Alternative Credit

Despite continued political and economic uncertainty, credit spreads remain tight, leaving allocators searching for ways to diversify portfolios and make credit allocations work harder. In this environment, less traditional areas of credit are attracting growing attention for their potential to offer differentiated sources of return and diversification.

In this series of highlight interviews, we explore key themes including:

Opportunities across securitised credit & CLOs
The role of hybrid capital in diversified portfolios
Balancing risk, return and resilience in a tighter-spread environment
