Business structure for backing a trader?

[sweetWhiteOnion]

Hi. I would like to know how arrangements for backing a trader are typically organized with respect to business structure (LLC, partnership, etc. -- FYI, I'm in the US). Basically, if person A is going to back person B by providing x dollars with the expectation of being repaid x + y dollars at the end of a certain period of time, how should such a relationship be structured? The current plan is that the arrangement would be discontinued if a drawdown of z percent or more would occur, which is the risk being taken on by the equity provider.

Thank you.

cant really comment on a suitable structure in the US, but control of assets would certainly be a prime concern - ensuring that funds are maintained in person A's name, so that person B couldnt take x dollars and send person A a postcard from country C
