SLSCsif
Swan Long Short Credit Sicav-SIF is the alternative version of our Fixed Income Intermediate risk profile. Launched on July 2013, it replaces the previous fund managed with the same strategy since December 2008.
It combines a buy and hold global portfolio of short duration debt instruments ( < 18 months - Yield Type Portfolio), mainly sub-investment grade, with a long short global credit portfolio ( > 18 months - Active Portfolio), that invests mainly in High Yield and Emerging Markets corporate securities.
The target credit exposure on the Active portfolio is determined on a weekly basis by a multi-factorial analytical framework (CAS - Credit Allocation Scoring). Active strategies are deployed mainly via Bonds and CDS. Maximun net exposure is normally 150%, maximum gross exposure is normally 300%.
