MATERIAL INTERESTS Clause Samples
The MATERIAL INTERESTS clause defines and discloses any significant financial or personal interests that parties to the agreement may have in relation to the subject matter of the contract. Typically, this clause requires parties to declare if they, or their close associates, stand to benefit materially from the agreement, such as through ownership stakes, employment, or other financial arrangements. By mandating transparency about such interests, the clause helps prevent conflicts of interest and ensures that all parties are aware of any potential biases or influences that could affect the integrity of the contractual relationship.

The Local Manager and any of its affiliates (an “Affiliate”) may, subject to the limitations of the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and to the overriding principles of suitability and best execution and without prior reference to the Investment Adviser, effect transactions in which the Local Manager or Affiliate has, directly or indirectly, a material interest or a relationship of any description with another party, which may involve a potential conflict with the Local Manager’s duty to the Investment Adviser. Neither the Local Manager nor any Affiliate shall be liable to account to the Investment Adviser for any profit, commission or remuneration made or received from or by reason of such transactions or any connected transactions nor will the Local Manager’s fees, unless otherwise provided, be abated. For example, such potential conflicting interests or duties may arise because: · any of the Local Manager’s or Affiliate’s directors or employees is a director of, holds or deals in securities of, or is otherwise interested in any company whose securities are held or dealt in on behalf of the Investment Adviser; · the transaction is in the securities of a company for which an Affiliate has provided corporate finance advice, underwritten, managed or arranged an issue or offer for sale; · the Local Manager may act as agent for the Investment Adviser in relation to transactions in which it is also acting as agent for the account of other clients and/or an Affiliate; · the transaction is in units or shares of a collective investment scheme (regulated or unregulated) of which the Local Manager or any Affiliate is the manager, operator, banker, adviser, custodian or trustee; or · The Local Manager may act as agent for a counterparty and also act as agent on behalf of the Investment Adviser and in the course of so acting may charge a commission to either the counterparty or the Investment Adviser. Nothing in the Agreement shall oblige the Local Manager or any Affiliate to accept responsibilities more extensive than those set out in the Agreement or shall give rise to any fiduciary or equitable duties which would prevent or hinder either: (i) the Local Manager or any Affiliate performing investment management or other services for any person or entity other than the Investment Adviser or from making investments on their own behalf and the performance of such services for others or investment on their own behalf will not be deemed to violate or give...
