    The opportunity for outperformance in stressed and distressed credit

The Pender Credit Opportunities Fund is a limited partnership fund focused on deeply discounted stressed and distressed small and middle marketing public credit issuers.

  • We believe outperformance opportunities exist due to high capital scarcity, less competition from other capital providers and our ability to engage in proactive credit management.
  • We have consistently invested in stressed and distressed credits since 2015, with a specialized skill set and process that have proven resilient across a range of marketing environments.
