The Oaktree ABF strategy:
Oaktree Asset Backed Finance (“ABF”) is a recently formed strategy which invests in pools of contractual assets, or “assets”, such as loans, leases, receivables, mortgages and licensing agreements, which may or may not reference property or other hard assets. Asset categories include corporate, consumer, real estate, transportation, equipment, infrastructure, energy, intellectual property and other esoteric types.
Purchases, or commits to purchase, assets, with or without leverage
Lends, or commits to lend, secured by assets, in a senior or mezzanine position
Insures, or provides capital relief against, assets
Provides essential capital to a business primarily engaged in the origination and servicing of assets
While Oaktree has significant experience successfully investing client capital in ABF opportunities as a sub-allocation to existing funds, Oaktree ABF represents Oaktree’s first client offering dedicated to ABF. Based on the expanding ABF opportunity set and client demand, Oaktree ABF is expected to grow significantly. Oaktree judges the ABF Strategy’s success and value by outcomes delivered to clients, consistent with or exceeding expectations, over the medium and long term.
