BBH’s Credit Alternatives investment unit focuses on alternative opportunities in swiftly growing segments of the credit markets, including asset-backed securities (ABS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and business development companies (BDCs). Its experienced investment team is a lead investor in all of these segments. The Credit Alternatives investment team manages over $12b AUM, which are a key constituent of BBH’s structured fixed income strategy (on behalf of dozens of SMA clients and multiple commingled funds) as well as BBH’s taxable fixed income strategies. In addition to debt investments, the team is also an active investor in difficult to source, higher return equity and residual investments that are in high demand from alternatives investors. The team is entrepreneurial in its search for value, leverages its deep relationships with hundreds of issuers and underwriters, and commits to the highest level of integrity in its analysis and investment process. The Alt Credit Analyst is a junior analyst investment position responsible for evaluating structured fixed income securities, making investment recommendations and helping evaluate other proposed investments in a team context. With a particular focus on Business Development Companies (BDC's) plus Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”), this person will also gain exposure to Asset-Backed Securities ("ABS"). This position analyzes the durability, management and financial structure of individual structured fixed income issuers, as well as sector dynamics, and valuation discrepancies between securities, sectors and grades. The Alt Credit Analyst works collaboratively with other analysts, traders and portfolio managers to support the investment of our structured fixed income portfolios. This position is expected to focus on CLOs across credit grades from Investment Grade through Sub-Investment Grade tranches, but will also interact with Consumer and Commercial Asset Backed Securities (“ABS”). No prior experience is necessary; this is a full-time position open to college graduates or individuals looking to deepen their career in credit alternatives.
