Griffin Institutional Access Credit Fund
Notes to Quarterly Consolidated Schedule of Investments
September 30, 2021 (Unaudited)
Griffin Institutional Access Credit Fund (the “Fund”) is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund was organized as a statutory trust on April 5, 2016 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Fund commenced operations on April 3, 2017 and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares with no par value. The Fund engages in a continuous offering of shares and operates as an interval fund that offers quarterly repurchases of shares at net asset value. The Fund’s investment adviser is Griffin Capital Credit Advisor, LLC (the “Adviser”), and BCSF Advisors, LP (the “Sub-Adviser”), an affiliate of Bain Capital Credit, LP, serves as the Fund’s sub-adviser. Both the Adviser and Sub-Adviser are registered as investment advisers with the SEC pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The investment objective of the Fund is to generate a return comprised of both current income and capital appreciation with an emphasis on current income with low volatility and low correlation to the broader markets. The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing in a range of secured and unsecured debt obligations, which may be syndicated, consisting of U.S. high yield securities, global high yield securities, direct lending investments including direct originated debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), and other fixed-income and fixed-income related securities. The portfolio may consist of high yield bonds, bank loans, equity securities, CLOs, and direct lending investments, which may include senior direct lending (“SDL”) as well as subordinate and unitranche direct lending. The Fund may also acquire warrants and other equity interests through its direct lending activities. The portfolio may also consist of, to a lesser extent, special situations investments such as non-performing loans (“NPLs”). In pursuing its investment objective, the Fund may also directly or indirectly invest in derivative investments.
The Fund currently offers Class A, Class C, Class I, Class L, and Class M shares. Class A, Class C and Class I shares commenced operations on April 3, 2017. Class L shares commenced operations on September 5, 2017. Class F shares commenced operations on September 25, 2017 and are no longer offered except for reinvestment of dividends. Class M shares commenced operations on November 2, 2021. Class A and Class L shares are offered subject to a maximum sales charge of 5.75% and 4.25%, respectively, of their offering price. Class C, Class I, and Class M shares are offered at net asset value per share. Class C shares may be subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge on shares redeemed during the first 365 days after their purchase. Each class represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund and classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures and ongoing service and distribution charges. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plans. The Fund’s income, expenses (other than class specific service and distribution fees), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated proportionately each day based upon the relative net assets of each class. An affiliate of the Adviser owns shares in the Fund representing 1.61% of net asset value as of September 30, 2021.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation – The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its consolidated financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund is considered an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 – Financial Services – Investment Companies. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Consolidation of GIACF Alternative Holdings, LLC – GIACF Alternative Holdings, LLC, (the “NPL Subsidiary”), a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, was formed on September 18, 2018. The NPL Subsidiary acts as an investment vehicle for the Fund in order to effect certain NPL investments for the Fund. The Fund is the managing and sole member of the NPL Subsidiary pursuant to a limited liability company operating agreement. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, the financial results of the NPL Subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements and financial highlights of the Fund. All investments held by the NPL Subsidiary are disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The NPL Subsidiary has received an undertaking from the Government of the Cayman Islands exempting it from all local income, profits and capital gains taxes. No such taxes are levied in the Cayman Islands at the present time. For U.S. income tax purposes, the NPL Subsidiary is a Controlled Foreign Corporation, which generates and is allocated no income that is considered effectively connected with U.S. trade of business and, as such, is not subject to U.S. income tax. However, as a wholly-owned Controlled Foreign Corporation, the NPL Subsidiary’s net income and capital gain, to the extent of its earnings and profits, will be included each year in the Fund’s investment company taxable income.
