A Conversation on Credit Systematic Perspective

Active, systematic approaches to credit are relatively uncommon, but offer important insights into an enormous opportunity set. Given recent moves in rates globally, these insights are increasingly valuable. We believe this warrants further examination and presents opportunities for investors.

In this 45-minute conversation, we will:

Explore the current credit landscape through a systematic lens.
Examine the drivers of persistent excess returns in credit.
Evaluate how systematic approaches to credit investing are diversifying relative to traditional discretionary approaches.
