorable growing conditions in the U.S. Midwest reinforced analysts’ predictions that U.S. farms are heading for record crop harvests in 2014. Additional gains were recorded during July and September from short positions in sugar futures as prices declined as farmers in Thailand and Brazil moved to increase sugarcane plantings. The Partnership’s gains for the year were partially offset by losses incurred within the metals markets during June from short positions in silver futures as prices advanced as increased geopolitical unrest in the Ukraine and the Middle East spurred investor demand for the relative safety of precious metals. During January, losses in this sector were recorded from long positions in copper futures as prices moved lower amid concerns poor economic news in China would limit demand from the world’s largest consumer of industrial metals.

In the General Partner’s opinion, the Advisors continue to employ trading methods and produce results consistent with the objectives of the Partnership and expectations for the Advisors’ programs. The General Partner continues to monitor the Advisors’ performance on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis to assure these objectives are met.

Commodity markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increases the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Funds depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisors to correctly identify those price trends. Price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisors are able to identify them, the Funds expect to increase capital through operations.

(d) Off-balance Sheet Arrangements. None.

(e) Contractual Obligations. None.

(f) Operational Risk.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Funds, is directly exposed to market risk and credit risk, which arise in the normal course of its business activities. Slightly less direct, but of critical importance, are risks pertaining to operational and back office support. This is particularly the case in a rapidly changing and increasingly global environment with increasing transaction volumes and an expansion in the number and complexity of products in the marketplace.

Such risks include:

Operational/Settlement Risk — the risk of financial and opportunity loss and legal liability attributable to operational problems, such as inaccurate pricing of transactions, untimely trade execution, clearance and/or settlement, or the inability to process large volumes of transactions. The Partnership/Funds are subject to increased risks with respect to their trading activities in emerging markets, where clearance, settlement, and custodial risks are often greater than in more established markets.

Technological Risk — the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership’s/Funds’ ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers, and in the markets where the Partnership/Funds participate. Additionally, the General Partner’s computer systems may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, mishandling or misuse, computer viruses or malware, cyber attacks and other events that could have a security impact on such systems. If one or more of such events occur, this potentially could jeopardize a limited partner’s personal, confidential, proprietary or other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, the General Partner’s computer systems, and adversely affect the Partnership’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Legal/Documentation Risk — the risk of loss attributable to deficiencies in the documentation of transactions (such as trade confirmations) and customer relationships (such as master netting agreements) or errors that result in non-compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Financial Control Risk — the risk of loss attributable to limitations in financial systems and controls. Strong financial systems and controls ensure that assets are safeguarded, that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization, and that financial information utilized by management and communicated to external parties, including the Partnership’s Redeemable Unit holders, creditors, and regulators, is free of material errors.

(g) Critical Accounting Policies.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. A summary of the Partnership’s significant accounting policies is described in Note 2 to the Partnership’s financial statements included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

The Partnership’s most significant accounting policy is the valuation of its investments in the Funds. The fair value of the investments in the Funds is determined based on the Fund’s net asset value per Redeemable Unit as calculated by the Funds or the Partnership’s (1) net contribution and (2) its allocated share of the undistributed profits and losses, including realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses), of the Funds.

Additionally, the Fund’s investments in futures, option and forward contracts and U.S. Treasury bills, as applicable, are carried at fair value. The fair value of exchange-traded futures, option and forward contracts is determined by the various exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract as of the close of business on the last business day of the reporting period. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is extrapolated on a forward basis from the spot prices quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period from various exchanges. The fair value of non-exchange-traded foreign currency option contracts is calculated by applying an industry standard model application for options valuation of foreign currency options, using as inputs the spot prices, interest rates, and option implied volatilities quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period. U.S. Treasury bills are valued at the last available bid price received from independent pricing services as of the close of the last business day of the reporting period.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Introduction

The Partnership/Funds are speculative commodity pools. The market sensitive instruments held by them are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership’s/Funds’ assets are subject to the risk of trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Funds’ main line of business.

