Our offering

We specialize in fund-of-funds strategies that identify top-tier global private debt asset managers. Our investment options include three key routes: Direct Lending, Asset-Based Lending, and Special Situations. Recently, we launched an innovative private credit secondaries strategy, that aims to provide clients with opportunities in a burgeoning market that targets both LP-led and GP-led transactions.

Our approach

We prioritize senior secured floating rate loans, while selectively evaluating subordinated and junior debt in commingled or dedicated funds across Europe, the UK, the US, and Asia-Pacific. We focus on defensive sectors benefiting from strong structural trends and experienced management teams with a consistent, strong track record.

Diversification through a single solution

Funds of funds provide professional investors with a streamlined way to access multiple private debt strategies within a single product, enabling significant portfolio diversification. Investments in private credit secondaries enable investors to quickly generate significant returns, achieve high diversification, and mitigate the J-curve effect.

Experienced management & institutional backing

With extensive experience in selecting and managing private debt asset managers for Generali Group, our senior team brings deep expertise and a disciplined approach to asset manager selection. We now offer professional clients the opportunity to invest in our private debt fund-of-funds and secondaries strategies alongside Generali Group, the cornerstone investor and one of the world’s largest institutional investors.
