ARISTOTLE CREDIT
Aristotle Credit Partners, LLC is a privately owned, registered investment adviser that specializes in managing fully integrated ESG corporate credit strategies including: High Yield Bond, Short Duration High Yield, Investment Grade Corporate Bond and Strategic Credit Strategies. In addition to their ESG integrated strategies, we have the experience and ability to manage custom SRI strategies (i.e. faith-based, carbon fuel free, custom ESG) for institutional and advisory clients. We are one of four independent investment teams which collectively operate under a unified platform known as Aristotle. Our mission is to add value with active portfolio management to help our clients reach their long-term financial goals.
INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
The combination of top-down and bottom-up analysis can lead to the most comprehensive perspective on opportunities in the corporate credit market.
We believe the integration of our proprietary Environmental, Social and Governance analysis further strengthens our credit selection process and risk-adjusted returns while positively impacting sustainability.
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.
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.

COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY
At Aristotle, we are committed to active participation in our communities both locally and internationally. We partner with a number of outstanding organizations and nonprofits that advance health, education, the arts and human services not only to support their valuable missions but also to enrich our own lives through teamwork and continuous learning. From walking to support St. Jude to mentoring youth to volunteering in neighborhoods in great economic need, Aristotle strives to make a meaningful difference in our communities.
Each Holiday Season, Aristotle makes a monetary donation on behalf of our clients to a charity determined by our employees. In the past, our contributions have included Direct Relief, Disabled American Veterans, the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, American Red Cross (Hurricane Harvey Relief), and Chrysalis.
In 2020, Aristotle partnered with School on Wheels to host a virtual backpack drive with employee match to provide support to homeless students in need to continue their education during these challenging times. In 2019, over 200,000 students K-12 lacked stable housing in California, and were disproportionately Latinx and Black. With COVID-19 this number is expected to significantly increase. School on Wheels is a Los Angeles-based non-profit focused on bringing academic resources and free tutors to children experiencing homelessness. We believe every child has potential and deserves to be supported.
Special thanks to our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council for bringing attention to this crisis and coordinating this event.
