The webinar features Portfolio Manager Frits Lieuw-Kie-Song discussing market-neutral credit at a time when traditional “safe havens” have proved less defensive than many investors expected. He explains how Ironshield Capital’s approach is built around deep fundamental analysis, strict hedging discipline and a clear focus on downside protection, rather than relying on broad macro or market direction calls.
Frits also discusses how the portfolio is designed to remain resilient during meaningful market sell-offs, with continuous stress testing used to adjust exposures and manage risk through changing market conditions.
He also explains why today’s environment is well suited to this strategy. Elevated credit dispersion, sector stress and AI-driven disruption are creating more mispricing across high yield markets, both in attractive long opportunities and in weaker credits suited to shorts.
The webinar ultimately focuses on why experience, specialisation and hedging discipline matter in credit markets today, and why market-neutral credit may be particularly relevant in a more volatile, company-specific environment.
