About Orange Investment Advisor’s Approach
Orange’s approach involves an active, value-based security selection strategy that seeks to identify and acquire underpriced bonds by capitalizing on the complexity, diversity, and inefficiency of the non-index Structured Credit market.
The strategy is designed to extract the superior risk-adjusted excess returns available in the Structured Credit market relative to the Aggregate Index sectors, while targeting a risk profile lower than the Index.
Interest Rate Risk, Credit Risk, and Liquidity Risk are meticulously managed in an attempt to preserve excess returns.
"We believe that a good fixed income product should satisfy certain Investment Objectives."
"Delivering on these objectives is challenging, requiring an Investment Strategy that is a unique combination of the right manager characteristics, investment style and market domain."