The limited partners will not be liable for losses exceeding the current net asset value of their investment. This limited liability is a result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Partnership’s/Funds’ open positions and, consequently, in their earnings and cash balances. The Partnership’s/Funds’ market risks are influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects of the Fund’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which they trade.

The Partnership/Funds rapidly acquire and liquidate both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Partnership’s/Funds’ past performance is not necessarily indicative of their future results.

“Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership/Funds could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership’s/Funds’ speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership/Funds of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership’s/Funds’ experiences to date (i.e., “risk of ruin”). In light of the foregoing, as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Partnership’s/Funds’ losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership’s/Funds’ attempts to manage their market risks.

Materiality as used in this section is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and the potential losses caused by such movements, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Master’s market sensitive instruments.

Quantifying the Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk

The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’s/Funds’ market risk exposures contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). All quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor except for statements of historical fact (such as the terms of particular contracts and the number of market risk sensitive instruments held during or at the end of the reporting period).

The Funds’ risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the Advisors is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Funds’ mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Funds’ open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s earnings (realized and unrealized). Exchange margin requirements have been used by the Funds as the measure of their Value at Risk. Margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day interval. The margin levels are established by dealers and exchanges using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation.

In the case of market sensitive instruments which are not exchange-traded (almost exclusively currencies in the case of the Funds), the margin requirements for the equivalent futures positions have been used as Value at Risk. In those rare cases in which a futures-equivalent margin is not available, dealers’ margins have been used.

The fair value of the Funds’ futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, certain of the Advisors trade commodity options. The Value at Risk associated with options is reflected in the following table as the margin requirement attributable to the instrument underlying each option. Where this instrument is a futures contract, the futures margin has been used, and where this instrument is a physical commodity, the futures-equivalent maintenance margin has been used. This calculation is conservative in that it assumes that the fair value of an option will decline by the same amount as the fair value of the underlying instrument, whereas, in fact, the fair values of the options traded by the Funds in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.

In quantifying the Partnership’s/Funds’ Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been added to determine each trading category’s aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Partnership’s/Funds’ positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.

The Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors

Value at Risk tables represent a probabilistic assessment of the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments. The Advisors currently trade the Partnership’s assets indirectly in master fund managed accounts established in the name of the Funds over which they have been granted limited authority to make trading decisions. The first two trading Value at Risk tables reflect the market sensitive instruments held by the Partnership indirectly, through its investments in the Funds. The remaining trading Value at Risk tables reflect the market sensitive instruments held by each Fund, separately.

The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s open positions by market category as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, the Partnership’s total capitalization was $19,849,696.

The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Funds are typically many times the applicable margin requirement (margin requirements generally range between 1% and 15% of contract face value, although an exchange may increase margin requirements on short notice) as well as many times the capitalization of the Funds. The magnitude of the Funds’ open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Funds to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk tables — as well as the past performance of the Funds — give no indication of this “risk of ruin.”

Non-Trading Risk

The Partnership/Funds have non-trading market risk on the its foreign cash balances not needed for margin. These balances and any market risk they may represent are immaterial.

A decline in short-term interest rates would result in a decline in the Partnership’s cash management income. This cash flow risk is not considered to be material.

Materiality, as used throughout this section, is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and any associated potential losses, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership’s market-sensitive instruments, in relation to the Partnership’s net assets.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Funds’ market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Funds manage their primary market risk exposures — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Funds’ primary market risk exposures as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisors for managing such exposures are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Funds’ risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material changes to the risk exposures and the management strategies of the Funds. There can be no assurance that the Funds’ current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short or long term. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Funds.

The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Funds as of December 31, 2016, by market sector.

Currencies. The Partnership’s currency exposure is to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily fluctuations that disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. These fluctuations are influenced by interest rate changes as well as political and general economic conditions. The General Partner does not anticipate that the risk profile of the Partnership’s currency sector will change significantly in the future.

