Our Investment Philosophy
The cornerstone of our investment philosophy is to seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors through rigorous due diligence at the industry, company and individual security level. We seek to maximize expected, not potential, return through fundamentals-driven, bottom-up security selection that leverages the depth and experience of our investment team.
A Dynamic Approach to Credit Investing
Bain Capital Credit’s teams are structured into a network that enables us to respond to varied investment opportunities, regardless of region, industry or position in the capital structure, which increases the breadth of our pipeline. Our investment professionals are organized in teams of specialists based on either industry type or product type, which we believe enables us to field the optimal team to evaluate every deal.
Liquid and Multi-Asset Credit (MAC)
Bain Capital Credit’s Liquid Credit strategies seek to identify relative value opportunities primarily across bank loans and high-yield bonds, with tactical allocations to other asset classes depending on a vehicle’s risk and liquidity objectives.
CLOs and Structured Credit
Our Structured Credit team provides extensive knowledge on Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs), combining a longstanding track record of structuring and management with a disciplined trading and investment approach.
Private Credit
The Private Credit group focuses on direct lending opportunities across the capital structure to companies globally with EBITDA ranging from $10 million to $150 million.
Distressed and Special Situations
Our Distressed and Special Situations strategy’s breadth and flexible capital enable our funds to participate in a differentiated, global set of investment opportunities, including single-name corporate debt, capital solutions and rescue financings, and non-performing loan (“NPL”) portfolios.
Industry Research Group
Our Industry Research Group is organized into fourteen teams, each responsible for monitoring micro and macro trends and for reviewing and selecting attractively priced securities across the capital structures within their sectors. Based upon underlying industry drivers, teams are organized so as to provide local or global insights.
Strategies Across the Credit Spectrum
Bain Capital Credit deploys capital across a range of strategies with differing risk/return targets and varying vehicle structures. We offer commingled funds and separate accounts across a spectrum of liquidity parameters, asset exposures and geographic concentrations tailored to meet investors’ needs.
