Eos Credit Opportunities (“ECO”) invests primarily in corporate bonds and bank debt, including par performing, stressed and distressed investments, as well as preferred securities and related equities, with a primary focus in North America. The manager seeks to utilize intensive private equity style due diligence and a disciplined value approach to identify investment opportunities in three general categories: (i) Strategic Income: valuable business franchises with compelling yields relative to credit quality; (ii) Event Driven: characterized by identifiable events that either produce value discounts or which we expect to close valuation discounts; and (iii) Sector Based: investment opportunities identified through extensive industry coverage and expertise. Our flexible mandate enables us to modify ECO’s allocations as value opportunities in credit markets develop.
Consistent with its long-term, private equity style investing, ECO developed and adopted an Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) policy to integrate these topics into our investment analysis where they can influence risk-adjusted returns.
