Over 20 years of experience deploying relative value strategies across fixed income markets for institutional investors
Garda embraces one investment strategy with one focus: Protect and grow capital for institutional investors who entrust their money to us so they can deliver on their promises to their stakeholders. Our rigorous approach to fixed income relative value investing, and our integrity, has earned us the trust of investors and counterparties over many market cycles. We take this responsibility seriously, and we work hard to meet it with distinction.
“We invest heavily on the front end of any partnership to ensure it’s a good fit for each of us. We work closely with our investors and their advisors to make sure they understand the nature of the opportunities that we pursue, our investment philosophy, and how we utilize leverage to implement our strategies. It is equally imperative that we are confident that we can deliver on the investors’ stated long term investment objectives.”