Equities. The Partnership’s primary equity exposure is to equity price risk in the G8 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Partnership are limited to futures on broadly based indices. As of December 31, 2016, the Partnership’s primary exposures were in the FTSE 100 (United Kingdom), Russell 2000 (U.S.), Dow Jones Industrials 30 (U.S.), S&P 500 (U.S.), NASDAQ 100 (U.S.) and Dow Jones Euro STOXX 50 (Europe) stock indices. The Partnership is primarily exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major European, U.S., and Pacific Rim indices. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but would make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid being “whipsawed” into numerous small losses.)

Interest Rates. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country as well as relative interest rate movements between countries materially affect the Partnership’s profitability. The Partnership’s primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and the other G8 countries. However, the Partnership may also take futures positions on the government debt of smaller nations — e.g., Australia.

Commodities:

Metals. The Partnership’s primary metal market exposure as of December 31, 2016 was to fluctuations in the price of gold, copper, and zinc.

Energy. The Partnership’s primary energy market exposure is to oil and natural gas price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East and weather conditions. Energy prices can be volatile and substantial profits and losses, which have been experienced in the past, are expected to continue to be experienced in these markets in the future.

Grains. The Partnership’s trading risk exposure in the grains is primarily to agricultural price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Wheat, the soybean complex, and corn accounted for the majority of the Partnership’s grain exposure as of December 31, 2016.

Softs. The Partnership’s trading risk exposure in the soft commodities is to agricultural-related price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Cocoa, sugar, coffee, and cotton accounted for the majority of the Partnership’s soft commodities exposure as of December 31, 2016.

Livestock. The Partnership’s primary risk exposure in livestock is to fluctuations in cattle and hog prices.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure

The following was the only non-trading risk exposure of the Partnership/Funds as of December 31, 2016.

Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership/Funds may hold various foreign currency balances. The Advisors regularly convert foreign currency balances to U.S. dollars in attempt to control the Partnership’s/Funds’ non-trading risk.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

The General Partner monitors the Partnership’s/Funds’ performance and the concentration of open positions, and consults with the Advisors concerning the Partnership’s/Funds’ overall risk profile. If the General Partner felt it necessary to do so, the General Partner could require the Advisors to close out positions as well as enter positions traded on behalf of the Partnership/Funds. However, any such intervention would be a highly unusual event. The General Partner primarily relies on the Advisors’ own risk control policies while maintaining a general supervisory overview of the Partnership’s/Funds’ market risk exposures.

The Advisors apply their own risk management policies to their trading. The Advisors often follow diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss points to exit a position. The Advisors’ research of risk management often suggests ongoing modifications to their trading programs.

As part of the General Partner’s risk management, the General Partner periodically meets with the Advisors to discuss their risk management and to look for any material changes to the Advisors’ portfolio balance and trading techniques. The Advisors are required to notify the General Partner of any material changes to their programs.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over

Financial Reporting

The management of Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”), Ceres Managed Futures LLC, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and for our assessment of internal control over financial reporting. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;

(ii)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Partnership; and

(iii)

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection and correction of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The management of Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. has assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment, management concluded that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 based on the criteria referred to above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners of Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”), including the schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of income and expenses and changes in partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and changes in its partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

1.	Organization:

Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York on August 25, 1999 to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures, option, swap and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, indices, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, lumber, metals and softs. The commodity interests that are indirectly traded by the Partnership, through its investment in the Funds (defined in Note 6, “Investment in the Funds”), are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The General Partner (defined below) may also determine to invest up to all of the Partnership’s assets (directly or indirectly through its investment in the Funds) in United States (“U.S.”) Treasury bills and/or money market mutual funds, including money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley or its affiliates.

Between January 31, 2000 (commencement of the initial offering period) and May 30, 2000, 16,045 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) were sold at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit. The proceeds of the initial offering were held in an escrow account until May 31, 2000, at which time they were turned over to the Partnership for trading. The Partnership was authorized to sell 150,000 Redeemable Units during its initial offering period. As of November 25, 2002, the Partnership was authorized to sell an additional 40,000 Redeemable Units. The Partnership no longer offers Redeemable Units for sale.

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. At December 31, 2016, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC (“MSSB Holdings”). MSSB Holdings was ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley is a publicly held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Morgan Stanley is engaged in various financial services and other businesses.

