Featured Investment Approach
Credit Opportunities
Our Credit Opportunities approach is designed for investors who wish to take advantage of opportunities brought about by the recent turmoil in credit markets and who can tolerate significant potential volatility and risk over an indeterminate period of time.
What is the investment philosophy?
The investment philosophy of this approach is that through disciplined credit research and analysis one can identify high-quality, fundamentally solid securities within sectors that have been particularly impacted by the recent market dislocation.
What is the investment objective?
The objective is to seek an attractive net absolute return over the life of the approach.
How is the Portfolio managed?
This approach emphasizes security selection as the primary driver of performance. The security selection process for all securities begins with fundamental credit research and analysis. Wellington Management's proprietary, bottom-up research resources are broad and deep, including 30 credit analysts, 13 fixed income quantitative analysts, and 53 global industry analysts.
- We have an up-in-quality bias at this time.

- We seek to be providers of liquidity in sectors where we will be amply rewarded.
- We believe that a multi sector approach offers a measure of diversification.
