All investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) carefully before investing. The prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund. You can obtain a prospectus and, if available, a summary prospectus, from the Fund’s website (www.blackstone.com/bamsf). All investors are urged to carefully read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, in its entirety before investing. Interests in the Fund are offered through Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P., a member of FINRA and an affiliate of Blackstone Alternative Asset Management L.P.
Important Risks: An investment in the Fund should be considered a speculative investment that entails substantial risks; you may lose part or all of your investment or your investment may not perform as well as other investments. The Fund’s investments involve special risks including, but not limited to, loss of all or a significant portion of the investment due to leveraging, short-selling, or other speculative practices, lack of liquidity and volatility of returns. The following is a summary description of certain additional principal risks of investing in the Fund:
Allocation Risk - Blackstone’s judgment about the attractiveness, value or market trends affecting a particular asset class, investment style, sub-adviser or security may be incorrect and this may have a negative impact upon performance. Debt Securities Risk - investments in debt securities, such as bonds and certain asset-backed securities involve certain risks which may cause the securities to lose value, including credit risk, extension risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, and variable and floating rate instrument risk. Derivatives Risk - the use of derivatives involves the risk that their value may not move as expected relative to the value of the relevant underlying assets, rates, or indices. Derivatives can be volatile and illiquid, can be subject to counterparty credit risk, and may entail investment exposure greater than their notional amount. Distressed Securities Risk - investments in securities of business enterprises involved in workouts, liquidations, reorganizations, bankruptcies and similar situations involve a high degree of risk of loss since there is typically substantial uncertainty concerning the outcome of such situations. Equity Securities Risk - there is a risk of loss associated with price fluctuations of equity and preferred securities which change based on a company’s financial condition and overall market and economic environment. Event-Driven Trading Risk - involves the risk that the specific event identified may not occur as anticipated and that this may have a negative impact upon the market price of the securities involved. Foreign Investments/Emerging Markets Risk - involves special risks caused by foreign political, social and economic factors, including exposure to currency fluctuations, less liquidity, less developed and less efficient trading markets, political instability and less developed legal and auditing standards. High Portfolio Turnover Risk - active trading of securities can increase transaction costs (thus lowering performance) and taxable distributions. Model and Technology Risk - involves the risk that model-based strategies, data gathering systems, order execution and trade allocation systems and risk management systems may not be successful on an ongoing basis or could contains errors, omissions, imperfections or malfunctions. Multi-Manager Risk - managers may make investment decisions which conflict with each other and as a result, the Fund could incur transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result.
BLACKSTONE ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT FUNDS
Dear Blackstone Investor,
We are pleased to present this annual shareholder report for Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds (“BAIF”) and its series, the Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”). This report includes portfolio commentary, a listing of the Fund’s investments and the Fund’s audited financial statements. Audited financial statements for the Fund cover the period from April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2017 (the “Reporting Period”).
The Fund’s investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Fund seeks this objective by allocating its assets among a variety of nontraditional, or “alternative,” investment strategies. Blackstone Alternative Investment Advisors LLC (the “Investment Adviser” or “BAIA”) determines the allocations of the Fund’s assets and allocates a majority of the Fund’s assets among investment sub-advisers with experience managing alternative investment strategies and among investment funds. Each discretionary sub-adviser is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund’s assets that the Investment Adviser allocates to it. Subject to oversight by the Board of Trustees, the Investment Adviser is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating and/or replacing the Fund’s investment sub-advisers, and it may also manage a portion of the Fund’s assets directly. In pursuing the Fund’s investment objective, the Fund seeks to maintain an investment portfolio with, on average, lower volatility relative to the broader equity markets, as measured by the S&P 500 Index.
Fund Performance1
The Fund’s hedge fund strategies had a strong showing over the Reporting Period, with the Fund outperforming the broader hedge fund universe2 by nearly 2%. As a result of our top-down asset allocation views, we reduced directional equity exposures and captured attractive opportunities in credit over the course of a turbulent 2016 and early 2017. Going into the rest of 2017 and 2018, we intend to continue to leverage our due diligence, risk management, and investment expertise from our 27 years’ experience in hedge fund investing to identify alternative investment strategies and investment sub-advisers that we believe may help the Fund achieve its objective.
During the Reporting Period, the Fund generated a cumulative return, net of fees and expenses, of 8.03%3 and realized an annualized volatility of 2.40%4 with a Sharpe ratio5 of 3.22. Over the same period, the HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index, a measure of hedge fund performance, returned 6.19%; the MSCI World Total Return Index, a measure of global equity market performance, returned 15.43%; the S&P 500 Index, a measure of U.S. equity market performance, returned 17.17%; and the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index, a measure of U.S. investment grade bond performance, returned -1.90%.
1 | The volatility of the indices presented may be materially different from that of the performance of the Fund. In addition, the indices employ different investment guidelines and criteria than the Fund; as a result, the holdings in the Fund may differ significantly from the securities that comprise the indices. The performance of the indices has not been selected to represent an appropriate benchmark to compare to the performance of the Fund, but rather is disclosed to allow for comparison of the Fund’s performance to that of well-known and widely recognized indices. A summary of the investment guidelines for the indices presented are available upon request. In the case of equity indices, performance of the indices reflects the reinvestment of dividends. |

3 | Past performance is not indicative of future results and there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its objectives or avoid significant losses. Returns are shown net of fees and expenses. |
4 | “Volatility” refers to the standard deviation of returns. Standard deviation is a measure of how spread out a set of data is from its mean. |
5 | “Sharpe ratio” is a measure of a fund’s risk-adjusted returns. |

Portfolio Managers
In keeping with its historical approach to team-based portfolio management, the Investment Adviser has designated each of the members of the BAIA Investment Committee as a portfolio manager of the Fund. Effective April 15, 20166, the list of portfolio managers is as follows:
• | Gideon Berger |
• | Robert Jordan |
• | David Mehenny |
• | Ian Morris |
• | Alberto Santulin |
• | Stephen Sullens |
Portfolio Commentary
The fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 witnessed extraordinary political vicissitudes, both domestically and abroad, which roiled markets in the face of the unexpected. In June, Britons’ surprise ‘Brexit’ vote to leave the European Union shocked markets and sent the pound sterling tumbling to thirty-year lows. Just a few months later, after a gloves-off primary fight, Donald Trump upset Hillary Clinton in November’s U.S. Presidential election, which equity markets greeted with a strong rally well into the New Year as investors flocked to equities on high hopes of pro-growth policy coming out of the newly Republican Congress and White House. More recently, congressional Republicans bungled an attempt to scrap Barack Obama’s signature healthcare law, a sign that other growth-oriented policy initiatives—notably, tax reform—could prove considerably more challenging than initially expected. Meanwhile, back across the pond, Euro-skeptic rhetoric in the Dutch and French elections had investors on alert, as Brexit remains fresh in mind with Britain formally initiating divorce proceedings from the E.U. in March.
Amidst the political turmoil, the outlook for hedge fund strategies has improved, since geopolitical volatility and potential regulatory shifts may produce an attractive environment for active managers. In addition, 2016’s record passive investment inflows may afford active managers increasing opportunities to capture dislocations between market valuations and company fundamentals. In seeking capital appreciation over the fiscal year, the Fund both protected capital against the equity market’s downward moves and captured an increasing portion of the equity market’s upside: for the Reporting Period, the Fund experienced only 5% of the global equity market’s downside but benefitted from 18% of its upside.7 Indeed, for the most recent quarter, upside capture increased to 26% and downside capture dropped into negative territory, meaning that, on average, the Fund was up when stocks were down.
Over the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Equity strategies contributed positively to performance. While Equity Market Neutral sub-strategies faced headwinds in the first half of the fiscal year, the latter half proved considerably better. Sector-wise, short exposures in materials and telecom plus overweight positioning in underperforming financial exposure detracted from performance early in the year, offset to some degree by some positive alpha later from exposure to financials and healthcare. Over the last few months of the year, long technology exposure drove performance after having detracted earlier in the year on both the long and short side of the book. In the lead up to and aftermath of the U.S. presidential election, sector dispersion created opportunities for equity managers, with positive returns coming from materials, information technology, and healthcare sector exposures. Managed care exposures, however, retraced some gains in the
aftermath of the GOP’s failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. Overall, given the improving