During the periods covered by this report, the Partnership’s/Funds’ commodity broker was Morgan Stanley & Co, LLC (“MS&Co.”), a registered futures commission merchant. The Partnership/Funds also deposit a portion of their cash in a non-trading account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2019; the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

2.	Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Profit Allocation. The General Partner and each limited partner of the Partnership share in the profits and losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of Partnership interest owned by each, except that no limited partner shall be liable for obligations of the Partnership in excess of its capital contribution and profits, if any, or net of distributions or redemptions and losses, if any.

Statement of Cash Flows. The Partnership is not required to provide a Statement of Cash Flows.

Partnership’s Investments. The Partnership carries its investment in the Funds, other than its investment in Graham Master, based on the Fund’s net asset value per Redeemable Unit as calculated by the Funds. The Partnership carries its investment or redemption and losses, if any, in Graham Master based on the Partnership’s (1) net contribution to Graham Master and (2) its allocated share of the undistributed profits and losses, including realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses), of Graham Master.

Funds’ Investments. All commodity interests of the Partnership/Funds, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, are held for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on the trade date and open contracts are recorded at fair value (as described in Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements”) at the measurement date. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the measurement date. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated and are determined using the first-in, first-out method. Unrealized gains or losses on open contracts are included as a component of equity in trading account in the Funds’ Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized gains or losses are reported in the Partnership/Funds’ Statements of Income and Expenses.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying value of the Partnership’s/Funds’ assets and liabilities presented in the Statements of Financial Condition that qualify as financial instruments under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, “Financial Instruments,” approximates the fair value due to the short term nature of such balances.

Income Taxes. Income taxes have not been listed as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on its share of the Partnership’s income and expenses. The General Partner concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Partnership’s financial statements. The Partnership files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The 2013 through 2016 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. The General Partner does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

Investment Company Status. Effective January 1, 2014, the Partnership adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08 “Financial Services—Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements” and based on the General Partner’s assessment, the Partnership has been deemed to be an investment company since inception. Accordingly, the Partnership follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of Topic 946 and reflects its investments at fair value with unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value reflected in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

Net Income (Loss) per Redeemable Unit. Net income (loss) per Redeemable Unit is calculated in accordance with ASC 946, “Financial Services–Investment Companies.” See Note 8, “Financial Highlights.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncement. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The amendments in this update address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments for all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities. One of the amendments in this update eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet or a description of changes in the methods and significant assumptions. Additionally, the update eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities. Investment companies are specifically exempted from ASU 2016-01’s equity investment accounting provisions and will continue to follow the industry specific guidance for investment accounting under Topic 946. For public business entities, this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein. For other entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The General Partner is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the Partnership’s financial statements and related disclosures.

3.	Agreements:

Limited Partnership Agreement:

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000. Effective October 1, 2014, the Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly fee in return for its services equal to 1/12 of 0.9% (0.9% per year) of the month-end net assets of the Partnership. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating the General Partner fee are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

Management Agreement:

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, entered into management agreements (each, a “Management Agreement”) with Graham Capital Management, L.P. (“Graham”), Aspect Capital Limited (“Aspect”) and PGR Capital LLP (“PGR”) (each an “Advisor” and collectively, the “Advisors”), each of which is a registered commodity trading advisor. The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, had also entered into a Management Agreement with Eckhardt Trading Company (“Eckhardt”). References herein to the Advisors may also include, as relevant, Eckhardt. Eckhardt was terminated as a commodity trading advisor for the Partnership as of December 31, 2014. The Advisors are not affiliated with one another, are not affiliated with the General Partner or MS&Co. and are not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership. The Partnership pays Graham and Aspect a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.75% (1.75% per year) and 1/12 of 1.25% (1.25% per year), respectively, of month-end net assets allocated to the respected Advisor. The Partnership pays PGR, and had paid Eckhardt, a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1% (1% per year) of month-end net assets allocated to the Advisor. Prior to July 1, 2014 the Partnership paid Eckhardt 1/12 of 2% (2% per year). Prior to April 1, 2014, the Partnership paid Graham 1/12 of 2% (2% per year). Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating management fees are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. Each Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

In addition, the Partnership is obligated to pay each Advisor an incentive fee payable annually equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in each Management Agreement, earned by each Advisor for the Partnership. To the extent an Advisor incurs a loss for the Partnership the Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred by the Advisor and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership.

