Philosophy

Investment Philosophy

We seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns by investing in the higher quality, liquid, non-distressed segments of the corporate credit market. In addition to synthesizing macroeconomic insights with bottom-up credit research, we believe the integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into our analysis strengthens the credit selection process and risk‐adjusted returns while positively impacting sustainability.

TOP-DOWN/BOTTOM-UP ANALYSIS
The combination of top-down and bottom-up analysis can lead to the most comprehensive perspective on opportunities in the corporate credit market.
FULL ESG INTEGRATION
We believe the integration of our proprietary ESG analysis further strengthens our credit selection process and risk-adjusted returns while positively impacting sustainability.
FOCUS ON NON-DISTRESSED CREDIT
Investing in the liquid, non-distressed segments of the corporate credit market reduces the probability of default and can lead to a more advantageous risk/reward trade-off.
DISCIPLINED RISK MANAGEMENT
We believe selecting fundamentally strong credits is the most important aspect of managing risk. We supplement our credit research with proprietary quantitative tools to monitor portfolio metrics and remove bias from our investment process.