environment for alpha8 generation, we are optimistic that our equity managers are potentially well-positioned to capture opportunities as they arise.
Credit strategies contributed the most to the Fund’s positive returns over the Reporting Period, with all sub-strategies contributing positively to performance on the year. Asset-backed strategies experienced strong performance over the Reporting Period as a result of positive carry and higher mark-to-market moves. On the corporate credit side, market weakness early in the year due to excessive issuance, volatility, anticipated interest rate hikes, and slowing global growth caused redemptions and outflows in the market, which led to forced sales of attractive risk across the corporate credit spectrum. As we mentioned in last year’s letter, we were bullish on the opportunity for liquidity providers to capture excess spread, and our thesis paid off: over the first half of 2016, we roughly tripled the Fund’s allocation to corporate credit strategies, which performed quite well over the duration of the year. As the Federal Reserve raised interest rates twice over the second half of the Reporting Period, increased demand for floating rate credit instruments drove appreciation in tranches of collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). In addition, the Fund benefitted from a rally in government-sponsored enterprise credit risk transfer bonds9, exposure to which the Fund increased over the Reporting Period.
The Fund’s Multi-Asset strategies serve an important role in the portfolio on account of their historically lower correlations to traditional equity and credit markets and may offer diversification benefits to the overall portfolio. During the Reporting Period, Multi-Asset strategies collectively posted gains, with uncorrelated returns deriving from idiosyncratic exposures in emerging markets and market neutral quantitative exposures. Long sovereign and quasi-sovereign credit exposure to Greece, Venezuela, and Argentina drove gains largely due to positive local political and macroeconomic developments. The Fund also benefitted from the Mexican peso’s 11% rally in 2017, coming back from the lows it hit in the wake of President Trump’s election. Factor-based strategies had mixed performance on the year. A rally in momentum strategies early in the year gave way to weakness at the tail-end of 2016 as long U.S. Treasuries and short U.S. dollar exposures generated losses as the latter strengthened in the wake of the election; at the outset of 2017, however, strength among fixed income and FX value strategies concluded the fiscal year on a positive note. Looking ahead, we anticipate that continued geopolitical volatility may afford attractive opportunities to macro-focused strategies, which we continue to explore as we think about asset allocation over the coming year.
During the Reporting Period, the Investment Adviser terminated three sub-advisers10 to the Fund: Blackstone Senfina Advisors L.L.C. (Equity Hedge strategy), Rail-Splitter Capital Management, LLC (Equity Hedge strategy), and Wellington Management Company LLP (Equity Hedge strategy). Sub-adviser terminations are normal events in the Investment Adviser’s investment process and result from our dynamic top-down evaluation of the opportunity set for hedge fund strategies as well as the bottom-up evaluation of a manager’s ability to deliver alpha in a given environment. When done well, value may be generated by making the right top-down calls on which asset classes are attractive in a given environment and increasing the Fund’s exposure to those asset classes. For more information on the Fund’s sub-advisers, please refer to their profiles available on the Fund’s website.
Looking forward to the remainder of 2017 and into 2018, as the new Trump administration continues to take the reins in Washington, we expect to see elevated volatility and continued dispersion among stocks, sectors, and geographies. We anticipate that this diminishing correlation may provide active managers ample opportunities to pick winners and losers, thereby increasing the potential to generate alpha. However, as we have noted previously, we remain attuned to the possibility of a recession at some point in the coming year.
8 | “Alpha” is a measure of risk-adjusted performance which captures risk attributable to the specific security or portfolio rather than the overall market. A high alpha value implies that the investment has performed better than would have been expected relative to the overall market (beta). It is often called the “excess return” on an investment above a benchmark index or “risk free” rate of return. |
9 | The Fund invested in credit risk transfer bonds issued by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, which reference pools of large, diversified fixed-rate mortgage loans. |
10 | As a technical matter, we also terminated AlphaParity, LLC (Macro strategy) and hired FT AlphaParity, LLC (Macro strategy) due to its change of control. The latter entity represents the same investment team as that of the former. |

The current economic expansion—the third longest since World War II—is approaching eight years, whereas the average period of U.S. economic expansion in the post-War period is five years and the longest expansion in U.S. history was ten years. In addition, over the past few months, there has been a divergence between ‘soft’ data—survey measures of consumer outlook—and ‘hard’ data—more concrete quantitative measures of economic health. While ‘soft data’ measures, such as the University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment metric and the Conference Board’s consumer confidence index, have spiked in recent months, ‘hard’ data metrics like retail consumer spending, home sales, and GDP have remained uninspiring, suggesting some discrepancy between consumer views and reality. Indeed, U.S. equities, which climbed higher since November’s U.S. presidential election, have dislocated from fundamentals as investors piled into the markets. With the S&P 500 trading at over 21x trailing twelve month earnings—almost five times more than the ten-year average of 16x—a market correction may be looming. Therefore, we remain cautious of equity beta11, which we have lowered in the Fund over the fiscal year by reducing allocations to strategies with higher market directionality. As measured by our one-year beta to the MSCI World Total Return Index, we maintain low levels of directional equity risk at 0.13 in pursuit of our objective of capital appreciation.
We retain high conviction in the Fund’s sub-advisers and continue to manage the portfolio dynamically, allocating to strategies that we believe have attractive alpha generation potential in the current environment. In spite of uncertainty as to what the coming year may hold, we remain confident in investment strategies that are both diversified and hedged by nature and that offer alpha generation potential through security selection and strategic asset allocation.
We appreciate your choosing to invest with us, and we look forward to serving you for years to come.
Sincerely,

11 | “Beta” is a measure of the sensitivity of a fund’s return to the return of an index. If the beta = 1, then the return will move with that of the index. If the beta is > 1, the return is more volatile than the index whereas if the beta is < 1, the return is less volatile than the index. |

Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
1. Organization
Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds (the “Trust”) is a Massachusetts business trust authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, which may be divided into different series and classes. The Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust consists of a single series, Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund is a non-diversified fund that commenced operations offering Class I Shares on June 16, 2014. The Fund also offers Class D Shares, Class Y Shares and Class R Shares, of which, Class D Shares and Class Y Shares commenced operations on November 17, 2014 and January 28, 2015, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, the Fund had not issued any Class R Shares.
The investment adviser of the Fund is Blackstone Alternative Investment Advisors LLC (“BAIA” or the “Investment Adviser”), a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each member a “Trustee”) of the Trust supervises the conduct of the Fund’s affairs and, pursuant to an investment management agreement, has engaged BAIA to manage the Fund’s day-to-day investment activities. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Investment Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s objectives by allocating the Fund’s assets among a variety of non-traditional, or “alternative,” investment strategies. The Investment Adviser determines the allocations of the Fund’s assets and allocates a majority of the Fund’s assets among the sub-advisers (the “Sub-Advisers”) with experience managing alternative investment strategies and among investment funds, and may also manage a portion of the Fund’s assets directly. Each discretionary Sub-Adviser is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund’s assets that the Investment Adviser allocates to it. The Investment Adviser has the responsibility to oversee each Sub-Adviser (subject to the oversight of the Board).
The Fund’s assets may be invested in three wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries of the Fund (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), each of which has the same investment objective as the Fund. One of the Fund’s Subsidiaries, Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund II Ltd. (the “Cayman Subsidiary”), is a Cayman Islands exempted company. Both of the other Subsidiaries, Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund III L.L.C. (the “Domestic Subsidiary III”) and Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund IV L.L.C. (the “Domestic Subsidiary IV”), are Delaware limited liability companies. The Cayman Subsidiary invests, directly or indirectly through the use of derivatives, in securities and commodity interests. The Domestic Subsidiary III and the Domestic Subsidiary IV invest, directly or indirectly through the use of derivatives, almost entirely in securities (with only de minimis exposure to commodity interests). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Fund and the three Subsidiaries. Except where context otherwise requires, the term “Fund” refers to the Fund together with the applicable Subsidiaries.
The Fund and the Cayman Subsidiary are each a commodity pool subject to regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). BAIA, the commodity pool operator of the Fund and the Cayman Subsidiary, is registered as such with the CFTC, but has claimed relief under Rules 4.12(c)(3) and 4.7 of the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”), respectively, from certain disclosure, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements otherwise applicable to commodity pools. Neither the Domestic Subsidiary III nor the Domestic Subsidiary IV intends to invest more than a de minimis level of its net assets in “commodity interests” (as defined under the CEA). Accordingly, BAIA has claimed an exemption under Rule 4.13(a)(3) from registration as a commodity pool operator with respect to the Domestic Subsidiary III and the Domestic Subsidiary IV, and such pools are not subject to regulation by the CFTC.
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Prospectus of the Fund.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
2. Basis of Presentation
The Fund’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are stated in U.S. dollars, except as otherwise noted. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and these differences could be material.
The Fund is an investment company in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), which defines investment companies and prescribes specialized accounting and reporting requirements for investment companies.
Consolidation
The Fund consolidates its investment in the Subsidiaries. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the Subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
The net asset value (“NAV”) of the Fund’s shares is calculated as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 pm Eastern Time) on each day that the NYSE is open for business (a “Business Day”).
Valuation Policy
For purposes of calculating the NAV for each class of shares, the Fund values its investments in securities, securities sold short, derivative financial instruments and other investments at fair value. The Board has established procedures for determining the fair value of securities, including securities sold short, derivative financial instruments and other investments (together, the “investments”) (the “Valuation Procedures”). The Board has delegated to the Investment Adviser day-to-day responsibility for implementing the Valuation Procedures. The Investment Adviser’s management has formed the Fair Value Committee (the “FVC”), to which the Board has delegated responsibility for providing oversight of the valuation and pricing function of the Fund for all investments. Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, if market quotations are not readily available (or are otherwise not reliable for a particular investment), the fair value will be determined, by the FVC, in good faith, and such determinations shall be reported to the Board. Due to the inherent uncertainty, estimates of fair value may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed and the differences could be material.
Market quotes are considered not readily available in circumstances where there is an absence of current or reliable market-based data (e.g., trade information, bid/ask information, or broker-dealer quotations), including where events occur after the close of the relevant market, but prior to the close of the NYSE, that materially affect the value of the Fund’s investments. In addition, market quotes are considered not readily available when, due to extraordinary circumstances, the exchanges or markets on which securities trade do not open for trading for the entire day and no other market prices are available. The Board has delegated to the FVC and the Investment Adviser the responsibility for monitoring significant events that may materially affect the values of the Fund’s investments and for determining whether the value of the applicable investments should be re-evaluated in light of such significant events. There were no instances of such determination made during the year ended March 31, 2017.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following levels within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1 – quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the measurement date. The Fund does not adjust the quoted price for these investments.
The types of investments categorized within Level 1 generally include actively traded domestic and certain foreign equity securities, short-term investments and derivative financial instruments actively traded on recognized exchanges.
Level 2 – quoted prices are available in markets that are not active or model inputs are based on inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date.
The types of investments categorized within Level 2 generally include certain foreign equities; fixed income securities including corporate and convertible bonds, loans, trade claims, sovereign debt obligations, U.S. Treasury obligations, and asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities; over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative financial instruments such as total return swaps, interest rate swaps, credit default swaps, OTC options; and forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“Forwards”).
Level 3 – pricing inputs are unobservable and include instances where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. Inputs reflect the best estimate of what market participants would use in determining fair value of investments as of the measurement date.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level within the fair value hierarchy.
A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Fund’s major categories of investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Exchange-Traded Securities
Equity securities, including common stock, listed preferred stock, exchange-traded funds, and derivative financial instruments, such as futures contracts and option contracts, that are traded on a recognized securities exchange or on the NASDAQ Global Market System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last reported sales price (or the official closing price of certain foreign exchanges) or the NASDAQ official closing price, as
165
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
applicable. For securities traded on more than one exchange, the last reported sales price on the exchange where the security is primarily traded is used. To the extent these securities and derivative financial instruments are actively traded and adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
The Fund may use a third-party fair valuation service provider to value foreign equity securities that are primarily traded outside of North America and South America. The third-party fair valuation service provider calculates a factor (“Fair Value Factor”) that is applied to adjust the last price of each such security in the event that there is movement in excess of a specified trigger (“Fair Value Trigger”), as measured by the movement between the prior close and the current close of the U.S. market. Foreign equities for which the last price has been adjusted by such factor will generally be categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2017, no such adjustments have been made.
Short-Term Investments
The Fund considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less when acquired to be short-term investments. At March 31, 2017, the Fund had $321,368,510 invested in State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund (GVMXX—Premier Class). Investments in money market funds are categorized as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy and are valued at net asset value.
Effective October 14, 2016, money market funds are required to comply with certain rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in July 2014. The rules establish new definitions for money market fund classifications and certain money market funds are required to move from a stable $1.00 price per share to a floating net asset value. Money market funds that meet certain criteria can maintain a fixed $1.00 share price. The State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund invests only in obligations issued or guaranteed as to principal and/or interest, as applicable, by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, as well as repurchase agreements secured by such instruments and maintains a fixed $1.00 share price. Additionally, the State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund is not subject to liquidity fees or redemption gates.
Derivative Financial Instruments
OTC derivative financial instruments, such as Forwards, OTC options contracts, or swap agreements, derive their value from underlying referenced instruments or obligations, indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination thereof. These contracts are normally valued by pricing service providers or based on broker-dealer quotations. Depending on the nature of the instruments and the terms of the transaction, the value of OTC derivative financial instruments can be estimated by a pricing service provider using a series of techniques, including industry standard pricing models. The pricing models use inputs that are observed from actively quoted markets such as issuer details, indices, spreads, yield curves, dividends and exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued at the daily settlement price determined by the clearing exchange. For centrally cleared credit default swaps, the clearing facility requires its members to provide actionable levels across complete term structures. These levels along with external third-party prices are used to produce daily settlement prices. Centrally cleared interest rate swaps are valued using a pricing model that references the underlying rates to produce the daily settlement price. These securities are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
Fixed Income Securities
Fixed income securities, including corporate and convertible bonds, U.S. Treasury obligations, foreign debt obligations, and bank debt are normally valued by pricing service providers on the basis of last available bid price or ask price for securities sold short. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing service providers may use broker-dealer quotations, reported trades or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models to determine the reported price that consider observable inputs. The pricing service providers’ internal models use observable inputs such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar assets. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Mortgage-related securities (“MBS”) and asset-backed securities (“ABS”) are usually issued as separate tranches, or classes, of securities within each deal. These securities are also generally valued by pricing service providers that use broker-dealer quotations or valuation estimates from their internal pricing models. The pricing models for these securities usually consider tranche-level attributes, current market data, estimated cash flows and market-based yield spreads for each tranche, and incorporate deal collateral performance, as available. MBS and ABS that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Level 3 investments are valued by broker quotes, fair value models, or pricing services that may employ valuation techniques with unobservable inputs. At March 31, 2017, the total fair value of Level 3 investments was $2,879,336. The appropriateness of fair values for these securities are monitored on an ongoing basis which may include results of backtesting, results of pricing due diligence, unchanged price review, use of specialists, and consideration of macro security specific events.
Investments in Investee Funds
The fair value of investments in unaffiliated hedge funds, (collectively, the “Investee Funds”) is generally determined using the reported net asset value per share of the Investee Fund, or its equivalent, as a practical expedient for fair value, unless the investment in the Investee Fund is traded on a recognized securities exchange and a quoted price is available as of the measurement date. If the Investee Fund is not traded on an exchange, the Fund may, as a practical expedient, estimate the fair value of an Investee Fund based on the reported net asset value per share or its equivalent if the reported net asset value per share or its equivalent of the Investee Fund is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles applied to investment companies, in accordance with ASC 946.
Securities and Other Investments
Bank Debt
The Fund may invest in bank debt including, for example, corporate loans, trade claims, loan participations, direct debt, revolvers, bank loans, and bridge loans. The Fund invests in loans through novations, assignments, and participation interests. In a novation, the Fund typically assumes all of the rights of a lending institution, including the right to receive payments of principal and interest and other amounts directly from the borrower and to enforce its rights as a lender directly against the borrower. When the Fund takes an assignment of a loan, the Fund acquires some or all of the interest of another lender (or assignee) in the loan. In such cases, the Fund may be required generally to rely upon the assignor to demand payment and enforce rights under the loan. If the Fund acquires a participation in the loan, the Fund purchases an indirect interest in a loan held by a third-party and the Fund typically will have a contractual relationship only with the third-party loan investor, not with the borrower. As a result, the Fund may have the right to receive payments of principal, interest, and any fees to which it is entitled only from the loan investor selling the
167

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
participation and only upon receipt by such loan investor of such payments from the borrower. In such cases, the Fund assumes the credit risk of both the borrower and the loan investor selling the participation, and the Fund may be unable to realize some or all of the value of its interest in the loan in the event of the insolvency of the third-party. Changes in the financial condition of the borrower or economic conditions or other circumstances may reduce the capacity of the borrower to make principal and interest payments on such instruments and may lead to defaults. Certain types of bank debt may have an associated partially funded or unfunded commitment. The unfunded commitments may or may not be funded by the Fund. At March 31, 2017, the Fund had an outstanding commitment of $739,541 related to held bank debt.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities
The Fund may invest in MBS (residential and commercial) and other ABS. These securities include mortgage pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage-backed securities, residential mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations and other securities that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property. MBS and other ABS represent interests in pools of mortgages, loans or other assets. MBS are created from pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including loans made by savings and loans institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. These securities typically provide a monthly payment which consists of principal and/or interest payments. Interest payments may be determined by fixed or adjustable rates. MBS and ABS are subject to credit, interest rate, prepayment and extension risks.
Securities Sold Short
The Fund may sell securities short (a “Short Sale”). A Short Sale is a transaction whereby the Fund sells securities it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market price of those securities, whereby the Fund’s broker will execute a borrow transaction to deliver the securities resulting from the Fund’s Short Sale. The Fund is obligated to repurchase the securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Fund’s obligations to replace the securities in connection with a Short Sale are secured by collateral.
Upon entering into a Short Sale, the Fund establishes a liability which is recorded as securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities to represent securities due under the Short Sale agreement. The Fund is liable to pay any dividends declared and/or interest income earned during the period the Short Sale is open. These dividends and interest are recorded as dividend and interest expense on securities sold short in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income
Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as of the date notified. Interest income, which includes amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on non-defaulted fixed income securities, is recorded on an accrual basis and is accrued daily. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Foreign income and foreign capital gains on some foreign securities may be subject to foreign taxes, which are accrued as applicable.
Allocation of Income and Expenses
The Fund uses each class of share’s adjusted prior day net assets, adjusted for capital activity, to allocate Fund-level income and expenses and unrealized capital gains and losses pro-rata to each class of shares. Class-specific income and expenses are allocated directly to the applicable class.

Cash
At March 31, 2017, the Fund had $66,382,014 in domestic cash and $24,787,957 in foreign cash held at State Street Bank and Trust.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of the Fund is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing prices of such currencies on each Business Day. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions or when accrued. The Fund does not isolate the portion of realized or unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in the fair value of the investments. Such gains and losses are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net realized exchange gains or losses on disposition of foreign currencies and currency gains and losses realized between trade and settlement dates on investment transactions. Net unrealized appreciation and deprecation of assets and liabilities, other than investments, attributable to foreign currency fluctuations are recorded as net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currency translations in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Contingencies
Under the Trust’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”), the Fund’s officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and indemnifications. To date, the Fund has not had claims or losses pursuant to these contracts, although there is no assurance that it will not incur losses in connection with these indemnifications in the future.
Income Taxes
The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its investment company taxable income and net long-term capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is expected to be required. The Fund plans to file U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns.
For the current open tax years ending in October 31, 2014, October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2016 and all major jurisdictions, management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements. As a result, no income tax liability or expense, including interest and penalties, has been recorded within these consolidated financial statements.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains of the Fund, if any, are generally declared and paid in December; however, the Fund may make additional distributions at other times. Dividends and capital gain distributions paid by the Fund will be reinvested in additional Shares (see Note 6) of the Fund or, if elected by the Shareholder, paid in cash.

