Brevan Howard managers talk about BH Credit Catalysts Fund

Benedicte Gravrand, Opalesque Geneva:

In a recent Opalesque podcast, Sona Blessing interviewed Charlotte Valeur and Jennifer Drake who shared their insights on the Brevan Howard (BH) Credit Catalysts Limited Fund ("Fund"), a listed closed-ended fund domiciled in Guernsey which invests all of its assets (net of short-term working capital) in the shares of the BH Credit Catalysts Master Fund Ltd. ("BHCCMF" or the "Master Fund").

Charlotte Valeur, Chair of the Brevan Howard Credit Catalysts Limited Fund and Managing Director of GFG Ltd, a governance consultancy she founded in 2011, says the Fund was started in 2010 as a feeder of the BHCCMF, which manages approximately $4.9bn in assets.

Valeur explains that the Fund was created for those investors who cannot invest in the Master Fund because of its minimum investment requirement, $5m, and its restricted liquidity terms. DW Investment Management, LP ("DW") is the investment manager of the feeder and Master Fund while Brevan Howard provides the vehicles with an "overlay in terms of risk and oversight." BH Credit Catalysts Limited through the Master Fund invests in various credit strategies, she says. Corporate governance and transparency are very important to her; the bar is constantly rising to adhere to and meet the needs of investors’ expectations.
