Riverwest Investment Management

The firm concentrates on structured credit and securitized products, including agency and non-agency RMBS, CMBS, CLOs, and ABS. It invests across the credit-quality spectrum, from investment-grade to high-yield, and has historically evaluated opportunistic European structured credit. The firm's long-only and alternative credit strategies are built on bottom-up credit research.

A small, senior portfolio management team makes investment decisions through a credit committee structure. The firm emphasizes direct principal involvement, which it argues reduces the agency risks common at multi-strategy platforms where credit is one of many asset classes. This governance model is designed to promote nimble, cycle-aware capital deployment.

The firm has historically managed both commingled funds and institutional separate accounts. Separate accounts allow clients to tailor duration targets, credit-quality floors, and sector exposures. Commingled vehicles provide pooled access to structured-credit strategies for investors that do not require custom mandates.
