In private markets our objective is to invest in best-in-class venture and growth-stage companies, and endeavor to be helpful, long-term partners to the founders.
In credit we primarily seek to generate current income through originating or participating in private, senior secured, floating rate loans for companies looking for funding solutions.
In public markets we aim to create uncorrelated return streams focused on special situations. We aim to be different and uncorrelated.
