Integrated Credit Allocation Across Capital Structures and Cycles
Our Multi-Strategy Credit platform is designed to capitalize on relative value and dislocation opportunities across global credit markets. By integrating multiple credit strategies within a single, actively managed framework, we seek to generate alpha through both top-down macro positioning and bottom-up covenant selection.
Investment Philosophy
We take a flexible, opportunistic approach to credit investing, allocating dynamically across:
Corporate Credit: High yield, investment grade, and crossover strategies targeting mispricings across the capital structure.
Distressed & Special Situations: Deep value investing in stressed, distressed, and post-reorg capital structures, often in less liquid segments.
Private Credit: Direct origination and opportunistic private lending, emphasizing bespoke deal structuring and credit-enhancing covenants.
Process & Execution
Dynamic Capital Allocation:
Allocation across strategies is continuously reassessed based on relative value, volatility, liquidity, and macroeconomic regime shifts.
Integrated Risk Management:
Portfolio construction is guided by multi-factor risk models, stress testing, and scenario analysis, with a focus on downside mitigation.
Research-Driven Framework:
Combines macroeconomic, sectoral, and issuer-level insights via proprietary models and fundamental credit analysis.
Global Opportunity Set:
Active sourcing of inefficiencies across developed and select emerging markets focused on private instruments.
Target Outcomes
Absolute Return Orientation:
Aims to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns uncorrelated to traditional credit benchmarks.
Cycle-Resilient Performance:
Structured to adapt positioning across credit cycles, capitalizing on volatility, illiquidity premiums, and idiosyncratic catalysts.