Consolidation of CRDTX SPV I, LLC – CRDTX SPV I, LLC (the "Financing Subsidiary"), a Delaware Limited Liability Company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, was formed on November 27, 2018. The Fund and CRDTX SPV I, LLC, are party to a secured revolving credit facility with Citibank, N.A. ("Citi Credit Facility") subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act for borrowings. The Citi Credit Facility allows the Financing Subsidiary to borrow up to $150 million and is secured by all of the assets held by the Financing Subsidiary. The Fund is the managing and sole member of CRDTX SPV I, LLC pursuant to a limited liability company operating agreement and the Fund will remain the sole member and will continue to wholly own and control CRDTX SPV I, LLC. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, the financial results of CRDTX SPV I, LLC are included in the consolidated financial statements and financial highlights of the Fund. Assets pledged as collateral by CRDTX SPV I, LLC under the secured revolving credit facility are disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Single-Asset Subsidiaries – Certain investments of the Fund will be held in single-asset subsidiaries controlled by the Fund (the “Single-Asset Subsidiaries”). The Single-Asset Subsidiaries are generally formed as needed to hold a particular equity investment obtained in private transactions. The financial statements of the Single-Asset Subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements and financial highlights of the Fund. The equity holdings of the Single-Asset Subsidiaries are disclosed in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Fund will generally consolidate any wholly-owned or controlled subsidiary. For purposes of the Fund’s investment restrictions, guidelines and limitations, the Fund will aggregate direct investments with investment exposure provided by its wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries.
Security Valuation – The Fund’s net asset value per share is calculated, on a class-specific basis, by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets (the value of the securities the Fund holds plus cash or other assets, including interest accrued but not yet received), less accrued expenses and other liabilities of the Fund by the total number of shares outstanding. During the continuous offering, the price of the shares will increase or decrease on a daily basis according to the net asset value of the shares.
Portfolio securities held by the Fund are valued at their current market values determined on the basis of market or dealer quotations from independent pricing services approved by the Board. If market or dealer quotations are not readily available or deemed unreliable, the Board will determine in good faith, the fair value of such securities. For securities that are fair valued in ordinary course of Fund operations, the Board has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for determining fair valuation to the Fair Value Pricing Committee in accordance with the policies approved by the Board. In determining the fair value of a security for which there are no readily available market or dealer quotations, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, together with the Fair Value Pricing Committee, will take into account all reasonably available information that may be relevant to a particular security including, but not limited to: pricing history, current market level, supply and demand of the respective security; the enterprise value of the portfolio company; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, comparison to the values and current pricing of publicly traded securities that have comparable characteristics; comparison to publicly traded securities including factors such as yield, maturity, and credit quality; knowledge of historical market information with respect to the security; fundamental analytical data, such as periodic financial statements, and other factors or information relevant to the security, issuer, or market. The Fund has also retained the services of third-party valuation firms to review valuations of certain securities for which market or dealer quotations are unavailable or deemed unreliable and to assist in determining fair value where applicable, however, the ultimate determination of fair value will be made by the Board and not by such third-party valuation firm. Fair valuation involves subjective judgments, and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may differ materially from the value that could be realized upon the sale of the security.
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are typically valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent pricing service. The aggregate settlement values and notional amounts of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts will not be recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. However, fluctuations in the value of the forward foreign currency exchange contracts will be recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset or liability and in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until terminated.
Fair Value Measurements – In accordance with ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, a three-tier hierarchy has been established to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under GAAP, the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value, as follows:
Level 1 | – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date; |
Level 2 | – | Quoted prices which are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability at the measurement date; and |
Level 3 | – | Significant unobservable prices or inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
An investment level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input, individually or in the aggregate, that is significant to fair value measurement. The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the period ended September 30, 2021 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs.
