Investment Strategies

Alternative Fixed Income

Alternative Fixed Income Solution and European Direct Lending Solution.

Objective

Our alternative credit strategies – Alternative Fixed Income Solution and European Direct Lending Solution – each invest in a diversified pool of non-traditional credit funds with the aim of generating attractive total return through both income and capital appreciation over the long term.

Philosophy

In our view:

Alternative fixed income markets are enormously diverse and offer the potential to increase portfolio yield while decreasing risk through diversification.
They comprise a broad spectrum of debt products such as asset-backed securities, mortgage investments, insurance-linked securities, and distressed and private corporate debt.
We seek to reduce overall risk by creating diversified pools of specialist credit managers with complementary expertise and approaches.

Approach

Our experienced team manages, multi-manager portfolio’s for distressed debt, structured credit and direct lending. The team follows a disciplined, structured process designed to:

Enhance diversification and reduce concentration risk to specific companies, sectors, geographies or managers;
Enable access to best-in-class specialist managers not always available to other investors; and
Deliver an enhanced liquidity profile for our investors, while giving them immediate investment exposure.

Capital at risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise, and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance provides no guarantee for the future.
