Active fundamental management approach

Our portfolio managers take an in-depth top-down and bottom-up approach to develop their convictions and pick out the best potential issues at any given time.

Team-based approach

We take a collegial approach, as portfolio managers, credit and ESG analysts, strategists, economists and quantitative analysts work together in a multi-expert strategy to form investment decisions on a daily basis.

Highly-organized portfolio construction

Our portfolio managers draw on proprietary tools across the entire process from portfolio weighting to actively managing the risk budget.

ESG integration

Our selection process is built on analysis of ESG materiality - the impact of Environmental, Social and Governance criteria on issuers' credit quality.