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s investments as of September 30, 2021:

The Fund used valuation techniques consistent with the income approach and market approach to determine the fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of September 30, 2021. The valuation techniques utilized by the Fund included enterprise value analysis, discounted cash flows analysis, and yield analysis. The enterprise value analysis measures fair value of a portfolio company based upon an assessment of multiples such as EBITDA or revenue that are typically determined through review of market comparable transactions and publicly traded comparable companies. Such multiples are subsequently applied to the underlying portfolio company financial multiple, generally EBITDA or revenue, to estimate enterprise value. Total enterprise value is first allocated to the debt holders and then allocated across the capital structure reflecting applicable rights and preferences of the remaining equity securities to determine fair value of certain of the Fund’s equity interests. The significant unobservable input used in the enterprise value analysis is generally the EBITDA or revenue multiple. The Fund also utilized the discounted cash flows analysis to measure fair value of certain of the Fund’s equity and debt investments. The discounted cash flows analysis is a technique whereby future expected cash flows of the underlying investment are discounted to determine a present value using a discount rate. The significant unobservable input used in the discounted cash flows analysis is the discount rate. The yield analysis technique measures fair value of an investment based upon an assessment of expected market yields of other businesses of similar size in the same industry which are used to establish a discount rate. Future cash flows are then discounted back to present value using the discount rate to determine fair value of certain of the Fund’s debt investments. The significant unobservable input used in the yield analysis is yield.
Generally, new investments not valued by a third-party pricing service are held at purchase price initially until the investment has been held by the Fund for a full quarter. The Fair Value Pricing Committee subsequently determines the application of a fair value methodology at the next valuation date. The Fair Value Pricing Committee will convene if there has been a material change to the applicable portfolio company between the time of investment and the next valuation date.
The carrying and fair value of the Fund's debt obligation as of September 30, 2021 for which the Fund has determined would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy was $127,645,324.
Securities Transactions, Revenue Recognition and Expenses – The Fund records its investment transactions on a trade date basis. The Fund measures realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, using the specified identification method. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discount and premium to par value on investments acquired are accreted and amortized, respectively, into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized and amortized against or accreted into interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method, as applicable. For the Fund’s investments in revolving bank loans, the cost basis of the investment purchased is adjusted for the cash received for the discount on the total balance committed. The fair value is also adjusted for price appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premium is recorded as interest income.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Distributions received from a limited liability company or limited partnership investments are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital.
Income from securitization vehicles and investments in the equity class securities of CLO vehicles (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded daily using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based upon a calculation of the effective yield to the expected redemption date based on an estimate of future cash flows, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The Fund monitors the expected residual payments, and the effective yield is determined and updated quarterly.
Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable. If at any point the Fund believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual status.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.
Foreign Currency Translation – The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment valuations and other assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Prevailing foreign exchange rates may generally be obtained at the close of the NYSE (normally, 4:00 p.m. EST).
Foreign Securities – The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the ability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. issuers.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Fund places its cash with one banking institution, which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The FDIC limit is $250,000. At various times throughout the year, the amount on deposit may exceed the FDIC limit and subject the Fund to a credit risk. The Fund does not believe that such deposits are subject to any unusual risk associated with investment activities.
Loan Participation and Assignments – The Fund may invest in direct debt instruments, which are interests in amounts owed to lenders or lending syndicates by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers. The Fund’s investments in loans may be in the form of participations in loans or assignments of all or a portion of the loans from third parties. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the “agent”) that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. The Fund may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. The Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the borrower. As a result, the Fund may be subject to the credit risk of both the borrower and the agent that is selling the loan agreement. When the Fund purchases assignments from lenders they acquire direct rights against the borrower of the loan. The Fund may enter into unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. Unfunded loan commitments represent a future obligation in full, even though a percentage of the notional loan amounts may not be utilized by the borrower. When investing in a loan participation, the Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the agent selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt of payments by the agent from the borrower. The Fund may receive a fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit of a floating rate loan. In certain circumstances, the Fund may receive a penalty fee upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan by a borrower. For the period ended September 30, 2021, no penalty fees were received by the Fund. Fees earned or paid are recorded as a component of interest income or interest expense, respectively, on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. At September 30, 2021, the Fund had $13,276,055 at par value in unfunded loan commitments.
