We use intensive, bottom-up research to identify investment grade and high quality issuers with robust long-term businesses. We then analyze and select bond issues from lower down the company’s capital structure to earn attractive yields. Focusing only where we see the richest opportunity set, for instance within the financial sector and in hybrid bonds, we build a highly diversified portfolio of conviction ideas which has relatively low correlation to benchmarks and traditional credit funds.
