For comparison, the HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index fell -1.30% and 3-month USD Libor returned 0.67% over the same period. Portfolio Review The Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") follows the Winton Diversified Program (Enhanced) (the "Program"), a systematic investment approach where decisions are driven by statistical inference based on the empirical analysis of data, rather than instinct or intuition. The Program is operated as an automated, computer-based system that uses leverage to invest long and short, across global futures, forwards and equities. It employs multiple strategies in over 100 markets. Fund performance was challenging over the review period as exposure to stock markets pushed returns into negative territory. The cash equities sector had a particularly difficult start to 2016 with both momentum and fundamental signals detracting from returns, although performance from the latter signal has recovered since July. Meanwhile, the Program's overall position in stock indices turned short overall when equities sold off in the opening weeks of the year, detracted from returns when markets subsequently recovered, and was then long as markets fell after Brexit. In commodities, precious metals also weighed on returns due to Program positioning being short as gold rallied in the opening months of 2016 and long falling prices during May, August and October. Futures sectors were profitable for the Fund overall with carry and trend-following signals both adding value. Long fixed income positioning was the main positive driver of performance for the 12 months as a whole due to some strong performance in the early part of the review period: EURIBOR and short sterling futures were the most profitable markets in short-term interest rates, while German bund and Japanese government bond futures led the contributors to returns in bonds. The Fund also held onto profits from a strong downwards trend in crude oil prices during the first half of the review period, which benefited the Program's short positions in energies. 2 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund For the year ended [LOGO OMITTED] October 31, 2016 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS (continued) Smaller profits were made in currencies and the sector was responsible for the top-two contributors to returns at the contract level: the British pound and the Japanese yen. The Program profited from sterling falling by a fifth against the greenback over the review period on concerns around the Brexit vote, while a longstanding position in the Japanese yen benefited from a 15% appreciation versus the US dollar, despite tightening policy in the US and further easing in Japan. These profits were reduced by losses from a short position in the euro. In terms of Program development, Winton believes that financial markets can be studied using scientific methods in the same way as other natural phenomena, giving rise to inferential and ever-evolving investment systems. The Program is therefore backed by Winton's overarching research process which seeks improvements across the investment process. With this in mind, we transferred our futures system onto a new technology platform in November 2015. We believe that the new platform will make it easier to alter the system going forward. As part of this project, changes to our data processes also enhanced the level of control we have around checking incoming data as well as the calculations we subsequently perform on it. While we were disappointed to see the Fund's net asset value per share decline over the review period, we do not expect the Program to deliver positive returns in every timeframe. We take comfort in our research and continue to believe that the Program has the potential to provide our investors with attractive diversification benefits and returns that are in line with the stated investment objective.

ORGANIZATION Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") is a Delaware statutory trust registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Fund commenced operations on September 30, 2015. The Fund is a closed-end diversified investment management company that operates as an interval fund. The Fund currently offers a single class of shares of beneficial interest designated as Class I shares to investors eligible to invest in the Fund. Winton Capital US LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an investment adviser, serves as the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Winton Group Limited, an English limited company. The Adviser provides investment advisory services to the Fund and its Subsidiary (as defined below), and is responsible for their investment activities. The Fund'sinvestment objective is to seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation through compound growth. The investment strategy of the Fund is to invest globally, long and short, using leverage, in a diversified range of instruments which the Adviser believes are liquid (including exchange traded futures, options and forwards, currency forwards traded over the counter, equity securities (including common stocks of companies of any market capitalization, depositary receipts and exchange traded funds), derivatives linked to such securities (including swaps and equity index futures) and other related instruments) by following a systematic investment process that is based on statistical research. The Fund either invests directly in those instruments, or indirectly by investing via a swap or via its wholly-owned subsidiary, Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund Ltd., organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the "Subsidiary"), which may then invest in such assets directly or indirectly. The Fund may also invest a significant portion of its assets in other instruments for cash management purposes. These other instruments are expected to be predominantly comprised of U.S. Treasury obligations but may include debt instruments of any government, corporation or other entity and may include other instruments such as money market funds. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective in accordance with its investment strategy by following a systematic investment process which has been developed and is implemented by the Adviser. The investment process is based 25 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 1. ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED) on statistical analysis of historical data. This research is used to develop investment strategies that are operated as an automated, computer-based system. This investment system is implemented, with certain variations resulting from particular investment constraints, to create different investment programs, including the program used by the Fund (the "Program"). An updated Prospectus and related Statement of Additional Information were issued on March 1, 2016. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following are significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Fund: a) STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE -- These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance issued in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 Financial Services -- Investment Companies by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board("FASB"). b) USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of assets, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. c) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT -- The Fund's securities are recorded at fair value. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value using a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to value the Fund's investments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. d) COMMODITY-LINKED INVESTMENTS -- The Fund may seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in a wholly owned Subsidiary. The Subsidiary, unlike the Fund, may invest to a significant 26 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) d) COMMODITY-LINKED INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)-- extent in commodities, commodity contracts, commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, other commodity investments and derivative instruments. The Subsidiary may also invest in other instruments in which the Fund is permitted to invest, either as investments or to serve as margin or collateral for its derivative positions. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. In order for a Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("Subchapter M of the Code"), the Fund must derive at least 90% of its gross income each taxable year from qualifying income. The status of certain commodity-linked derivative instruments as qualifying income has been addressed in Revenue Ruling 2006- 1 and Revenue Ruling 2006-31 which provide that income from certain commodity-linked derivative instruments in which the Fund invests will not be considered qualifying income. To the extent the Fund invests in such instruments directly, the Fund will seek to restrict its income from commodity- linked derivative instruments that do not generate qualifying income, such as commodity-linked futures, to a maximum of 10% of its gross income (when combined with its other investments that produce non-qualifying income). e) SECURITIES SOLD SHORT -- The Fund may engage in short sales that are either "uncovered" or "against the box." A short sale is "against the box" if at all times during which the short position is open, the Fund owns at least an equal amount of the securities or securities convertible into, or exchangeable without further consideration for, securities of the same issue as the securities that are sold short. A short sale against the box is a taxable transaction to the Fund with respect to the securities that are sold short. Uncovered short sales are transactions under which the Fund sells a security it does not own. To complete such a transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer.The Fund then is obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of the replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the Fund. Until the security is replaced, the Fund is required to pay the lender amounts equal to any dividends or interest that accrue during the period of the loan. To borrow the security, the Fund also may be required to pay a premium, which would increase the cost of the security sold. The proceeds of the short 27 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) e) SECURITIES SOLD SHORT (CONTINUED) -- sale will be retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements, until the short position is closed out. These proceeds are listed on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Due from broker. The Fund will not sell a security short if, as a result of such short sale, the aggregate market value of all securities sold short exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. This limitation does not apply to short sales against the box. Until the Fund closes its short position or replaces the borrowed security, the Fund may: (a) segregate cash or liquid securities at such a level that the amount segregated plus the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current value of the security sold short; or (b) otherwise cover the Fund's short position. f) FUTURES CONTRACTS -- The Fund and Subsidiary may enter into futures contracts or related options on futures contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties whereby one party agrees to sell and the other party agrees to buy a specified amount of a financial instrument at an agreed upon price and time. Futures contracts are traded on commodity exchanges or boards of trade (known as "contract markets") approved for such trading and regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. These contract markets standardize the terms, including the maturity date and underlying financial instrument, of all futures contracts. g) SWAP AGREEMENTS -- The Fund may invest in swap agreements as an efficient means to synthetically obtain exposure to securities or baskets of securities and to manage the Fund's interest rate duration and yield curve exposure. Swap contracts may also be used to mitigate the Fund's overall level of risk and/or the Fund's risk to particular types of securities, currencies or market segments. EQUITY SWAPS In a typical equity swap, one party agrees to pay another party the return on a stock, stock index or basket of stocks in return for a specified interest rate. By entering into an equity index swap, for example, the index receiver can gain exposure to stocks making up the index of securities without actually purchasing those stocks. Equity index swaps involve not only the risk associated with investment in the securities represented in the index, but also the risk that the performance of such securities, including dividends, will not exceed the return on the interest rate that the Fund will be committed to pay. 28 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) g) SWAP AGREEMENTS (CONTINUED) -- Swaps are marked-to-market daily and are valued at the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the instrument based upon quotations from counterparties, pricing services, brokers or market makers and the resulting changes in market values, if any, are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Net payments of interest are recorded as realized gains or losses. The equity swaps reset monthly, as such there was $0 unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) as of October 31, 2016. All swaps held by the Fund during the year ended October 31, 2016 had equity risk exposure. h) INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY -- The Fund invests in its own Subsidiary. By investing in the Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary's investments. With respect to its investments, the Subsidiary will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity- linked derivative instruments. The Subsidiary, however, is not registered under the 1940 Act and will not be subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Thus the Fund, as an investor in its own Subsidiary, will not have all of the protections offered to investors in registered investment companies. The Subsidiary commenced operations on September 30, 2015. i) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Code. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements. The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely- than-not" (i.e., greater than 50 percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit in the current year. The Fund did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management's conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., all open tax year ends, since inception), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. 