Core Based​

Investment Goal

We seek to produce attractive risk-adjusted total returns above the broad fixed income market by investing primarily in U.S. fixed income securities across the government, corporate and structured markets, supplemented with U.S. high yield bonds and international bonds in both developed and emerging markets.

Our Approach

While the macro environment may change, our philosophy in seeking alpha remains the same: remaining neutral on duration, avoiding interest rate bets, and employing rigorous bottom-up analysis to identify undervalued credits.
