Credit Analysis

We believe that thorough issuer selection by rigorous, bottom-up credit research will, in the long run, produce superior returns with lower volatility. Through our in-house forensic research we aim to achieve maximum transparency in order to properly identify and value risks.

Team Based Decision Making

Team-based decision making is key in taking high quality investment decisions. We use the knowledge, experience and expertise of every team member for every investment decision in order to asses risks from multiple professional viewpoints.

Risk Management

Risky asset classes have to be managed in a conservative way with strict limits and controls. We look past traditional measures of volatility and value risk on the basis of credit quality and recovery analysis in order to turn volatility of the markets to our advantage.