29 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) i) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)-- As of and during the year ended October 31, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized taxable benefits. j) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, DIVIDEND AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on trade date basis for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on the specific identification method. Dividends are recognized on the ex-dividend date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the dividend, net of withholding taxes, if such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discount. Amortization and accretion are calculated using the effective interest method over the holding period of the investment. Realized gains and losses are calculated on the identified cost basis. k) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. Dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. Dollars on the date of valuation. The Fund does not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. l) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- The Fund distributes its net investment income annually and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. All distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date. 30 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 3. INVESTMENTS Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over-the-counter ("OTC"), are valued at the last quoted sale price on an exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, if a security's primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used. If available, money market securities and other debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by recognized independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Such methodologies generally consider such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations. Money market securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. If such prices are not available or determined to not represent the fair value of the security as of the Fund's pricing time, the security will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board of Trustees (the "Board"). Exchange traded options on securities and indices purchased by the Fund or Subsidiary generally are valued at their last trade price or, if there is no last trade price, the last bid price. Exchange-traded options on securities and indices written by the Fund or Subsidiary are generally valued at their last trade price or, if there is no last trade price, the last asked price. In the case of options traded in the OTC market, if the OTC option is also an exchange-traded option, the Fund or Subsidiary will follow the rules regarding the valuation of exchange traded options. If the OTC option is not also an exchange traded option, the Fund or Subsidiary will value the option at fair value in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Futures contracts and options on futures contracts are valued at the last trade price prior to the end of the Fund's or Subsidiary's pricing cycle. Swap contracts held by the Fund or Subsidiary are valued primarily using valuations from independent 31 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 3. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) pricing services. If the valuations cannot be so sourced, then valuations can be based on broker quotations, or if no broker quotations are available, from the swap counterparty or by reference to daily quoted values for the indices or securities upon which the swap contract is valued. In the absence of the above, an appropriate method of valuation will be determined subject to the fair valuation procedures established by the Adviser. Illiquid securities, securities for which reliable quotations or pricing services are not readily available, and all other assets will be valued either at the average of the last bid price of the securities obtained from two or more dealers or otherwise at their respective fair value as determined in good faith by, or under procedures established by the Board. The Board has adopted fair valuation procedures for the Fund and has delegated responsibility for fair value determinations to the Fair Valuation Committee. The members of the Fair Valuation Committee report, as necessary, to the Board regarding portfolio valuation determination. The Board, from time to time, will review these methods of valuation and will recommend changes which may be necessary to assure that the investments of the Fund are valued at fair value. The Subsidiary's assets and liabilities will also be valued in accordance with the methods listed above. The Fund's investment in the Subsidiary is valued at the net asset value of the Subsidiary and the results of the Subsidiary are consolidated into the Fund for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Fund categorizes its investments, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the observability of the inputs to the valuation of the financial asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 -- unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments that the Fund has the ability to access. Level 2 -- observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or the investment either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). These inputs may include quoted prices for 32 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 3. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) an identical investment on an inactive market, prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data. Level 3 -- significant unobservable inputs for the investment to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the investment, and that would be based on the best information available. The Fund's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement. There were no Level 3 assets and liabilities as of and for the year ended October 31, 2016. For the year ended October 31, 2016, there were no transfers between levels. It is the Fund's policy to recognize transfers into and out of levels at the end of the reporting period. For details of the investment classification, refer to the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. TRANSACTIONS During the year ended October 31, 2016, the Fund and Subsidiary purchased 5,952,453 swap contracts and closed 6,302,199 swap contracts for a realized loss of $627,582 with 149,534 swap contracts outstanding. This turnover is inclusive of monthly swap resets, expirations and transactions with the counterparty. The open swap contracts are collateralized by cash, which is included in Cash collateral on derivative contracts on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. During the year ended October 31, 2016, the Fund and Subsidiary purchased 2,970 futures contracts and closed 3,125 futures contracts for a realized loss of $989,621 with 482 futures contracts outstanding. All future contracts held by the Fund are exchange-traded and therefore no right of offset exists. The future contracts were collateralized by cash, which is included in Cash collateral on derivative contracts on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. 33 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 4.

TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES An affiliate of the Adviser holds 77% of the Class I shares as of October 31, 2016. Certain officers of the Fund are also employees of SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the "Administrator"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"). Such officers are paid no fees by the Fund, other than the Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") as described below, for serving as officers of the Fund. 34 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 5. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES (CONTINUED) A portion of the services provided by the CCO and his staff, who are employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Fund as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Fund's advisors and service providers, as required by SEC regulations. The CCO's services and fees are reviewed and approved by the Board. The Fund pays these fees to the Administrator. 6. ADMINISTRATION, CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS The Fund and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Fund. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset based fee, which will vary depending on the number of share classes and the average daily net assets of the Fund, subject to certain minimums. For the year ended October 31, 2016, the Fund paid $165,073 for these services, of which $13,975 was outstanding at October 31, 2016. The Bank of New York Mellon (the "Custodian") serves as the Fund's Custodian pursuant to a custody agreement. Atlantic Shareholder Services, LLC (the "Transfer Agent") serves as the Fund's transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent pursuant to a transfer agency agreement. The Distributor is the principal distributor of shares of the Fund. The Distributor may enter into selected dealer agreements with other selling agents or sub-distributors for the sale and distribution of Fund shares. 7. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee at the annual rate of 1.25% of average net assets. The management fee is applied to the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") (before the deduction of any Incentive Fee and the repurchase of any shares pursuant to a periodic repurchase offer). The management fee is accrued at least weekly and paid monthly, in arrears. The Fund pays the Adviser a performance based incentive fee ("Incentive Fee"), quarterly in arrears, accrued as of the end of each business day, equal to 20.00% of the Investment Profits (as defined below) attributable to each share for such calendar quarter; provided, however, that an Incentive Fee with respect to a share 35 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 7. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (CONTINUED) will be paid only with respect to Investment Profits for the applicable calendar quarter in excess of Un-recouped Investment Losses (as defined below) as of the end of the previous calendar quarter. The term "Investment Profits" refers to an increase in the NAV of a share attributable to the net realized and unrealized gains arising from the Fund's investment activities during the calendar quarter (after deducting (i) interest earned on, and net realized and unrealized gains arising from, the Fund's cash balances and fixed income investments held for cash management purposes during the calendar quarter; and (ii) any management fee accrued during the calendar quarter and after adjusting for any repurchase of shares made during the calendar quarter). The term "Un-recouped Investment Losses" refers to any decrease in the NAV of a share attributable to the net realized and unrealized losses arising from the Fund's investment activities (after deducting (i) interest earned on, and net realized and unrealized gains arising from the Fund's cash balances and fixed income investments held for cash management purposes during the calendar quarter; and (ii) any management fee accrued during the calendar quarter and after adjusting for any repurchase of shares made during the calendar quarter) that have not been offset by subsequent Investment Profits since the formation of the Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep total annual fund operating expenses after fee reductions and/or expense reimbursements (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, dividend and interest expenses on securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, Incentive Fees and non-routine expenses) from exceeding 1.61% of the Fund's average daily net assets until February 28, 2017 (the "Expense Limitation"). This agreement may be terminated: (i) by the Board of the Fund for any reason at any time, or (ii) by the Adviser, upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to the Fund, effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2017. During the year ended October 31, 2016, fees which were waived and/or reimbursed by the Adviser were $335,639. The Subsidiary has entered into a separate investment advisory agreement with the Adviser for the management of the Subsidiary's portfolio. The Subsidiary does not pay a separate management fee to the Adviser for these services. 36 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 8. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income/(loss) and net realized gain/(loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to undistributed net investment income/ (loss), accumulated net realized gain/(loss) or paid-in capital, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. The following permanent differences primarily attributable to swap re-classes, return of capital, net operating loss and foreign currency realized gain/(loss) have been reclassified to/from the following accounts during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2016: $ ---------- Undistributed net investment loss ................ (319,567) Accumulated realized gain ........................ 577,405 Paid-in capital ..................................

FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (CONTINUED) For Federal Income Tax purposes, the Fund may carry forward a net short term capital loss and a net long term capital loss to offset future capital gains, which are not subject to expiration. During the year ended October 31, 2016 the Fund utilized long term capital losses of $28,127 to offset capital gains. Late year loss deferrals represent ordinary losses realized on investment transactions from January 1, 2016 through October 31, 2016, that, in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, the Fund defers and treats as having arisen in the following fiscal year. Other temporary differences are primarily mark to market gain from open futures. 9.

SHARE TRANSACTIONS Class I shares of beneficial interest in the Fund were offered during an initial offering period ending on September 30, 2015. During the initial offering period, Class I shares were offered at the offering price, which was $20.00 per share. Thereafter, the shares are offered on a continuous monthly basis (generally as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the last business day of each month (the "Closing Time"), at the NAV per share at that time. At each Closing Time, purchase orders received in proper form will be accepted by the Fund and deposited monies will be invested in the Fund as of the first business day of the next month following the acceptance of an investor's purchase order. For each investor, the Fund requires 39 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 10. SHARE TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED) a minimum initial investment of $10,000 and minimum subsequent investments of $5,000. The Fund may waive these minimum investment requirements for one or more investors in its sole discretion. Because the Fund will pay the Adviser an incentive fee based on the Fund's performance, each investor must also be a "qualified client" as that term is defined in Rule 205-3 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Class I shares are not listed on any securities exchange. There is no guarantee that a secondary market for Fund shares will develop. In addition, shares are subject to transfer restrictions, including a requirement that shares may be transferred only to persons who meet the Fund's eligibility requirements set forth in the prospectus. Shareholders will not have the right to redeem their shares. However, as described below, in order to provide some liquidity to shareholders, the Fund will conduct periodic repurchase offers for a portion of its outstanding shares. As an interval fund, the Fund will make periodic offers to repurchase a portion of its outstanding shares at NAV per share. The Fund has adopted a fundamental policy, which cannot be changed without shareholder approval, to make repurchase offers once every three months. The pricing date for the Fund's first repurchase offer was March 31, 2016. There were no redemption requests by investors during the year ended October 31, 2016. For each repurchase offer, the Fund will offer to repurchase at least 5% of its total outstanding shares, unless the Fund's Board has approved a higher amount (but not more than 25% of total outstanding shares) for a particular repurchase offer. The Adviser currently expects under normal market circumstances to recommend that, at each repurchase offer, the Fund will offer to repurchase at least 15% of its total outstanding shares, subject to approval of the Board. It is possible that a repurchase offer may be oversubscribed, with the result that shareholders may only be able to have a portion of the shares they request for repurchase actually repurchased. There is no guarantee that the Fund will offer to repurchase more than 5% of its total outstanding shares (including all classes of shares) in any repurchase offer, and there is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell shares in an amount or at the time that they desire. 