Segregation and Collateralization
In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff require that the Fund either delivers collateral or segregates assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, swaps and options written), or transactions considered to reflect borrowings (e.g., reverse repurchase agreements), the Fund will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive guidance issued by the SEC, segregate collateral or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, the Fund engaging in such transactions may have requirements to deliver/deposit securities to/with an exchange or broker-dealer as collateral for certain investments to the extent consistent with the 1940 Act and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff. The Fund may mitigate counterparty risk by procuring collateral and through netting provisions included within an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) implemented between the Fund and each of its respective counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement may contain certain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. Certain ISDA Master Agreements, or similar agreements, may allow the Fund to offset certain derivative financial instruments’ with collateral. At March 31, 2017, the Fund used the gross method of presentation in its consolidated financial statements and did not elect to offset amounts eligible for offset under enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements (“MNA”). The amount of collateral moved to/from applicable counterparties is generally based upon minimum transfer amounts of up to $250,000. Collateral pledged by the Fund is segregated by the Fund’s custodian and identified as such in the Fund’s portfolio. Collateral can be in the form of cash or securities as agreed to by the Fund and the applicable counterparty. Typically, the Fund and counterparties are not permitted to sell, repledge or use the collateral they receive unless explicitly permitted by each respective governing agreement.
The Fund manages counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that the Adviser believes to have the financial resources to honor its obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. The agreements entered into by the Fund may contain credit risk related contingent features that may be triggered in certain circumstances to protect either party from a deterioration in creditworthiness of the other. Such circumstances may include a decrease in credit rating or, in the case of the Fund, a decrease in net asset value. If triggered, the Fund or counterparty may be entitled to additional cash margin and/or to terminate the contract. See Note 9 for a further discussion of the risks of the Fund, including credit and counterparty risk.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements
The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund sells a security in exchange for cash to a financial institution, the counterparty, with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same or substantially the same security at an agreed upon price and date, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). The Fund is entitled to receive principal and interest payments, if any, made on the security delivered to the counterparty during the term of the agreement. Cash received in exchange for securities delivered plus accrued interest payments to be made by the Fund to counterparties is reflected as a liability. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of the securities purchased with the proceeds from the sale of securities received by the Fund may decline below the price of the securities the Fund is obligated to repurchase. Reverse repurchase agreements also involve credit risk with the counterparty to the extent that the value of securities subject to repurchase exceed the Fund’s liability under the reverse repurchase agreement. Securities subject to repurchase under reverse repurchase agreements, if any, are designated as such in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Due to the short term
170
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
nature of the reverse repurchase agreements, face value approximates fair value. As of March 31, 2017, the face value of open reverse repurchase agreements for the Fund was $291,218,008. The weighted average daily balances of reverse repurchase agreements outstanding during the year ended March 31, 2017 for the Fund was approximately $258,523,283, at a weighted average weekly interest rate of 2.44%.
An MRA contains provisions for, among other things, initiation, income payments, events of default and maintenance of securities for repurchase agreements. An MRA also permits offsetting with collateral to create one single net payment in the event of default or similar events, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of a counterparty. The Fund may not use reverse repurchase agreements and related collateral governed by an MRA to offset derivatives contracts and related collateral governed by an ISDA (see Note 4) or securities lending agreements and related collateral governed by a securities lending agreement (“SLA”) (see below).
The following tables present the reverse repurchase agreements, which are subject to enforceable MRAs, as well as the collateral delivered related to those reverse repurchase agreements by class of collateral and summarized by the remaining contractual maturity of the transactions.

Securities Lending
The Fund may lend securities, through its agent, to certain qualified financial institutions. The loans are collateralized by cash in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. The market value of securities loaned is determined daily and any additional required collateral is allocated to the Fund
171
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
on the next Business Day. The initial collateral received by the Fund should have a value of at least 102% of the current value of loaned securities for U.S. securities and at least 105% for all other securities. The risk of borrower default will be borne by the Fund’s agent; the Fund will bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the cash collateral. The advantage of such loans is that the Fund continues to receive income on loaned securities while earning returns on the cash amounts which may be reinvested for the purchase of investment in securities. Income from securities lending is included in investment income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of March 31, 2017, the market value of securities loaned for the Fund amounted to $35,506,295 and the Fund had received cash collateral of $36,464,203. The market value of securities on loan are classified as common stock, corporate and convertible bonds and notes in the Fund’s Consolidated Schedule of Investments and as a component of investments in securities, at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the value of the related collateral is shown separately as securities lending collateral payable in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. All of the security lending agreements are continuous.
The SLA entered into by the Fund provides the right, in the event of default, for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate a net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. Under the agreement, the Fund can reinvest cash collateral.
The following table presents the SLA by borrower/counterparty, which are subject to offset under the SLA, as well as the collateral delivered related to those SLA by class of collateral and summarized by the remaining contractual maturity of the transactions. The Fund may not use collateral governed by an SLA to offset reverse repurchase agreements and related collateral governed by an MRA (see above) or derivatives contracts and related collateral governed by an ISDA (see Note 4).

Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions
The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued or delayed-delivery securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.
The Fund may transact in To Be Announced Securities (“TBAs”). As with other delayed-delivery transactions, a seller agrees to issue TBAs at a future date. However, the seller does not specify the particular securities to be delivered. Instead, the Fund agrees to accept any security that meets specified terms such as issuer, interest rate and terms of underlying mortgages. The Fund records TBAs on the trade date utilizing information associated with the specified terms of the transaction as opposed to the specific mortgages. TBAs are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur due to the fact that the actual underlying mortgages received may be less favorable than those anticipated by the Fund.
Restricted Securities
The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. Many such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund’s restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. Restricted securities are identified in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Regulatory Updates
In December 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements. The new guidance includes an amendment to Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, which clarifies the difference between a valuation approach and a valuation technique when applying the guidance in that Topic. The amendment also requires an entity to disclose when there has been a change in either or both a valuation approach and/or a valuation technique. The transition guidance for the amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the new guidance. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-19 is not expected to have a material impact in the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)—Restricted Cash. The new guidance is intended to change the presentation of restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The new standard affects all entities that have restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after 15 December 2018, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-18 is not expected to have a material impact in the consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the SEC issued a new rule, Investment Company Reporting Modernization, which, among other provisions, amends Regulation S-X to require standardized, enhanced disclosures, particularly relating to derivatives, in investment company financial statements. In addition, the rule introduces two new regulatory reporting forms for investment companies, which will be used after June 1, 2018: Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN. Compliance with the amendments to Regulation S-X is effective for financial statements
173

filed with the SEC on or after August 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption will have no effect on the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund is still evaluating the potential impacts of the Investment Company Reporting Modernization to the Fund.
4. Derivative Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into derivative financial instrument contracts for trading and/or economic hedging purposes to increase the returns of the Fund or to protect against exposure to certain risks such as credit risk, equity risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk or other risk (e.g., inflation risk). These contracts may be transacted on a recognized exchange or OTC. The following disclosures contain information on how the Fund uses derivative financial instruments. The derivative financial instruments outstanding as of period end are disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Fund may enter into Forwards to obtain investment exposure, seek to enhance return or hedge or protect its portfolio holdings against the risk of future movements in certain foreign currency exchange rates. Forwards are agreements between two parties to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. The market value of a Forward fluctuates with the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are valued daily and the change in market value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on forward foreign currency exchange contracts. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes 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.
The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities of the Fund, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign currency exchange contracts may limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the currency holdings, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the Fund could be exposed to losses if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contracts. The Fund’s maximum potential loss from such contracts is the aggregate face value in U.S. dollars at the time the contract was opened. These contracts involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Futures Contracts
The Fund may enter into futures contracts to maintain investment exposure to a target asset class or to seek to enhance return. The Fund may be subject to fluctuations in equity prices, interest rates, commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Futures contracts are standardized agreements to buy or sell a security, or deliver a final cash settlement price in connection with an index, interest rate, currency, or other asset. The Fund must deposit an amount (“initial margin”) equal to a certain percentage of the face value of the futures contract. The initial margin may be in the form of cash or securities which is returned when the Fund’s obligations under the contract have been satisfied. If cash is deposited as the initial margin, it is shown as segregated cash balance with broker for futures contracts in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Futures contracts are marked-to-market daily and subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by the Fund depending on whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed or expires, the Fund records 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. The potential risk to the Fund is that the change in value of futures contracts may not correspond to the change in the value of the hedge investments. In addition, losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instrument, if interest or exchange rates move unexpectedly or if the
174
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
counterparty is unable to perform. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchanges’ clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.
Options Contracts
The Fund may purchase and write call and put options. An option contract purchased by the Fund gives the Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call) or sell (put) an underlying instrument at a fixed exercise price during a specified period. Call options written by the Fund give the holder the right to buy the underlying instrument from the Fund at a fixed exercise price; put options written by the Fund give the holder the right to sell the underlying instrument to the Fund at a fixed exercise price. The Fund may use options to hedge against changes in values of securities or currencies it owns or expects to own, to gain or to maintain exposure to interest rates, currencies or broad equity markets, to generate additional income or to enhance returns.
Options trading involve certain additional risks. Specific market movements of the option and the instruments underlying the option cannot be predicted. No assurance can be given that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular option or at any particular time. The Fund might not be able to enter into a closing transaction for the option as a result of an illiquid market for the option. To realize any profit in the case of an option, therefore, the option holder would need to exercise the option and comply with margin requirements for the underlying instrument. A writer could not terminate the obligation until the option expired or the writer was assigned an exercise notice. The purchaser of an option is subject to the risk of losing the entire purchase price of the option. The writer of an option is subject to the risk of loss resulting from the difference between the premium received for the option and the price of the futures contract underlying the option that the writer must purchase or deliver upon exercise of the option. The writer of a naked option may have to purchase the underlying contract in the market for substantially more than the exercise price of the option in order to satisfy his delivery obligations. This could result in a large net loss.
Equity, foreign currency or index options that may be purchased or sold by the Fund may include options not traded on a securities exchange. The risk of nonperformance by the counterparty on such option may be greater and the ability of the Fund to enter into a closing transaction with respect to such option may be less than in the case of an exchange traded option.
The Fund may purchase or write interest rate swaption agreements which are options to enter into a pre-defined swap agreement by some specific date in the future. The writer of the swaption becomes the counterparty to the swap if the buyer exercises. The interest rate swaption agreement will specify whether the buyer of the swaption will be a fixed-rate receiver or a fixed-rate payer upon exercise.
Purchases of put and call options are recorded as investments, the value of which are marked-to-market daily. When a purchased option expires without being exercised, the Fund will realize a loss equal to the premium paid. When the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the Fund will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the premium initially paid for the option. When the Fund exercises a put option, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying instrument and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid for the put option. When the Fund exercises a call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid for the call option. Realized gains and losses on purchased options are included in realized gains and losses on investments.
The premium received for a written option is recorded as an asset and an equivalent liability. The liability is marked-to-market daily in accordance with the option’s valuation policy. When a written option expires without being exercised or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or

When a written call option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or loss, as adjusted for the premium received, from the sale of the underlying instrument. When a written put option is exercised, the premium received is offset against the amount paid for the purchase of the underlying instrument.

