BECON Investment Management, in partnership with New Capital, announced on Monday the close of the fifth issuance of Fixed Maturity Bond Funds, significantly surpassing initial expectations, according to a statement.
“With this latest issuance, which raised 65 million dollars, the total for the five series exceeds USD 400 million, consolidating both firms’ positions as leaders in the fixed-income market for Latin American and US Offshore investors,” the statement adds.
Fred Bates, an executive at BECON IM, highlighted the success of the FMP series, affirming that “we are committed to continuing to launch new products and share classes that are relevant to our clients in the US Offshore and Latam markets. New Capital is a highly dynamic firm with the ability to quickly adapt to investors’ needs.”
Juan Fagotti, also an executive at BECON IM, emphasized the depth and diversity of New Capital’s product offerings, underscoring the importance of providing tailored solutions for each investor profile.
“Each of the five fixed maturity funds, with maturities staggered from 2025 to 2029, has been marked by a rigorous and diversified investment strategy focused on active bond selection, geographic diversification, and active risk management,” said representatives from BECON IM.
“The success of this fund series reflects the growing demand for fixed-income products among investors in Latin America and the US Offshore market. In an environment of low-interest rates and high uncertainty, investors are seeking investment alternatives that combine stability and potential returns,” they added.
In addition to the Fixed Maturity Bond Funds, New Capital offers the New Capital USD Shield Fund (a short-duration, high-quality fixed-income fund) and the New Capital Global Value Credit Fund (a fund focused on relative value corporate bonds, designed for investors with a longer-term investment horizon and tolerance for a higher level of risk).