40 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 10.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS As with all investment companies, shareholders are subject to the risk that investments could lose money. A Fund share is not a bank deposit and it is not insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any government agency. The risk factors affecting investments in the Fund and Subsidiary are set out in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. The nature and the extent of the investments held at October 31, 2016 are set out in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. The Board is responsible for overseeing the Fund's service providers and, thus, has oversight responsibility with respect to risk management performed by those service providers. Each service provider is responsible for one or more discrete aspects of the Fund's business and, consequently, for managing the risks associated with that business. The Fund is subject to the principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund's net asset value and ability to meet its investment objective. a) MARKET RISK -- Market risk is the risk that changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates or equity security prices will affect the positions held by the Fund making them less valuable. The Fund is exposed to market risk on financial instruments that are valued at market prices. The Fund's market risk is monitored on a regular basis by the Adviser in accordance with its policies and procedures. 41 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 11. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) a) MARKET RISK (CONTINUED) -- I) CURRENCY RISK -- As a result of the Fund's and Subsidiary's investments in securities and derivatives denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, non-U.S. currencies, the Fund and Subsidiary will be subject to currency risk. Currency risk is the risk that non-U.S. currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. Dollar, which would adversely affect the U.S. Dollar value of an investment in the Fund and Subsidiary. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate in response to, among other things, changes in interest rates, intervention (or failure to intervene) by U.S. or non-U.S. governments, central banks or supranational entities, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the United States or abroad. II) INTEREST RATE RISK -- Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Fund will invest in U.S. treasuries that will be interest bearing. The Fund and Subsidiary's cash and cash equivalents also will expose them to interest rate risk. III) DERIVATIVES RISK -- The Fund's and Subsidiary's use of futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps will be subject to, inter alia, market risk and correlation risk. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The Fund's and Subsidiary's use of forward contracts and swap agreements is also subject to credit risk and valuation risk. Valuation risk is the risk that the derivative may be difficult to value and/or may be valued incorrectly. Each of these risks could cause the Fund and/or Subsidiary to lose more than the principal amount invested in a derivative instrument. The U.S. Government is in the process of adopting and implementing regulations governing derivatives markets and the ultimate impact of the regulations remains unclear.In addition, the SEC is considering implementing regulations that would govern the use of derivatives by registered investment companies, such as the Fund or Subsidiary, and such new regulations may require the Fund and/or Subsidiary to alter its structure oroperations. IV) OTHER PRICE RISK -- Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of the securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate, derivatives or currency risk), whether caused by factors specific to an individual instrument, its issuer or all the factors affecting all financial instruments in the market. 42 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 11. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) a) MARKET RISK (CONTINUED) -- IV) OTHER PRICE RISK (CONTINUED) -- All investments are valued at fair value, with fair value changes recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. All changes in market prices directly affect net change in net assets resulting from operations in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Net Assets. The Adviser, in accordance with the policies and procedures in place, monitors the risk on a regular basis. b) CREDIT RISK -- Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a security or the counterparty to a contract will default or otherwise become unable to honor a financial obligation. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities will be an estimate of the maximum exposure at the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date. c) LIQUIDITY RISK -- Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund and Subsidiary will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. Exposure to liquidity risk arises because of the possibility that the Fund and/or Subsidiary could be required to pay its liabilities or redeem its shares earlier than expected. d) COUNTERPARTY RISK -- The Fund and Subsidiary will be subject to the risk of the inability of any counterparty (including the Fund's or Subsidiary's custodian and clearing brokers and prime brokers used by the Fund or Subsidiary) to perform with respect to transactions, whether due to insolvency, bankruptcy or other causes. If there is a failure or default by the counterparty to such a transaction, the Fund or Subsidiary will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction but these may be of limited or no legal and/or commercial benefit depending on the financial position of the defaulting counterparty. The Fund and Subsidiary may not be able to recover all of its cash and/or securities in the event of the insolvency and bankruptcy of its custodian. These risks are heightened to the extent that the Fund or the Subsidiary gains a substantial amount of investment exposure indirectly through swaps. e) SUBSIDIARY RISK -- The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act and, unless otherwise noted in the prospectus, is not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Thus, the Fund, as an investor in the Subsidiary, 43 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 11. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) e) SUBSIDIARY RISK (CONTINUED) -- will not have all of the protections offered to investors in registered investment companies. In addition, changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands, or governmental interpretation of such laws, under which the Fund and Subsidiary, respectively, are organized, could result in the inability of the Fund and Subsidiary to operate as intended and could negatively affect the Fund and its shareholders. 