CFA Society San Diego continues its Distinguished Speaker Series by hosting a discussion with Chris Gootkind, CFA, co-Director of Credit Research at
Loomis, Sayles & Company.
Credit markets have become increasingly commoditized, automated, and dis-intermediated. The growth of Significant Risk Transfers (SRTs), portfolio trading strategies, and the rise of Private Credit, has coincided with multi-year year lows in credit risk premia. How do investors in the $12 Trillion US Investment Grade and High Yield markets navigate these trends while still adding alpha to their clients’ portfolios? Are these new products and strategies masking long-term risk of loss-given default, or can investors use them to optimize returns and reduce tracking error? Chris will share his thoughts, supported by Loomis Sayles’ proprietary insights and his experiences over decades of credit cycles and thought leadership.