Defaulted Securities – The Fund held defaulted securities and/or other securities for which the income has been deemed uncollectible. As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate value of those securities was $1,606,839 representing 0.28% of the Fund's net assets. The Fund doesn't accrue income on securities for which income has been deemed uncollectible. Additionally, the Fund provides for losses on interest of receivable. Such securities have been identified on the accompanying Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
Distributions to Shareholders – The Fund intends to accrue dividends daily and to distribute as of the last business day of each quarter. Distributions of net capital gains are normally accrued and distributed in December. Income and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Indemnification – The Fund indemnifies its Officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on industry experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.
Federal Income Taxes – The Fund intends to continue to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and will distribute all of its taxable income, if any, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the consolidated financial statements.
The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” (more than a fifty percent chance) to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in the Fund’s 2020 returns.
Commitments and Contingencies – In the normal course of business, the Fund's investment activities involve executions, settlement and financing of various transactions resulting in receivables from, and payables to, brokers, dealers and the Fund's custodian. These activities may expose the Fund to risk in the event that such parties are unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Management does not anticipate any material losses from counterparties with whom it conducts business. Consistent with standard business practice, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications, and may be engaged from time to time in various legal actions. The maximum exposure of the Fund under these arrangements and activities is unknown. However, the Fund expects the risk of material loss to be remote.
3. DERIVATIVE TRANSACTIONS
The Fund’s investment objectives allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivative contracts such as forward foreign currency contracts. Forward foreign currency contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward foreign currency contract. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are typically valued at their quoted daily prices obtained from an independent pricing service.
Risk of Investing in Derivatives – The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance. Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per their investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts – The Fund engaged in currency transactions with counterparties during the period ended September 30, 2021 to hedge the value of portfolio securities denominated in particular currencies against fluctuations in relative value or to gain or reduce exposure to certain currencies. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is terminated, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished.
4. PRINCIPAL RISK Factors
In the normal course of business, the Fund invests in financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to such things as changes in the market (market risk) or failure or inability of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). See below for a detailed description of select principal risks. The following list is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all of the potential risks associated with the Fund. For a more comprehensive list of potential risks the Fund may be subject to, please refer to the Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”).
Bank Loans Risk The Fund expects that some of its investments will consist of interests in loans originated by banks and other financial institutions. The loans invested in by the Fund may include term loans and revolving loans, may pay interest at a fixed or floating rate and may be senior or subordinated. Purchasers of bank loans are predominantly commercial banks, investment funds and investment banks. As secondary market trading volumes for bank loans increase, new bank loans are frequently adopting standardized documentation to facilitate loan trading which should improve market liquidity. There can be no assurance as to when or even if this current market illiquidity and volatility will abate or that future levels of supply and demand in bank loan trading will provide an adequate degree of liquidity, that the current period of illiquidity will not persist or worsen and that the market will not experience periods of significant illiquidity in the future. In addition, the Fund will make investments in stressed or distressed bank loans which are often less liquid than performing bank loans. The Fund may utilize total return swaps for the purpose of gaining exposure to bank loans.
CLO Risk In addition to the general risks associated with debt securities and structured products discussed herein, CLOs carry additional risks, including, but not limited to (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the possibility that the investments in CLOs are subordinate to other classes or tranches thereof; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results. CLO equity and junior debt securities that the Fund may acquire are subordinated to more senior tranches of CLO debt. CLO equity and junior debt securities are subject to increased risks of default relative to the holders of superior priority interests in the same securities. In addition, at the time of issuance, CLO equity securities are under-collateralized in that the liabilities of a CLO at inception exceed its total assets. Though not exclusively, the Fund will typically be in a first loss or subordinated position with respect to realized losses on the assets of the CLOs in which it is invested.