12. INDEMNIFICATIONS In the normal course of business the Fund and Subsidiary enter into contracts with third-party service providers that contain a variety of representations and warranties and that provide general indemnifications. Additionally, under the Fund's organizational documents, the officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as it involves possible future claims that may or may not be made against the Fund. Based on experience, the Adviser is of the view that the risk of loss to the Fund in connection with the Fund's indemnification obligations is remote; however, there can be no assurance that such obligations will not result in material liabilities that adversely affect the Fund. 13. REGULATORY MATTERS In October 2016, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") released its Final Rule on Investment Company Reporting Modernization (the "Rule"). The Rule which introduces two new regulatory reporting forms for investment companies -- Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN -- also contains amendments to Regulation S-X which impact financial statement presentation, particularly the presentation of derivative investments. Although still evaluating the impact of the Rule, management believes that many of the Regulation S-X amendments are consistent with the Fund's current financial statement presentation and expects that the Fund will be able to comply with the Rule's Regulation S-X amendments by the August 1, 2017 compliance date. 14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Fund has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financials were issued. Based on this evaluation, no disclosures and/or adjustments were required to the consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2016. 44 Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund [LOGO OMITTED] For the year ended October 31, 2016 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund: We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") (and subsidiary), including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statement of operations for the year ending October 31, 2016, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets and consolidated financial highlights for the year ended October 31, 2016 and for the period September 30, 2015 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2015. The consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes 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, the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund (and subsidiary) as of October 31, 2016, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods presented in the first paragraph, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

KPMG billed the Fund aggregate fees for services rendered to the Trust for the last two fiscal years as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fiscal Year 2016 Fiscal Year 2015 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All fees and All fees and All other All fees and All fees and All other services to services to fees and services to services to fees and the Registrant service services to the Registrant service services to that were affiliates that service that were affiliates that service pre- were pre- affiliates that pre- were pre- affiliates that approved approved did not require approved approved did not require pre-approval pre-approval ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (a) Audit $56,650 $0 $0 $55,000 N/A N/A Fees(1) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (b) Audit- $0 $0 $0 N/A N/A N/A Related Fees ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (c) Tax $6,300 $0 $0 $8,500 N/A N/A Fees ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (d) All $0 $0 $0 N/A N/A N/A Other Fees(2) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(e)(1) The Fund's Audit Committee has adopted and the Board of Trustees has ratified an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Policy"), which sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor of the Fund may be pre-approved. The Policy provides that all requests or applications for proposed services to be provided by the independent auditor must be submitted to the Registrant's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and must include a detailed description of the services proposed to be rendered. The CFO will determine whether such services: (1) require specific pre-approval; (2) are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee pursuant to the Policy; or (3) have been previously pre-approved in connection with the independent auditor's annual engagement letter for the applicable year or otherwise. In any instance where services require pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with SEC's rules and whether the provision of such services would impair the auditor's independence. Requests or applications to provide services that require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by the CFO. The Audit Committee will be informed by the CFO on a quarterly basis of all services rendered by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has delegated specific pre-approval authority to either the Audit Committee Chair or financial expert, provided that the estimated fee for any such proposed pre-approved service does not exceed $100,000 and any pre-approval decisions are reported to the Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. Services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee are identified and described in the Policy. In addition, the Policy sets forth a maximum fee per engagement with respect to each identified service that has received general pre-approval. All services to be provided by the independent auditor shall be provided pursuant to a signed written engagement letter with the Registrant, the investment advisor or applicable control affiliate (except that matters as to which an engagement letter would be impractical because of timing issues or because the matter is small may not be the subject of an engagement letter) that sets forth both the services to be provided by the independent auditor and the total fees to be paid to the independent auditor for those services. In addition, the Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet its responsibility to oversee the work of the independent auditor and to assure the auditor's independence from the Registrant, such as reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditor delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Registrant, and discussing with the independent auditor its methods and procedures for ensuring independence. (e)(2) Percentage of fees billed by KPMG to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows: ---------------------------------------------------- 2016 2015 ---------------------------------------------------- Audit-Related Fees 0% 0% ---------------------------------------------------- Tax Fees 0% 0% ---------------------------------------------------- All Other Fees 0% 0% ---------------------------------------------------- (f) Not applicable. (g) The aggregate non-audit fees and services billed by KPMG for fiscal years 2016 and 2015 for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to the Registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant for the last two fiscal years was $6,300 and $8,500, respectively. (h) During the past fiscal year, all non-audit services provided by Registrant's principal accountant to either Registrant's investment adviser or to any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Registrant's investment adviser that provides ongoing services to Registrant were pre-approved by the audit committee of Registrant's Board of Trustees. Included in the audit committee's pre-approval was the review and consideration as to whether the provision of these non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence. ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS. Not applicable to open-end management investment companies. ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS Schedule of Investments is included as part of the Report to Shareholders filed under Item 1 of this form. Item 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES. The Fund has adopted the following procedures regarding this matter: 1. Proxy Voting Responsibility - The Fund has delegated proxy voting responsibility to the Adviser. The Adviser's proxy voting policies and procedures are included Appendix B to the Fund's SAI. 2. Compliance Responsibility - The Adviser is responsible for monitoring compliance with its policy and procedures. The Fund's administrator is responsible for filing Form N-PX with the SEC pursuant to Rule 30b1-4 under the 1940 Act. 3. Disclosure - The Fund's administrator and counsel are responsible for ensuring that appropriate disclosure is made in the Fund's prospectus and SAI. ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES (a)(1) Fund Management Winton Capital US LLC (the "Adviser") does not use a traditional portfolio manager structure when managing its clients' accounts, including the Fund. Rather, the Adviser employs a professional research team to perform statistical analysis on historical data related to financial markets in an attempt to identify profitable investment opportunities for its clients. The Adviser's research team includes individuals holding degrees in diverse fields ranging from astrophysics, machine learning, statistics, actuarial sciences and financial mathematics and is responsible for developing the Investment System that forms the basis of the Fund's investment strategy. Messr. Harding , in his capacity as Chief Executive Officer of Winton Capital Group Limited, has ultimate responsibility for the Investment System and how it operates. Therefore, Messr. Harding is primarily responsible for the management of the Fund's portfolio. Mr. Harding founded Winton in 1997. (a)(2) Other Accounts Managed by Fund Management and Potential Conflicts of Interest In addition to the Fund, Messr. Harding is responsible for the day-to-day advisement of certain other accounts, as listed below ("Other Accounts"). The information below is provided as of October 31, 2015 and excludes accounts where Winton has advisory but not discretionary authority.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTERED OTHER POOLED INVESTMENT COMPANIES INVESTMENT VEHICLES OTHER ACCOUNTS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NUMBER NUMBER NUMBER OF TOTAL ASSETS OF TOTAL ASSETS(1) OF TOTAL ASSETS NAME ACCOUNTS ($ MILLIONS) ACCOUNTS ($ MILLIONS) ACCOUNTS ($ MILLIONS) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Winton Harding 2 $47.3 61(1) $31,105(1) 8(2) $1,013(2) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Includes 59 accounts with assets under advisement of approximately $32,964 million that are subject to performance- based advisory fees. (2) Includes 3 accounts with assets under advisement of approximately $423.7 million that are subject to performance-based advisory fees. CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS. A potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of Winton's provision of advisory services to Other Accounts. Other Accounts may pay higher management fees and/or performance fees than the Fund, and this could create an incentive for Winton to favor such funds in the allocation of investment opportunities. Winton has implemented procedures that are designed to ensure that investment opportunities are allocated in a manner that: (i) treats all of its clients fairly and equitably; (ii) prevents conflict regarding allocation of investment opportunities among its clients; and (iii) complies with applicable regulatory requirements. For example, Winton uses an allocation algorithm designed to allocate all filled orders ratably based on a defined allocation procedure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an aggregated order may be allocated on a different basis under certain circumstances depending on factors which include, but are not limited to, available cash, liquidity requirements, risk parameters and legal and/or regulatory requirements. Winton and its investment personnel may hold investments in Other Accounts. This may create an incentive for Winton and its investment personnel to take investment actions based on those investment interests which might diverge, in some cases, from the interests of other clients or favor or disfavor certain funds over other funds. Any potential conflict that arises from these circumstances is mitigated by several factors, including: (i) the requirement that any material changes to Winton's investment system must be tested, reviewed and approved by Winton's investment management meeting; (ii) the fact that Winton's investment system is designed to achieve long-term capital appreciation as opposed to short-term profits; and (iii) the fact that most of Winton's investments are made in accordance with the signals produced by its investment system. Certain broker-dealers that Winton may use to execute Fund transactions are also clients of Winton and/or may refer clients to Winton, which creates potential conflicts of interest. These conflicts are addressed by the fact that Winton adheres to a policy that prohibits Winton from considering any factor other than best execution for its clients when Winton executes client transactions. (a)(3) Compensation Structure of Fund Management Team Compensation for Messr. Harding includes a fixed salary. Compensation is assessed in accordance with a remuneration policy (designed to support key business strategies without creating incentives for undue risk-taking) and is subject to approval by a remuneration committee chaired by an independent non-executive director of Winton. (a)(4) Disclosure of Securities Ownership The Fund is required to show the dollar amount range of Messr. Harding's "beneficial ownership" of shares of the Fund as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year. Dollar amount ranges disclosed are established by the SEC. "Beneficial ownership" is determined in accordance with Rule 16a-1(a)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"). As of the date this filing, Messr. Harding did not beneficially own shares of the Fund. (b) Not applicable. ITEM 9. PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT COMPANY AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS. Not applicable. ITEM 10. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. There have been no changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant's Board of Trustees during the period covered by this report. Item 11. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. (a) The Registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions have concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the Act (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c)) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of the report, are effective based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the Act (17 CFR 270.30a-3(b)) and Rules 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 270.30a-15(b) or 240.15d-15(b)). (b) There has been no change in the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Act (17CFR 270.3a-3(d)) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

