Stanislaus County Considers $118M Opportunistic Credit Investment

At the October 22 board meeting for the Stanislaus County Employees’ Retirement Association, pension staff and NEPC moved to recommend allocating 4% of the portfolio to the NIS Credit Opportunistic Credit Fund, a value of approximately $118M. 

The opportunistic credit strategy combines a traditional bond, high-yield bond, and preferred stock strategy with the goal of outperforming US high-yield bonds over a full market cycle, with lower volatility. In order to reach its goal, the strategy focuses on the active management of credit risk. 

The Stanislaus County Employees’ Retirement Association has a market value of approximately $2.8B, according to Dakota data.
