Barings will showcase the investment opportunities available in credit at the IV Funds Society Investment Summit in Houston.
The event, scheduled for February 29th at the JW Marriott Houston by The Galleria, will feature Fred Bates, Managing Director of BECON IM, presenting the Barings Global Senior Secured Bond Fund and Barings Private Credit Corporation strategies.
Regarding the Barings Global Senior Secured Bond Fund, it is “a developed markets bond fund with daily liquidity that invests exclusively in bonds that are senior in an issuer’s capital structure and are directly secured by collateral,” according to the firm’s description.
On the other hand, the Barings Private Credit Corporation is “a semi-liquid direct lending solution with variable rate managed by one of the sector’s largest private credit managers.”
After the experts’ presentations, guests will be transported to the NRG Stadium to enjoy the Houston’s Livestock Show and Rodeo from the Funds Society’s private suite.
