Alternative Fixed Income

Distressed Debt, Structured Credit and Direct Lending

Objective

Our three alternative fixed income strategies – distressed debt, structured credit and direct lending – 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 often less efficient and more labour-intensive than traditional credit markets, with, typically, higher barriers to entry;
for each portfolio it is possible to reduce overall risk by creating diversified pools of specialist credit managers with complementary expertise and approaches; and
each of these strategies can generate enhanced returns versus traditional fixed income.

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.

There’s a saying in Dutch, Kom verder, it means many things and it’s our business philosophy. It captures the way we work with clients but also the way we steer our investee companies to deliver shareholder value through active engagement.

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.