In allocating the assets of the Partnership among the Advisors, the General Partner considers, among other factors, past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets among the trading advisors and may allocate the assets to additional advisors at any time.

Customer Agreement:

The Partnership has entered into a customer agreement with MS&Co. (the “Partnership Customer Agreement”). Under the Partnership Customer Agreement and the foreign exchange brokerage account agreement (described in Note 4, “Trading Activities”), the Partnership, through its investment in the Funds, pays MS&Co. (or will reimburse MS&Co., if previously paid) its allocable share of all trading fees for the clearing and, where applicable, execution of transactions as well as exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”). Clearing fees are allocated to the Partnership based on its proportionate share of each Fund. Clearing fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. All of the Partnership’s assets available for trading in commodity interests not held in the Funds’ brokerage accounts at MS&Co. are deposited in the Partnership’s brokerage account at MS&Co. The Partnership’s cash deposited with MS&Co. is held in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. MS&Co. has agreed to pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of a Fund’s) average daily equity maintained in cash during each month at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate. The Partnership Customer Agreement may generally be terminated upon notice by either party.

Selling Agent Agreement:

The Partnership entered into a selling agent agreement with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management (the “Selling Agreement”). Under the Selling Agreement, the Partnership pays Morgan Stanley Wealth Management a monthly ongoing selling agent fee. Prior to April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was paid at a rate equal to 5.4% per year of adjusted month-end net assets. Effective April 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was reduced from an annual rate of 5.4% to an annual rate of 2.9%. Effective October 1, 2014, the monthly ongoing selling agent fee was further reduced from an annual rate of 2.9% to an annual rate of 2.0%. The ongoing selling agent fee received by Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is shared with the properly registered/exempted financial advisers of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management who sell Redeemable Units in the Partnership. Month-end net assets, for the purpose of calculating ongoing selling agent fees are net assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s clearing fees, incentive fee accruals, the monthly management fees, the General Partner fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month.

4.	Trading Activities:

The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity interests. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets through a “master/feeder” structure. The Partnership’s pro-rata share of the results of the Funds’ trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

The Customer Agreements give the Partnership and the Funds the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts in the Statements of Financial Condition. The Funds net, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and open forward contracts on the Funds’ Statements of Financial Condition as the criteria under ASC 210-20, “Balance Sheet,” have been met.

Trading and transaction fees are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisors for the Funds and the Partnership’s ownership of the Funds.

5.	Fair Value Measurements:

Funds’ Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is defined as 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 under current market conditions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to fair values derived from unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The fair value of exchange-traded futures, option and forward contracts is determined by the various exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract as of the close of business on the last business day of the reporting period. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is extrapolated on a forward basis from the spot prices quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period from various exchanges. The fair value of non-exchange-traded foreign currency option contracts is calculated by applying the industry standard model application for options valuation of foreign currency options, using as input the spot prices, interest rates and option implied volatilities quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period. U.S. Treasury bills are valued at the last available bid price received from independent pricing services as of the close of the last business day of the reporting period.

The Funds consider prices for exchange-traded commodity futures, forward, swap and option contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1). The values of U.S. Treasury bills, non-exchange-traded forward, swap and certain option contracts for which market quotations are not readily available, are priced by broker quotes or pricing services that derive fair values for those assets and liabilities from observable inputs (Level 2). The value of the Partnership’s investments in the Funds reflects its proportional interest in the Funds. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Funds did not hold any derivative instruments that were priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of the General Partner’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). Transfers between levels are considered at the end of the reporting period. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2.

6.	Investment in the Funds:

On April 1, 2008, the assets allocated to Eckhardt for trading were invested in CMF Eckhardt Master Fund L.P. (“Eckhardt Master”), a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 10,000.0000 units of Eckhardt Master with cash equal to $10,000,000. Eckhardt Master permitted accounts managed by Eckhardt using its Standard Program — Higher Leveraged, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The Partnership fully redeemed its investment in Eckhardt Master on December 31, 2014 for cash equal to $6,899,906.

