Fund Information
Investment Approach and Philosophy
Canso Investment Counsel is an independent investment manager with a focus on
corporate credit managing over $15 billion AUM. The investment team consists of 5
senior investment professionals, each with 20+ years’ experience and 14 additional
analysts with experience in corporate bond, equity, corporate banking, and bondrating agency backgrounds.
The Canso investment approach is focused on fundamental research & security
selection. Canso believes that cheap investments are not popular and buyers must
do independent research to find under-valued securities. Canso does not make
investment decisions based on macro-viewpoints like term or yield curve
forecasting. Canso’s proprietary research emphasizes “bottom up” and “deep value”
credit analysis, concentrating on the selection of individual securities.
This independent credit expertise & investment management experience enables
Canso to buy securities when they are out of favour and priced cheaply. Typically,
investments are purchased with the intention to be held to maturity, however, when
market prices exceed valuation expectations or a better value security is discovered,
the securities may be sold. The portfolio managers will also shift to higher quality
securities if risk premiums are not attractive enough.
