Private Structured Credit

Objective

To seek strong risk-adjusted returns on predominately investment-grade investments while opportunistically adding non-investment grade investments with the goal of enhancing overall returns.

Companies are increasingly turning to private equity and debt markets to help fund business investment and growth around the globe. An increase in financial regulations along with the volatility of public-market pricing is pushing many issuers to pursue private-debt solutions. MetLife Investment Management's Private Structured Credit strategy attempts to capitalize on these market shifts by working with issuers and bankers to provide well-structured financing solutions that seek to enhance yield for our clients.

Why Private Structured Credit

  • Sizable market opportunity
  • Investment diversification into sectors and structures that may not be found in public markets
  • Privately negotiated debt terms that seek to help protect investments
  • Historically higher spreads than comparably rated Private Structured Credit investments