The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to any of the trading programs discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Notes to Financial Statements

7.	Distributions and Redemptions:

Distributions are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of the General Partner. No distributions have been made to date. The General Partner does not intend to make any distributions of the Partnership’s profits. A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of the end of each month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with the redemptions.

8.	Financial Highlights:

Financial highlights for the limited partner class as a whole for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:


Per Redeemable Unit Performance (for a unit outstanding throughout the year):*	2016			2015			2014
Net realized and unrealized gains (losses)	$	(113.76)		$	97.67		$	310.43
Net investment loss		(69.11)			(79.99)			(80.96)

Increase (decrease) for the year		(182.87)			17.68			229.47
Net asset value per Redeemable Unit, beginning of year		1,388.09			1,370.41			1,140.94

Net asset value per Redeemable Unit, end of year	$	1,205.22		$	1,388.09		$	1,370.41

	2016			2015			2014
Ratios to Average Limited Partners’ Capital:
Net investment loss**		(5.2)	%		(5.8)	%		(7.2)	%


Operating expense		5.4	%		5.3	%		6.4	%
Incentive fees		-	%		0.5	%		0.8	%

Total expenses		5.4	%		5.8	%		7.2	%

Total return:
Total return before incentive fees		(13.2)	%		1.8	%		20.9	%
Incentive fees		-	%		(0.5)	%		(0.8)	%

Total return after incentive fees		(13.2)	%		1.3	%		20.1	%

Net investment loss per Redeemable Unit is calculated by dividing the expenses net of interest income by the average number of Redeemable Units outstanding during the year. The net realized and unrealized gains (losses) per Redeemable Unit is a balancing amount necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per Redeemable Unit with the other per unit information.

**	Interest income less total expenses.

The above ratios and total return may vary for individual investors based on the timing of capital transactions during the year. Additionally, these ratios are calculated for the limited partner class using the limited partners’ share of income, expenses and average partners’ capital of the Partnership and includes the income and expenses allocated from the Funds.

9.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, indirectly through its investments in the Funds, is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures, swaps and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified 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, a swap execution facility or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded instruments include futures and certain standardized forward, swap and option contracts. Certain swap contracts may also be traded on a swap execution facility or OTC. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and also include certain forward and option contracts. 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. The General Partner estimates that at any given time approximately 17.3% to 36.5% of the Funds’ contracts are traded OTC.

Futures Contracts. The Funds trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of investments, currency or a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, at a specified price on a specified future date, unless the contract is closed before the delivery date or the delivery quantity is something where physical delivery cannot occur (such as the S&P 500 Index), whereby such contract is settled in cash. Payments (“variation margin”) may be made or received by the Funds each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Funds. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in futures contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits, through the futures broker, directly with the exchange on which the contracts are traded. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are included in the Funds’ Statements of Income and Expenses.

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Forward foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued daily, and the Funds’ 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 included in the Funds’ Statements of Financial Condition. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on forward foreign currency contracts are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur, respectively, and are included in the Funds’ Statements of Income and Expenses.

The Funds do 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 total trading results in the Funds’ Statements of Income and Expenses.

Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

London Metals Exchange Forward Contracts. Metal contracts traded on the London Metals Exchange (“LME”) represent a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, tin or zinc. LME contracts traded by the Funds are cash settled based on prompt dates published by the LME. Variation margin may be made or received by the Funds each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Funds. A contract is considered offset when all long positions have been matched with a like number of short positions settling on the same prompt date. When the contract is closed at the prompt date, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in LME contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits, through the broker, directly with the LME. Net realized gains (losses) and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on metal contracts are included in the Funds’ Statements of Income and Expenses.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Funds due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Partnership/Funds are exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

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. The Partnership’s/Funds’ risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and is not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s/Funds’ risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership/Funds to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership/Funds have credit risk and concentration risk as MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate, is the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership’s/Funds’ assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that, through MS&Co. or an MS&Co. affiliate, the Partnership’s/Funds’ counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

The majority of these instruments mature within one year of the inception date. However, due to the nature of the Funds’ business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Subsequent Events:

As of January 1, 2017, the General Partner became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley Domestic Holdings, Inc. (“MSD Holdings”). Prior to January 1, 2017, the General Partner was a wholly-owned subsidiary of MSSB Holdings. MSD Holdings is ultimately owned by Morgan Stanley.