Swap Agreements
The Fund may enter into total return, interest rate, and credit default swap agreements (“Swaps”). Swaps are bilaterally negotiated agreements between the Fund and a counterparty in which the Fund and counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the OTC market or may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”). The Fund may enter into swap agreements for the purposes of managing exposure to interest rate, credit or market risk, or for other purposes. In connection with these agreements, securities or cash (“segregated cash” or “collateral”) may be paid or received, as applicable, by the Fund as collateral or margin in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency. Securities posted by the Fund as collateral for swaps are identified in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and segregated cash, if any, is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate, credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, or that there may be unfavorable changes in market conditions or interest rates. In addition, entering into swap agreements involves documentation risk resulting from the possibility that the parties to a swap agreement may disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreement. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted value of the net cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life, to the extent that amount is positive, or the fair value of the contract. The risk may be mitigated by having an MNA between the Fund and the counterparty and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty. Counterparty risk related to centrally cleared swaps is mitigated due to the protection against defaults provided by the exchange on which these contracts trade.
Interest Rate Swaps: The Fund may enter into OTC and/or centrally cleared interest rate swap contracts to hedge interest rate risk, to gain exposure on interest rates and to hedge prepayment risk. The Fund is subject

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Fund may hold fixed rate bonds, and the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating rate, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk, as opposed to investment and other types of risk, in respect of interest rate swaps is typically the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contracts remaining life, to the extent that amount is positive.
Interest rate swaps can be purchased or sold with an upfront premium. An upfront payment received by the Fund is recorded as a liability on the Fund’s Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and an upfront payment made by the Fund is recorded as an asset in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Interest rate swaps are marked-to-market daily and any change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps. Daily fluctuations in the value of centrally cleared interest rate swaps are recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin on the Fund’s Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Payments, including upfront premiums, received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses at the closing of the contract.
Total Return Swaps: The Fund may enter into total return swap agreements to obtain exposure to a security, index or market without owning such security or investing directly in that security, index or market or to transfer the risk/return of one market (e.g., fixed income) to another market (e.g., equity) (equity risk and/or interest rate risk). Total return swaps are agreements in which one party agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in market value of the underlying instrument, which may include a specified security, index, basket of securities or securities indices during the specific period, in return for periodic payments based on a fixed or floating rate or the total return from other underlying assets. To the extent the total return of the instrument underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty. Total return swaps can also be structured without an interest payment, so that one party pays the other party if the value of the underlying instrument increases and receives payment from the other party if the value of the underlying asset decreases.
Credit Default Swaps: The Fund may enter into OTC and/or centrally cleared credit default swap contracts to hedge credit risk, to hedge market risk, or to gain exposure on single-name issues and/or baskets of securities.
In a credit default swap contract, the protection buyer typically makes an upfront payment and a periodic stream of payments to a counterparty, the protection seller, in exchange for the right to receive a contingent payment upon the occurrence of a credit event on the reference obligation or all other equally ranked obligations of the reference entity. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructurings and obligation acceleration. An upfront payment received by the Fund or made by the Fund is recorded as a liability or asset, respectively, in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Periodic payments received or paid by the Fund are recorded as realized gains or losses. Credit default swap contracts are marked-to-market daily and the change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss on swaps. Upon the occurrence of a credit event, the difference between the par value and the market value of the reference obligation, net of any proportional amount of upfront payment, is recorded as a realized gain or loss on swaps.
Interest rate swaps, total return swaps and credit default swaps outstanding at period end are listed at the end of the Fund’s Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

Netting Arrangements
The Fund enters into ISDA Master Agreements which contain MNA’s that provide for payment netting and, in the case of default or similar event with respect to the counterparty to the MNA, can provide for netting across transactions. Generally, upon counterparty default, the Fund can terminate all transactions under the MNA and set-off amounts it owes across all transactions under a particular MNA and against collateral under such MNA. The Fund may not use derivatives contracts and related collateral governed by an ISDA to offset reverse repurchase agreements and related collateral governed by an MRA or securities lending agreements and related collateral governed by an SLA (see Note 3).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
Investments that are measured at fair value using NAV as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Investments in Investee Funds that are non-redeemable or subject to other restrictions such as a lockup at the measurement date or have the ability to limit the individual amount of investor redemptions shall be classified as having a redemption restriction.
The following table summarizes investments in Investee Funds, by investment strategy, the unfunded commitment of each strategy (if applicable), and the amount of the investment in Investee Fund that cannot be redeemed because of redemption restrictions put in place by the Investee Fund.
Investments in Investee Funds by Strategy |

(1) The Equity strategy generally includes equity-focused Investee Funds with a bottom-up analysis that do not actively trade exposures, with trading strategies focusing on shorter-term dynamics and appreciation for market technicals, top-down thematic/macro views, and technically driven statistical arbitrage with fundamental quantitative long/short strategies.
(2) Investments are redeemable quarterly upon 30 - 45 days written notice.
(A) Investments in Investee Funds cannot currently be redeemed and the remaining redemption restriction period is not known. The date the redemption restriction commenced is disclosed.
(B) Investments subject to other restrictions include investments in Investee Funds that are subject to a lockup at the measurement date and/or have the ability to limit the individual amount of investor redemptions. The redemption restriction term is based on the restriction period (or range of restriction periods) for Investee Funds as defined in each respective Investee Fund’s governing legal agreement without consideration of the length of time elapsed from the date of investments in Investee Funds. The Fund’s investment in a particular Investee Fund classified within the strategies above may be comprised of investments with differing liquidity terms or investments which were made at differing points in time.
During the year ended March 31, 2017, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. As of March 31, 2017, no Fair Value Factor was applied as price movements did not meet the Fair Value Trigger. For more detail on the fair value of foreign equity securities, please refer to the discussion of fair value measurements for exchange-traded securities in Note 3.
The Fund recognizes transfers within the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the period. During the year ended March 31, 2017, there were no transfers between Level 2 and Level 3.

have no investment minimum requirements. The Fund’s Class R Shares have no minimum investment requirement and are generally available only to special benefit plans.