INTRODUCTION The reputation and integrity of The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund, The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund II, The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund III, Bishop Street Funds, KP Funds Winton Series Trust, Winton Diversified Opportunities Fund and Gallery Trust, (each a "Trust" and, collectively, the "Trusts") are valuable assets that are vital to the each Trust's success. The Trusts' senior financial officers ("SFOs") are responsible for conducting the Trusts' business in a manner that demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards of integrity. The Trusts' SFOs include the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, comptroller or principal accounting officer, and any person who performs a similar function. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act") effected sweeping corporate disclosure and financial reporting reform on public companies, including mutual funds, to address corporate malfeasance and assure investors that the companies in which they invest are accurately and completely disclosing financial information. Under the Act, all public companies (including the Trusts) must either have a code of ethics for their SFOs, or disclose why they do not. The Act was intended to foster corporate environments which encourage employees to question and report unethical and potentially illegal business practices. Each Trust has chosen to adopt this Financial Officer Code of Ethics (the "Code") to encourage its SFOs to act in a manner consistent with the highest principles of ethical conduct. II. PURPOSES OF THE CODE The purposes of this Code are: o To promote honest and ethical conduct by each Trust's SFOs, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; o To assist each Trust's SFOs in recognizing and avoiding conflicts of interest, including disclosing to an appropriate person any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict; o To promote full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Trusts file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Trusts; o To promote compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations; o To encourage the prompt internal reporting to an appropriate person of violations of this Code; and o To establish accountability for adherence to this Code. III. QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS CODE Each Trust's compliance officer designated to oversee compliance with the Trust's Code of Ethics adopted pursuant to Rule 17j-1 shall serve as Compliance Officer for the implementation and administration of this Code. You should direct your questions about this Code to the Compliance Officer. IV. CONDUCT GUIDELINES Each Trust has adopted the following guidelines under which the Trust's SFOs must perform their official duties and conduct the business affairs of the Trust. 1. ETHICAL AND HONEST CONDUCT IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE. Each Trust's SFOs must act with honesty and integrity and avoid violations of this Code, including the avoidance of actual or apparent conflicts of interest with the Trust in personal and professional relationships. 2. SFOS MUST DISCLOSE MATERIAL TRANSACTIONS OR RELATIONSHIPS. Each Trust's SFOs must disclose to the Compliance Officer any actual or apparent conflicts of interest the SFO may have with the Trust that reasonably could be expected to give rise to any violations of this Code. Such conflicts of interest may arise as a result of material transactions or business or personal relationships to which the SFO may be a party. If it is not possible to disclose the matter to the Compliance Officer, it should be disclosed to the Trust's Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer or another appropriate person. In addition to disclosing any actual or apparent conflicts of interest in which an SFO is personally involved, the Trusts' SFOs have an obligation to report any other actual or apparent conflicts which they discover or of which they otherwise become aware. If you are unsure whether a particular fact pattern gives rise to a conflict of interest, or whether a particular transaction or relationship is "material," you should bring the matter to the attention of the Compliance Officer. 3. STANDARDS FOR QUALITY OF INFORMATION SHARED WITH SERVICE PROVIDERS OF THE TRUSTS. Each Trust's SFOs must at all times seek to provide information to the Trust's service providers (adviser, administrator, outside auditor, outside counsel, custodian, etc.) that is accurate, complete, objective, relevant, timely, and understandable. 4. STANDARDS FOR QUALITY OF INFORMATION INCLUDED IN PERIODIC REPORTS. Each Trust's SFOs must at all times endeavor to ensure full, fair, timely, accurate, and understandable disclosure in the Trust's periodic reports. 5. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Each Trust's SFOs must comply with the federal securities laws and other laws and rules applicable to the Trusts, such as the Internal Revenue Code. 6. STANDARD OF CARE. Each Trust's SFOs must at all times act in good faith and with due care, competence and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or allowing your independent judgment to be subordinated. Each Trust's SFOs must conduct the affairs of the Trust in a responsible manner, consistent with this Code. 7. CONFIDENTIALITY OF INFORMATION. Each Trust's SFOs must respect and protect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of their professional duties, except when authorized by the Trust to disclose it or where disclosure is otherwise legally mandated. You may not use confidential information acquired in the course of your work for personal advantage. 8. SHARING OF INFORMATION AND EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS. Each Trust's SFOs should share information with relevant parties to keep them informed of the business affairs of the Trust, as appropriate, and maintain skills important and relevant to the Trust's needs. 9. PROMOTE ETHICAL CONDUCT. Each Trust's SFOs should at all times proactively promote ethical behavior among peers in your work environment. 10. STANDARDS FOR RECORDKEEPING. Each Trust's SFOs must at all times endeavor to ensure that the Trust's financial books and records are thoroughly and accurately maintained to the best of their knowledge in a manner consistent with applicable laws and this Code. V. WAIVERS OF THIS CODE You may request a waiver of a provision of this Code by submitting your request in writing to the Compliance Officer for appropriate review. For example, if a family member works for a service provider that prepares a Trust's financial statements, you may have a potential conflict of interest in reviewing those statements and should seek a waiver of this Code to review the work. An executive officer of each Trust, or another appropriate person (such as a designated Board or Audit Committee member), will decide whether to grant a waiver. All waivers of this code must be disclosed to the applicable Trust's shareholders to the extent required by SEC rules. VI. AFFIRMATION OF THE CODE Upon adoption of the Code, each Trust's SFOs must affirm in writing that they have received, read and understand the Code, and annually thereafter must affirm that they have complied with the requirements of the Code. To the extent necessary, each Trust's Compliance Officer will provide guidance on the conduct required by this Code and the manner in which violations or suspected violations must be reported and waivers must be requested. VII. REPORTING VIOLATIONS In the event that an SFO discovers or, in good faith, suspects a violation of this Code, the SFO must immediately report the violation or suspected violation to the Compliance Officer. The Compliance Officer may, in his or her discretion, consult with another member of the Trust's senior management or the Board in determining how to address the suspected violation. For example, a Code violation may occur when a periodic report or financial statement of a Trust omits a material fact, or is technically accurate but, in the view of the SFO, is written in a way that obscures its meaning. SFOs who report violations or suspected violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation of any kind. Reported violations will be investigated and addressed promptly and will be treated as confidential to the extent possible. VIII. VIOLATIONS OF THE CODE Dishonest or unethical conduct or conduct that is illegal will constitute a violation of this Code, regardless of whether this Code specifically refers to such particular conduct. A violation of this Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including removal as an SFO of the Trust. A variety of laws apply to the Trusts and their operations, including the Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, state laws relating to duties owed by Trust officers, and criminal laws. The Trusts will report any suspected criminal violations to the appropriate authorities, and will investigate, address and report, as appropriate, non-criminal violations. Dated: September 2015