The General Partner has evaluated the subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and has determined that there were no additional subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

On December 1, 2016, the Board of Directors of the General Partner dismissed Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the registered public accounting firm for the Partnership, effective as of the close of business on the day the Partnership’s audited financial statements for the 2016 fiscal year end, including this Form 10-K, are filed.

The audit reports of Deloitte on the Partnership’s financial statements as of and for the two most recent fiscal years (ending December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015) did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Partnership’s three most recent fiscal years (ending December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014), there were no disagreements between the Partnership and Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter thereof in its report on the financial statements of the Partnership for such periods. During the Partnership’s three most recent fiscal years (ending December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014), there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v)).

On December 1, 2016, the Board of Directors of the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, approved the engagement of Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Partnership. During the Partnership’s fiscal years ending December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and the interim period prior to engaging EY, neither the Partnership, the General Partner, nor anyone on their behalf consulted EY, on behalf of the Partnership, regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction (either completed or proposed), the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Partnership’s financial statements, or any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the instructions thereto, or a “reportable event,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

The Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership on the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods expected in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports it files is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of the General Partner, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.

The General Partner is responsible for ensuring that there is an adequate and effective process for establishing, maintaining and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures for the Partnership’s external disclosures.

The General Partner’s President and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2016 and, based on that evaluation, the General Partner’s President and CFO have concluded that at that date the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process under the supervision of the General Partner’s President and CFO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These controls include policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;

•

provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) the Partnership’s receipts are handled and expenditures are made only pursuant to authorizations of the General Partner; and

•

The Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed as Item 8 hereto includes the General Partner’s report on internal control over financial reporting (“Management’s Report”).

There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting process during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information.

None.

PART III

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

The Partnership has no directors or executive officers and its affairs are managed by its General Partner. Investment decisions are made by the Advisors.

The directors and executive officers of the General Partner are Patrick T. Egan (President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the General Partner), Steven Ross (Chief Financial Officer and Director), Maureen O’Toole (Director), M. Paul Martin (Director), Feta Zabeli (Director) and Matthew R. Graver (Director). Each director holds office until the earlier of his or her death, resignation or removal. Vacancies on the board of directors may be filled by either (i) the majority vote of the remaining directors or (ii) MSD Holdings, as the sole member of the General Partner. The officers of the General Partner are designated by the General Partner’s board of directors. Each officer will hold office until his or her successor is designated and qualified or until his or her death, resignation or removal.

Directors of the General Partner are responsible for overall corporate governance of the General Partner and meet periodically to consider strategic decisions regarding the General Partner’s activities. Under CFTC rules, each Director of the General Partner is deemed to be a principal of the General Partner and, as a result, is listed as such with NFA. Patrick T. Egan, Steven Ross, Maureen O’Toole and Feta Zabeli serve on the General Partner’s Investment Committee and are the trading principals responsible for allocation decisions (or supervising those responsible).

Patrick T. Egan, age 48, has been a Director of the General Partner since December 2010. Since December 2010, Mr. Egan has been a principal and registered as an associated person of the General Partner, and is an associate member of NFA. Since October 2014, Mr. Egan has served as President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the General Partner. Since August 2013, Mr. Egan has been registered as a swap associated person of the General Partner. From September 2013 to May 2014, Mr. Egan served as a Vice President of Morgan Stanley Strategies LLC, formerly known as Morgan Stanley GWM Feeder Strategies LLC, which acts as a general partner to multiple alternative investment entities, and Morgan Stanley AI GP LLC, formerly known as Morgan Stanley HedgePremier GP LLC, which acts as a general partner and administrative agent to numerous hedge fund feeder funds.
