Why Diversified Credit

Our Focus

We focus on originating long-dated, listed and unlisted credit assets for our investors. Our aim is to diversify credit exposure across a range of asset classes by building on existing funding relationships, while actively seeking new opportunities.

Core asset classes include corporate loans and bonds, secured property finance, leveraged finance and funding SOEs.

As a team, we are also focused on offering credit support and ongoing deal management on behalf of our investors. We also prioritise the importance of integrating ESG (environmental, social and governance) concerns into all strategies. In a rapidly changing arena, ESG is not only fundamental to investment in a better future, but a driver of investment value.
