Our investment expertise is built on a deep understanding of global markets, with Emerging markets being at the core of our DNA

What We Focus On

Our Core Focus Areas

Emerging Market Debt (High Beta)

We focus on high-yield debt from emerging market sovereigns and corporates, seeking opportunities in high-beta assets that exhibit increased volatility and the potential for higher returns. Our strategy emphasizes tactical positioning based on macroeconomic trends, political developments, and regional credit dynamics. By actively managing risk and duration, we aim to capture superior yield premiums while minimizing downside risk in a volatile environment.

Frontier Market Debt/Equity

Frontier markets offer high growth potential but also come with increased risk and volatility. Our strategy targets both sovereign and corporate debt, seeking to capitalize on mispricing and dislocations. We also invest in equity opportunities, focusing on high-growth companies with strong potential in sectors like infrastructure and demographics. This dual approach enables us to capture value across the capital structure, diversify risk, and maximize returns while managing risks related to liquidity, political instability, and currency fluctuations.

Private Credit

We provide capital to emerging market companies through private debt investments. Our focus is on selectively sourcing bespoke financing opportunities in the middle-market segment, where traditional credit sources may be limited. Our private debt strategy involves partnering with businesses that show strong growth potential and providing tailored financing solutions designed to meet their needs, while generating attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors.

Distressed Debt strategy

We focus on identifying mispriced opportunities within emerging markets, where economic or corporate stress has created dislocations in credit markets. By targeting distressed debt instruments—such as bonds, loans, and structured notes—we aim to capitalize on the inefficiencies arising from temporary dislocations, market overreactions, and legal or operational complexities. Our deep local knowledge and extensive network enable us to assess creditworthiness, navigate regulatory landscapes, and identify underappreciated assets. With a disciplined approach to risk management and a long-term value perspective, we seek to generate substantial returns by unlocking the intrinsic value of distressed assets while mitigating downside risk through active restructuring and recovery strategies.