7. Investment Adviser Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Pursuant to the investment management agreement between the Investment Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Fund pays the Investment Adviser a management fee (the “Fund Management Fee”) at an annual rate based on the Fund’s average daily net assets, excluding the net assets of the applicable Subsidiaries. The Fund’s Management Fee accrues daily in arrears and is paid quarterly. The Investment Adviser receives additional compensation at an annual rate based on each Subsidiary’s average daily net assets for providing management services to the Subsidiaries. For collective net assets of the Fund and the respective Subsidiaries up to $2.5 billion, the Fund Management Fee is calculated at a rate of 1.95% (annualized) and for collective net assets greater than or equal to $2.5 billion, the Fund Management Fee is calculated at a rate of 1.80% (annualized). During the year ended March 31, 2017, the Fund paid the Investment Adviser $85,233,171 in management fees. From this amount, the Investment Adviser paid $44,176,479 in sub-advisory fees to non-affiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to the Fund, which amounted to 0.98% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The Investment Adviser also paid $800,272 in sub-advisory fees to Blackstone Senfina Advisors LLC, a Sub-Adviser that, during the year ended March 31, 2017, was an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, with respect to the Multi-Strategy Fund, which amounted to 0.02% (annualized) of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
Sub-Advisory Fees
Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreements between the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Advisers, the Sub-Advisers are compensated for the services they provide to the Fund by the Investment Adviser from the Management Fee received by the Investment Adviser.
Distribution and Service Fees
Pursuant to the amended and restated Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund’s Class D Shares bear distribution and service fees at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund attributable to Class D Shares. Payments of the distribution and service fee may be made without regard to expenses actually incurred. The Fund’s Class I Shares, Class Y Shares and Class R Shares are not subject to distribution and service fees.
Expense Limitation and Reimbursement
The Investment Adviser has entered into an Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement with the Fund to limit the amount of Specified Expenses (as defined below) of the Fund to 2.40% per annum of the Fund’s net assets for Class D Shares, Class I Shares and Class Y Shares and 2.55% per annum of the Fund’s net assets for Class R Shares (collectively, the “Total Expense Cap”). Specified Expenses include all expenses incurred by the Fund with the exception of (i) the distribution or servicing fees, (ii) acquired fund fees and expenses, (iii) brokerage and trading costs, (iv) interest payments (including any interest expenses, commitment fees, or other expenses related to any line of credit of the Fund), (v) taxes, (vi) dividends and interest on short positions, and (vii) extraordinary expenses (as determined in the sole discretion of BAIA) (together, the “Excluded Expenses”).
To the extent the estimated annualized specified expenses for any month exceeds the total expense cap, the Investment Adviser will waive its fees and/or make payments to the Fund for expenses to the extent
185
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
necessary to eliminate such excess. The Investment Adviser may discontinue its obligations under the agreements at any time in its sole discretion after August 31, 2019 upon written notice to the Fund. The Fund has agreed to repay the amounts borne by the Investment Adviser under their respective agreements within the thirty-six month period after the Investment Adviser bears the expense, to the extent the estimated annualized Specified Expenses for a given month are less than the lower of the Total Expense Cap or any expense limitation agreement then in effect. The repayment may not raise the level of estimated annualized specified expenses in the month of repayment to exceed the total expense cap. During the year ended March 31, 2017, there were no repayments or potential repayments to the Investment Adviser.
Interfund Trades
The Fund may purchase from or sell securities to other affiliated Funds under procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure these interfund trades are executed in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. For the year ended March 31, 2017, the Fund purchased $3,397,662 of securities from an affiliated Fund.
Related Party Transactions
Blackstone Holdings Finance Co. L.L.C. (“FINCO”), an affiliate of the Fund, pays expenses on behalf of the Fund. The Fund reimburses FINCO for such expenses paid on behalf of the Fund. FINCO does not charge any fees for providing such administrative services. At year-end the fund had $288,556 payable to FINCO recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
8. Other Agreements
State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the administrator, custodian and transfer agent to the Fund. Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P., an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, serves as the Fund’s distributor.
9. Financial Instruments and Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Market Risk: In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). The value of securities held by the Fund may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by the Fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations.
Credit and Counterparty Risk: The Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions may default. The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Financial assets that potentially expose the Fund to credit and counterparty risk consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The Fund manages counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that it believes has the financial resources to honor its obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. The Fund’s Investment Adviser attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by (i) periodically assessing the creditworthiness of its trading partners, (ii) monitoring and/or limiting the amount of its net exposure to each individual counterparty based on its assessment and (iii) requiring collateral from the counterparty for certain transactions. In order to preserve certain safeguards for non-standard settlement trades, the Fund restricts exposure to credit and counterparty losses by entering into MNA’s with counterparties (approved brokers) with whom it undertakes a significant volume of transactions. Collateral requirements may differ by type of derivative or investment, as applicable. Collateral or margin requirements
186
Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended March 31, 2017
are set by the broker or exchange clearing house for exchange traded derivatives (e.g., futures contracts and exchange traded options) while collateral terms are contract specific for OTC traded derivatives (e.g., forward foreign currency exchange contracts, swap agreements and OTC options). For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement or similar master agreement, the collateral requirements may be netted across all transactions traded under such agreement and certain counterparties may allow one amount to be posted from one party to the other to collateralized such obligations. The ISDA Master Agreement gives each party to the agreement the right to terminate all transactions traded under such agreement if there is a certain deterioration in the credit quality of the other party. The ISDA Master Agreement gives the Fund the right, upon an event of default by the applicable counterparty or a termination of the agreement, to close out all transactions traded under such agreement and may permit net amounts owed under each transaction to be netted to derive one net amount payable by one party to the other. This right to close out and net payments across all transactions traded under the ISDA Master Agreement could result in a reduction of the Fund’s credit risk to such counterparty equal to any amounts payable by the Fund under the applicable transactions, if any. The enforceability of the right to offset may vary by jurisdiction. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under derivative financial instrument contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, for the same purpose are noted in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
At March 31, 2017, the Fund had counterparty concentration of credit risk primarily with State Street Bank And Trust Company, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley Capital Services LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited and Credit Suisse International.
Foreign Investment Risk: The investments by the Fund in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities may be denominated in, require settlement in and pay interest or dividends in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments. In addition to the risks described above, risks may arise from forward foreign currency exchange contracts with respect to the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Liquidity Risk: Some securities held by the Fund, including, but not limited to, restricted, distressed, nonexchange traded, and/or privately placed securities, may be difficult to sell, or illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil. Investments in Investment Funds are generally illiquid and some Investment Funds may not permit withdrawals or may make in-kind distributions of illiquid securities when the Fund desires to divest. Illiquid securities may be difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset to meet redemption requests or other cash needs, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss.
Non-Diversification Risk: The Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” investment company, which means that the percentage of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer is not limited by the 1940 Act. As a result, the Fund’s investment portfolios may be subject to greater risk and volatility than if investments had been made in the securities of a broad range of issuers.
Money Market Funds Risk: The investments in money market funds are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. In addition, money market funds are exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
Additional risks associated with each type of investment are described within the respective security type notes. The Fund’s Prospectus includes a discussion of the principal risks of investing in the Fund.

11. Income Tax Information
The Fund intends to qualify each tax year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Fund has adopted a tax year-end of October 31, therefore the consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, reflect tax adjusted balances as of October 31, 2016. The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and all of its net realized short-term and long-term capital gain, if any, after giving effect to any available capital loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the Fund makes no provision for U.S. federal income or excise taxes.
The Fund’s policy is to declare and pay distributions from net investment income and from net realized short-term and long-term capital gain, if any, at least annually. All distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund, at net asset value, unless the shareholder elects to receive cash distributions. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date.
The Fund is subject to authoritative guidance related to the accounting and disclosure of uncertain tax positions under U.S. GAAP. This guidance sets forth a minimum threshold for the financial statement recognition of tax positions taken based on the technical merits of such positions. United States and non-U.S. tax rules (including the interpretation and application of tax laws) are subject to change. The Fund files tax returns and/or adopts certain tax positions in various jurisdictions. Non-U.S. taxes are provided for based on the Fund’s understanding of the prevailing tax rules of the non-U.S. markets in which they invest. Recently enacted tax rules, including interpretations of tax laws (e.g., regulations pertaining to the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act) and proposed legislation currently under consideration in various jurisdictions, including the U.S., might affect the way the Fund and its investors are taxed prospectively and/or retroactively. Prior to the expiration of the relevant statutes of limitations, if any, the Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. jurisdictions with respect to the tax returns they have filed and the tax positions they have adopted. The Fund’s U.S. federal income tax returns are generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after they were filed. State, local and/or non-U.S. tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction.
The Fund made the following reclassification at March 31, 2017 due to permanent book and tax differences primarily attributable to gain or loss from passive foreign investment companies, certain derivative financial instrument transactions, certain shareholder redemption activity treated as distributions for tax and income from the wholly-owned Cayman Subsidiary from the tax year-ended October 31, 2016:

12. Borrowings Under Credit Facility
The Fund has a secured revolving borrowing facility (the “Facility”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $60,000,000, subject to a maximum loan value of not more than 25% of the Fund’s NAV (the “Aggregate Commitment Amount”). Borrowings under the Facility are used primarily for bridge financing purposes and are secured by the assets of the Fund. Under the terms of the agreement, the Aggregate Commitment Amount may be terminated or reduced from time to time upon written notice from the Fund to the Bank. Outstanding borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to 1.25% plus the One-Month USD LIBOR Rate per annum (2.23% at March 31, 2017). A commitment fee is charged in the amount of 0.25% per annum as well as an upfront underwriting fee equal to 0.10% of the Commitment Amount per annum. Commitment fees accrued through the end of each calendar quarter are due no later than the 15th day of the immediately succeeding calendar month during the term of the Facility. Accrued interest is due no later than January 29, 2018, the termination date of the Facility at which time the Fund and the Bank can agree to extend the existing agreement. For the year ended March 31, 2017, the Fund made no borrowings under the Facility.
13. Subsequent Events
The Investment Adviser has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date of financial statement issuance, and determined there were no subsequent events outside the normal course of business requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees of Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds and the Shareholders of Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and Subsidiaries:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and subsidiaries, one of the portfolios constituting the Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds (the “Fund”), as of March 31, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the consolidated statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund 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 Fund’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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of March 31, 2017, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and agent banks; when replies were not received from brokers and agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. 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 consolidated financial position of Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Fund and subsidiaries of Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds, as of March 31, 2017, the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, the consolidated changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Shareholder Fee Example (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Multi-Strategy Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and to the extent applicable, distribution and/or service fees (12b-1 fees) and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Actual Expenses
The actual expense example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of a six month period and held through the year ended March 31, 2017. The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The hypothetical expense example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of a six month period and held through the year ended March 31, 2017. The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the Fund. The hypothetical amount account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Board Approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements
At meetings of the Board held in person on November 15-16, 2016 and February 14-15, 2017, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered and unanimously approved the investment sub-advisory agreements for the Fund (“New Sub-Advisory Agreements”, “Amended and Restated Sub-Advisory Agreements” and “Renewed Sub-Advisory Agreements,” together the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between BAIA and each of the following Sub-Advisers:
Renewed Sub-Advisory Agreements (approved at November meeting)
• | Cerberus Sub-Advisory I, LLC |
• | Sorin Capital Management, LP |
• | Wellington Management Company LLP |
Amended and Restated Sub-Advisory Agreements (approved at November meeting)
• | Boussard & Gavaudan Investment Management, LLP |
• | Waterfall Asset Management, LLC |
Amended and Restated Sub-Advisory Agreements (approved at February meeting)
• | Boussard & Gavaudan Investment Management, LLP |
• | Chatham Asset Management, LLC |
• | D. E. Shaw Investment Management, L.L.C |
• | GS Investment Strategies LLC |
• | HealthCor Management L.P. |
• | Two Sigma Advisers, LLC |
• | Waterfall Asset Management, LLC |
New Sub-Advisory Agreements (approved at February meeting)
• | FT AlphaParity, LLC (“FT AlphaParity”) |
• | GSA Capital Partners LLP (“GSA”) |
The Independent Trustees were assisted in their review of the Sub-Advisory Agreements by independent legal counsel. The Board requested and evaluated all the information it deemed reasonably necessary under the circumstances in connection with the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Board noted that BAIA and the Fund would rely on an exemptive order from the SEC that permitted the Fund to add or replace sub-advisers without a shareholder vote, provided that the Board, including a majority of Independent Trustees, approves the new sub-advisers and certain other conditions are met.
196
Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds and Subsidiaries
Supplemental Information (Continued)
Before the meetings, the Board received materials prepared by independent legal counsel regarding the relevant factors to consider in connection with the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Board had requested and received materials prepared by BAIA and BAAM relating to each Sub-Adviser, including (1) summary information regarding: the investment thesis; strengths; performance and positioning; a firm-wide risk evaluation and a strategy risk evaluation; an assessment of business infrastructure, valuation, liquidity, trade execution, and allocation, and compliance; and a summary of the key terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements; (2) a Sub-Adviser Tear Sheet which covered in greater detail each Sub-Adviser’s performance, returns and investment exposure. The information the Board received for each newly proposed sub-adviser included: (3) a Manager Investment Review, which covered, in greater detail, the Sub-Adviser’s investment thesis, organizational history and ownership, personnel, peer group analysis, risk review, and business financial evaluation; (4) a Back Office Review, which covered, among other things, information regarding the Sub-Adviser’s product offerings and personnel, business viability, related entities, product and operational complexity, valuation, internal controls, counterparties, service providers, and regulatory and compliance infrastructure. Before the meetings, the Board received each Sub-Adviser’s responses to Information Requests under Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act that addressed, among other things: (i) general financial information; (ii) services; (iii) material business dealings with Blackstone and the Fund’s service providers; (iv) the Sub-Adviser’s business plan for the Fund for the coming year; (v) costs, fees, other benefits, and profitability; and (iv) risk management and regulatory compliance matters.
With respect to the Amended and Restated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board received, among other things, information about the changes from the original sub-advisory agreements, as well as copies of the information reviewed in connection with the approvals of that Sub-Adviser’s original sub-advisory agreements.
At the meetings, there was discussion regarding the materials that had been provided to the Board, the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements, and other relevant considerations. Additionally, the Board (and separately, the Independent Trustees) conferred with their independent legal counsel to consider the information provided. In evaluating the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board took into account the fact that the compensation paid to the Sub-Advisers would be paid by BAIA from the investment management fee it receives from the Fund and would not increase the fees or expenses otherwise incurred by the Fund or its shareholders. In the case of the Amended and Restated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board also took into account its most recent consideration and approval of the agreements with those Sub-Advisers, and the fact that the proposed changes to the agreements were not expected to result in any change in the nature, extent or quality of the services provided to the Fund.
Following this discussion, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, determined to approve all of the Sub-Advisory Agreements on the basis of the following considerations, among others:
Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services
The Board discussed and considered with respect to each Sub-Adviser (1) personnel, operations, and financial condition; (2) investment expertise and strengths; (3) percentage of assets that are or potentially would be allocated to the Sub-Adviser; (4) investment return on the assets that are managed by the Sub-Adviser and related investment risks; (5) the Sub-Adviser’s experience and performance as a hedge fund manager, where applicable, and the extent to which the Sub-Adviser’s strategy for the Fund overlapped or would overlap with its hedge fund strategy; (6) where applicable, the Sub-Adviser’s experience and performance as a sub-adviser to the Fund; and (7) the experience and depth of the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management team managing hedge fund and other products and its ability to manage risk. The Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the sub-advisory services to be provided by each Sub-Adviser were appropriate and thus supported a decision to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreements.
197

Supplemental Information (Continued)
Costs of Services and Profitability
In analyzing the cost of services and profitability of each Sub-Adviser, the Board discussed the following factors: each Sub-Adviser’s sub-advisory fee (proposed sub-advisory fee in the case of GSA and FT AlphaParity) for managing the allocated Fund assets, including any breakpoints, each Sub-Adviser’s resources devoted or that would be devoted to the Fund; and each Sub-Advisers response to inquires regarding profitability to the Sub-Adviser from providing sub-advisory services to the Fund. The Board considered the specific resources that each Sub-Adviser devoted or would devote to the Fund for investment analysis, risk management, compliance, and order execution, and the extent to which each Sub-Adviser’s investment process is or would be scalable. The Board noted that the compensation paid to the Sub-Adviser was paid by BAIA, not the Fund, and, accordingly, that the retention of the Sub-Adviser did not increase the fees or expenses otherwise incurred by shareholders of the Fund. It also noted that the terms of each Sub-Adviser’s Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement were the result of separate arm’s-length negotiations between BAIA and the Sub-Adviser. The Board considered information comparing the sub-advisory fees to the fees that each Sub-Adviser charges for providing investment advisory services to certain other clients. The Board also considered information regarding the impact that retaining or hiring the Sub-Advisers as sub-advisers to the Fund has or would have on BAIA’s profitability, as well as information about the blended average of all sub-advisory fees that BAIA pays the sub-advisers based on allocations of Fund assets among the sub-advisers.
The Board concluded that the level of investment sub-advisory fees was appropriate in light of the services to be provided.
Economies of Scale
The Board discussed various financial and economic considerations relating to the proposed arrangement with each Sub-Adviser, including economies of scale and the current and proposed breakpoints in place for certain Sub-Advisers. The Board further noted that it would have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether the Fund had achieved economies of scale, as well as the appropriateness of sub-advisory fees payable to each Sub-Adviser, with respect to different asset sizes of the portfolio, in the future. The Board also noted that, although not directly related to the sub-advisory fees payable to each Sub-Adviser, certain Fund expenses were subject to an expense cap, an undertaking by BAIA intended to limit the Fund’s overall expenses at smaller asset levels.
Investment Performance of the Sub-Advisers
The Board considered the investment performance of the Sub-Advisers. Where applicable, the Board considered information about the year-to-date, 2016, and inception-to-date investment return of the Fund’s assets that are managed by each Sub-Adviser (net of trading expenses but gross of investment management fees and fund operating expenses), all as compared to the investment returns of (i) a custom index defined by BAIA and (ii) in the case of certain Sub-Advisers, such Sub-Adviser’s hedge fund strategy. In addition, for Sub-Adviser’s currently engaged by BAIA, the Board considered information about performance risk measurements of the assets that are managed by the Sub-Adviser, the custom index and, for certain Sub-Advisers, such Sub-Adviser’s hedge fund strategy, such as annualized return, standard deviation (which is a measure of volatility), Sharpe ratio, beta statistics, and alpha statistics.
On the basis of the Board’s assessment, the Board concluded that the investment performance generated by the Sub-Advisers currently engaged by BAIA was generally satisfactory and that each of the Sub-Advisers was capable of reasonable investment performance to the Fund.

Other Benefits
The Board discussed other potential benefits that each Sub-Adviser may receive from the Fund, including soft dollar arrangements, receipt of brokerage and research services, and the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders. The Board noted that each Sub-Adviser benefited from its relationship with BAIA/BAAM. The Board concluded that any other ancillary or “fall out” benefits derived by each Sub-Adviser from its relationship with BAIA, BAAM, or the Fund, to the extent such benefits were identifiable or determinable, were reasonable and fair, resulted from the provision of appropriate services to the Fund and its shareholders, and were consistent with industry practice and the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
Other Considerations
The Board reviewed and considered certain terms and conditions of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. After discussion, the Board concluded that the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements were reasonable and fair. It was noted that the Board would have the opportunity to periodically re-examine the terms of each Sub-Advisory Agreement in the future.
Conclusion
The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that the fees payable under each of the Sub-Advisory Agreements were fair and reasonable with respect to the services that the relevant Sub-Adviser would provide to the Fund and in light of the other factors described above that the Board deemed relevant. The Board noted that both BAIA and the Board had determined that each Sub-Adviser’s compliance program was reasonably designed to prevent the violation of the federal securities laws within the meaning of Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act and that each Sub-Adviser’s code of ethics was reasonably designed to prevent “access persons” (as defined in Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act) from engaging in any act, practice, or course of business prohibited by Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board based its approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements on a comprehensive consideration of all information presented to the Board at its meetings throughout the year and not as a result of any single controlling factor. The Board was also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making these determinations.
Board Approval of the Investment Management Agreement for Blackstone Multi-Strategy Fund, and each of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries
At meetings of the Board held in person on May 17-18, 2016 and on February 14-15, 2017, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered and unanimously approved the following agreements:
(i) | the investment management agreement by and between the Trust and BAIA, on behalf of Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Multi-Strategy Investment Management Agreement”); and |
(ii) | the investment management agreements between the Trust and each of Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund II Ltd., Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund III L.L.C., and Blackstone Alternative Multi-Strategy Sub Fund IV L.L.C. (the “Sub Funds”) (collectively, the “Sub Fund Agreements” and together with the Multi-Strategy Investment Management Agreement, the “Investment Management Agreements”). |
The Sub Funds are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Fund, and BAIA provides investment management services to the Fund and its Sub Funds on a collective basis, therefore, the Trustees evaluated the arrangements between BAIA and the Fund collectively with BAIA’s arrangements with the Sub Funds.

Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds and Subsidiaries
Supplemental Information (Continued)
The Independent Trustees were assisted in their review of the Investment Management Agreements by independent legal counsel. The Board requested and evaluated all the information it deemed reasonably necessary under the circumstances in connection with the approval of the Investment Management Agreements. Before the meeting, the Board received, among other things, (1) materials prepared by independent legal counsel regarding the relevant factors to consider in evaluating the Investment Management Agreements; (2) materials prepared by BAIA relating to, among other things, BAIA’s experience and qualifications to serve as investment manager; (3) analysis of the fees and expenses of the Fund (on a combined basis with the fees and expenses of the Sub Funds) as compared with a peer group of funds; analysis of BAIA’s expected profitability for providing services to the Fund; (4) information regarding BAIA’s Code of Ethics and compliance program; and (5) materials prepared by an outside firm, unaffiliated with the Fund or BAIA, that is in the business of regularly preparing reports for use by fund boards in considering investment advisory agreement approvals (the “Service Provider”) comparing the management fee rate and total operating expenses of the Fund (on a combined basis with the fees and expenses of the Sub Funds) to those of a peer group of funds determined by the Service Provider.
At the meeting, there was discussion regarding the materials that had been provided to the Board, the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the operations of the Fund, and other relevant considerations. Following this discussion, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered the following factors, among others:
Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services
The Board discussed BAIA’s personnel, operations, and financial condition and considered: (1) the background and experience of key investment personnel and BAIA’s ability to attract and retain talent; (2) BAIA’s focus on analysis of complex asset categories, including alternative investments; (3) BAIA’s disciplined investment approach and commitment to investment principles; (4) BAIA’s manager selection and due diligence process; (5) BAIA’s significant risk management, compliance, and operational efforts; (6) BAIA and BAP’s strategic planning for the Fund in the marketplace; and (7) BAIA’s oversight of and interaction with sub-advisers and other service providers. The Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the management services provided were appropriate and thus supported a decision to renew the Investment Management Agreements. The Board also concluded that BAIA likely would be able to provide during the coming year the same quality of investment management and related services as provided in the past and that these services are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the Fund’s and the Sub Funds’ operations, the competitive landscape, and shareholders’ expectations.
Costs of Services and Profitability
In analyzing the cost of services and profitability of BAIA, the Board considered BAIA’s resources devoted to the Fund as well as the revenues earned and expenses incurred by BAIA. The Board also considered profitability data provided by BAIA showing fees, revenues, and overhead expenses of the Fund. The Board took into account the significant investment by, and cost to, BAIA regarding service infrastructure to support the Fund and its investors. On the basis of the Board’s review of the fees to be charged by BAIA for investment advisory and related services, the relatively unique, and highly specialized, nature of the Fund’s investment program, BAIA’s financial information, and the estimated overhead costs associated with managing the Fund, the Board concluded that the level of investment management fees is appropriate in light of the services provided, the management fees and overall expense ratios of comparable investment companies, and the cap on expenses established by an expense limitation agreement.
Economies of Scale
The Board discussed various financial and economic considerations relating to the arrangement with BAIA, including economies of scale. The Board considered the management fee breakpoint for the Fund, noting
200
Blackstone Alternative Investment Funds and Subsidiaries
Supplemental Information (Continued)
that, for collective net assets of the Fund and its Sub Funds up to $2.5 billion, the management fee is calculated at a rate of 1.95%, and for collective net assets greater than or equal to $2.5 billion, the management fee is calculated at a rate of 1.80%. The Board concluded that the management fees, with the current breakpoint in place, reflected the complexity of the Fund’s and Sub Funds’ operations and were reasonable in light of the Fund’s and Sub Funds’ current and anticipated size. The Board noted that it will have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether the Fund and Sub Funds had achieved economies of scale, as well as the appropriateness of management fees payable to BAIA, in the future. The Board further noted that certain Fund expenses were subject to an expense cap, an undertaking by BAIA intended to limit the Fund’s overall expenses at smaller asset levels.
Fund Performance
The Board received and considered information about (i) the one year, inception-to-date, quarter-to-date, year-to-date, and trailing three months performance information of the Fund (net of fees and expenses), all as compared to the S&P 500 Total Return Index, MSCI World Total Return Index, Barclay’s Aggregate Bond Index, JPMorgan Domestic High Yield Index, and HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index (the “Comparative Indices”); (ii) the historical monthly performance of the Fund since inception (net of fees and expenses); (iii) the inception-to-date standard deviation (a measurement of volatility), Sharpe ratio (a measurement of risk-adjusted return), and alpha and beta ratios of the Fund as compared to the Comparative Indices; (iv) the inception-to-date, one year, and quarter-to-date performance of the Fund (net of fees and expenses), as compared to the Committee-prepared peer group; and (v) the one year and two year performance of the Fund (net of fees and expenses), as compared to the Broadridge-prepared peer group. In addition, the Board considered information about inception-to-date performance risk measurements of the Fund and the Committee-prepared peer group such as (a) annualized return, (ii) standard deviation, (c) Sharpe ratio, and (iv) beta against the S&P 500. The Board further considered information about the Fund’s one-year and inception-to-date performance, volatility, Sharpe ratio, and beta ratio versus that of several indices.
With respect to the approvals in May 2016, the Board noted that (i) the inception-to-date performance return as of January 31, 2016 was lower than the corresponding returns of the S&P 500 Total Return Index and the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index but greater than the corresponding returns of the MSCI World Total Return Index, the JPMorgan Domestic High Yield Index, and the HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index; (ii) the inception-to-date and one year performance returns as of December 31, 2015 were greater than the corresponding returns for each of the seven funds in the Committee-prepared peer group that had been in operation since the inception of BAMSF; and (iii) the one year performance return as of December 31, 2015 was greater than four of the five funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group that had a one-year track record.
With respect to the approvals in February 2017, the Board noted that, as of December 31, 2016 (i) the inception-to-date performance return was less than the corresponding returns of the corresponding returns of the S&P 500 Total Return Index, MSCI World Total Return Index, and the JPMorgan Domestic High Yield Index but greater than the corresponding returns of the Barclays Aggregate Bond Index and the HFRX Global Hedge Fund Index; (ii) the inception-to-date performance return was greater than the corresponding return for five of the six funds in the Committee-prepared peer group; (iii) the one year performance return was less than the corresponding returns for each of the six other funds in the Committee-prepared peer group and (iv) the one-year performance return was less than six of the seven other funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group that had a one-year track record.
Taking into account such factors, the Board concluded that the investment performance generated by BAIA was generally satisfactory and that BAIA was capable of generating a level of long term investment performance that is appropriate in light of the Fund’s and Sub Funds’ investment objectives, policies, and strategies, although recognizing that there can be no assurance of any particular investment outcome.

Fees and Expenses
The Board, including the Independent Trustees, compared the fees and expense ratios of the Fund’s Class I shares (before and after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements) for the calendar year ended December 31, 2016 against fees and expense ratios of the Broadridge-prepared peer group. The Board also considered the oral analysis provided by BAIA on the appropriateness of the Broadridge-prepared peer group. Specifically with respect to the approvals in May 2016, the Board considered data indicating that, (i) the contractual (before waivers) management (including both investment management and administration fees) fee rate of each BAIF Fund was higher than the contractual (before waivers) management (including both investment management and administration fees) fee rate of all five funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group, and (ii) the actual (after waivers) management fee of each BAIF Fund was higher than the actual (after waivers) management fee of all five funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group. Specifically, with respect to the approvals in February 2017, the Board considered data based on information provided by Broadridge indicating that, (i) the contractual (before waivers) management (including both investment management and administration fees) fee rate was higher than the contractual (before waivers) management (including both investment management and administration fees) fee rate of five of the seven other funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group, and (ii) the actual (after waivers) management fee was higher than the actual (after waivers) management fee of all seven other funds in the Broadridge-prepared peer group.
The Board also took into consideration the peer group analysis prepared by BAIA, under the guidance of the Oversight Committee, which showed fees and expenses of BAMSF’s Class I Shares, Class Y Shares, Class D Shares, and Class R Shares and a group of thirteen competitor funds selected by BAIA (including the six funds in the Committee-prepared peer group used for performance comparisons). Specifically with respect to the approvals in May 2016, the Board considered data indicating that (i) the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of each BAIF Fund was higher than the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of six of the seven funds in the Committee-prepared peer group; (ii) the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of each BAIF Fund was 21 bps higher than the average contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of the Committee-prepared peer group (excluding the BAIF Funds); and (iii) the total net expenses of each BAIF Fund were higher than all seven funds in the Committee-prepared peer group. With respect to the approvals in February 2017, the Board noted that (i) the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate was higher than the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of twelve of the thirteen funds in the broader Committee-prepared peer group; (ii) the contractual (before waivers) management fee rate was 40 bps higher than the average contractual (before waivers) management fee rate of the broader Committee-prepared peer group (excluding the Fund); and (iii) the total net expenses for the Fund’s Class D shares and Class R shares were higher than all thirteen funds in the broader Committee-prepared peer group and the total net expenses for Fund’s Class I shares and Class Y shares were higher than twelve of the thirteen funds in the broader Committee-prepared peer group.
The Board considered the Fund’s fees and expenses in light of the scope and quality of services provided by BAIA and determined that, given the scope and quality of services provided by BAIA, the fees that are higher than those charged by peers were appropriate. On the basis of the factors considered and information presented, the Board determined that Fund’s fee rates were reasonable.
Other Benefits
The Board discussed other benefits that BAIA may receive from the Fund. The Board noted that BAIA indicated that it does not expect to receive significant ancillary, soft dollar, or other “fall out” benefits as a result of its relationship with the Fund. The Board concluded that other benefits derived by BAIA from its relationship with the Fund, to the extent such benefits are identifiable or determinable, are reasonable and fair, result from the provision of appropriate services to the Fund and its shareholders, and are consistent with industry practice and the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.

Conclusion
The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that the fees payable under each Investment Management Agreement were fair and reasonable with respect to the services that BAIA provides to the Fund it manages and in light of the other factors described above that the Board deemed relevant. The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, determined to approve the continuation of the Investment Management Agreements based on comprehensive consideration of all information presented to the Board at its meetings throughout the year and not as a result of any single controlling factor. The Board was assisted by the advice of independent counsel in this determination.
