Key documents
Objective
The strategy provides a single point of access to BlueBay’s best ideas across long/short credit, global macro and less liquid leveraged finance markets.
Fund specific risks
For further terms related to the objective, investment policy and overall risk and reward profile please refer to the prospectus.
- Liquidity Risk: There can be no assurance that the liquidity of the investments of Underlying Funds will always be sufficient to meet redemption requests as, and when, made. Any lack of liquidity may affect the liquidity of the Shares of the Sub-Fund and the value of its investments.
- Concentration Risk: Each Underlying Fund may at certain times hold relatively few investments and may itself invest in another Underlying Fund. The Fund could be subject to significant losses if it, through one or more Underlying Funds, has exposure to a large position in a particular investment that declines in value or is otherwise adversely affected, including default of the issuer.
- Debt Securities: The Underlying Funds may invest in debt securities which may be unrated by a recognised credit rating agency or below investment grade and which are subject to greater risk of loss of principal and interest than higher-rated debt securities.
- Leverage Risk: Certain Underlying Funds in which the Fund may invest operate with a substantial degree of leverage. This leverage presents the potential for a higher rate of total return but will also increase the volatility of the Fund, including the risk of a total loss of the amount invested.

Market opportunity
The opportunity set in credit is currently heightened relative to recent history. Absolute yields are elevated, and fixed income volatility has taken a significant leg higher as central banks have embarked on global rate hikes
By combining different credit orientated hedge fund strategies into a single fund we can benefit from their strong return profiles while reducing volatility by combing low correlated strategies. The result is increased consistency of returns and volatility