Between the closing date and the effective date of a CLO, the CLO collateral manager will generally expect to purchase additional collateral obligations for the CLO. During this period, the price and availability of these collateral obligations may be adversely affected by a number of market factors, including price volatility and availability of investments suitable for the CLO, which could hamper the ability of the collateral manager to acquire a portfolio of collateral obligations that will satisfy specified concentration limitations and allow the CLO to reach the initial par amount of collateral prior to the effective date. An inability or delay in reaching the target initial par amount of collateral may adversely affect the timing and amount of interest or principal payments received by the holders of the CLO debt securities and distributions of the CLO on equity securities and could result in early redemptions which may cause CLO debt and equity investors to receive less than face value of their investment.
The failure by a CLO in which the Fund invests to satisfy financial covenants, including with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in the CLO’s payments to the Fund. In the event that a CLO fails certain tests, holders of CLO senior debt may be entitled to additional payments that would, in turn, reduce the payments the Fund would otherwise be entitled to receive. Separately, the Fund may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting CLO or any other investment the Fund may make. If any of these occur, it could adversely affect the Fund’s operating results and cash flows.
The Fund’s CLO investments are exposed to leveraged credit risk. If certain minimum collateral value ratios and/or interest coverage ratios are not met by a CLO, primarily due to senior secured loan defaults, then cash flow that otherwise would have been available to pay distributions to the Fund on its CLO investments may instead be used to redeem any senior notes or to purchase additional senior secured loans, until the ratios again exceed the minimum required levels or any senior notes are repaid in full. The Fund’s CLO investments and/or the underlying senior secured loans may prepay more quickly than expected, which could have an adverse impact on the Fund’s net assets.
Credit Risk There is a risk that debt issuers will not make payments, resulting in losses to the Fund. In addition, the credit quality of securities may be lowered if an issuer’s financial condition changes. Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in shares of the Fund. Lower credit quality also may affect liquidity and make it difficult to sell the security. Default, or the market’s perception that an issuer is likely to default, could reduce the value and liquidity of securities, thereby reducing the value of your investment in Fund shares. In addition, default may cause the Fund to incur expenses in seeking recovery of principal or interest on its portfolio holdings.
Cybersecurity Risk Cybersecurity refers to the combination of technologies, processes and procedures established to protect information technology systems and data from unauthorized access, attack or damage. The Fund and its affiliates and third-party service providers are subject to cybersecurity risks. Cybersecurity risks have significantly increased in recent years and the Fund could suffer such losses in the future. The Fund’s and its affiliates’ and third-party service providers’ computer systems, software and networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses or other malicious code and other events that could have a security impact. If one or more of such events occur, this potentially could jeopardize confidential and other information, including nonpublic personal information and sensitive business data, processed and stored in, and transmitted through, computer systems and networks, or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in the Fund’s operations or the operations of their respective affiliates and third-party service providers. This could result in significant losses, reputational damage, litigation, regulatory fines or penalties, or otherwise adversely affect the Fund’s business, financial condition or results of operations. Privacy and information security laws and regulation changes, and compliance with those changes, may result in cost increases due to system changes and the development of new administrative processes. In addition, the Fund may be required to expend significant additional resources to modify the Fund’s protective measures and to investigate and remediate vulnerabilities or other exposures arising from operational and security risks.
Debt Securities Risk When the Fund invests in debt securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of debt securities. In general, the market price of debt securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect
the value of a particular investment, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types
of investments.
Direct Origination Risk A portion of the Fund’s investment may be originated by certain affiliates of the Sub-Adviser, subject to the conditions of the Fund’s exemptive relief. The results of the Fund’s operations depend on several factors, including the availability of opportunities for the origination or acquisition of target investments, the level and volatility of interest rates, the availability of adequate short and long-term financing, conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions. Further, the Fund’s inability to raise capital and the risk of portfolio company defaults may materially and adversely affect the Fund’s investment originations, business, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and its ability to make distributions to its shareholders. In addition, competition for originations of and investments in the Fund’s target investments may lead to the price of such assets increasing, which may further limit its ability to generate desired returns. Also, as a result of this competition, desirable investments in the Fund’s target investments may be limited in the future and the Fund may not be able to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities from time to time, as the Fund can provide no assurance that the Adviser and Sub-Adviser will be able to identify and make investments that are consistent with its investment objective. Additionally, the Fund may originate certain of its investments with the expectation of later syndicating a portion of such investment to third parties. Prior to such syndication, or if such syndication is not successful, the Fund’s exposure to the originated investment may exceed the exposure that the Adviser and Sub-Adviser intended to have over the long-term or would have had had it purchased such investment in the secondary market rather than originating it.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the value of the foreign currency denominated security will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
High Yield Debt Risk A substantial portion of the high yield debt in which the Fund intends to invest are rated below investment-grade by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations or are unrated but of comparable credit quality to obligations rated below investment-grade, and have greater credit and liquidity risk than more highly rated debt obligations. Lower-rated securities may include securities that have the lowest rating or are in default. High yield debt is generally unsecured and may be subordinate to other obligations of the obligor. The lower rating of high yield debt reflects a greater possibility that adverse changes in the financial condition of the obligor or in general economic conditions (including, for example, a substantial period of rising interest rates or declining earnings) or both may impair the ability of the obligor to make payment of principal and interest. Many issuers of high yield debt are highly leveraged, and their relatively high debt-to-equity ratios create increased risks that their operations might not generate sufficient cash flow to service their debt obligations. In addition, many issuers of high yield debt may be in poor financial condition, experiencing poor operating results, having substantial capital needs or negative net worth or be facing special competitive or product obsolescence problems, and may include companies involved in bankruptcy or other reorganizations or liquidation proceedings. Certain of these securities may not be publicly traded, and therefore it may be difficult to obtain information as to the true condition of the issuers. Overall declines in the below investment-grade bond and other markets may adversely affect such issuers by inhibiting their ability to refinance their debt at maturity. High yield debt is often less liquid than higher rated securities.
Leveraging Risk The use of leverage, such as in connection with derivatives and borrowing money to purchase securities, by the Fund will magnify the Fund’s gains or losses. Generally, the use of leverage also will cause the Fund to have higher expenses (especially interest and/or short selling related dividend expenses) than those of funds that do not use such techniques. In addition, a lender to the Fund may terminate or refuse to renew any credit facility. If the Fund is unable to access additional credit, it may be forced to sell investments at inopportune times, which may further depress the returns on the Fund. Because many derivatives have a leverage component, adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, reference rate or index could result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. When the Fund uses derivatives for leverage, investments in that Fund will tend to be more volatile, resulting in larger gains or losses in response to market changes. In an effort to limit leverage risk, the Fund will earmark assets determined to be liquid to cover its obligations under swap agreements.
LIBOR Risk Holdings of certain of the Fund’s underlying investments may be based on floating rates, such as LIBOR. The London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, is a benchmark that dictates daily interest rates on loans and financial instruments globally. Plans are underway to phase out the use of LIBOR which indicates the continuation of LIBOR and other reference rates on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. Any replacement rate chosen may be less favorable than the current rates. Until the announcement of the replacement rate, the Fund may continue to invest in assets that may reference LIBOR or otherwise use LIBOR. There remains uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate and the impact of the transition from LIBOR on the Fund’s transactions and the financial markets generally. As such, the potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the Fund’s investments cannot yet be determined.
Liquidity of Investments Risk The lack of an established, liquid secondary market for a certain portion of the Fund’s investments may have an adverse effect on the market value of the Fund’s investments and the Fund’s ability to dispose of them. Additionally, certain investments may be subject to certain transfer restrictions that may also contribute to illiquidity. Further, Fund assets that are typically traded in a liquid market may become illiquid if the applicable trading market tightens. Therefore, no assurance can be given that the Fund can dispose of a particular investment at its prevailing fair value. A portion of the Fund’s investments may consist of securities that are subject to restrictions on resale by the Fund because they were acquired in a "private placement" or similar transaction or because the Fund is deemed to be an affiliate of the issuer of such securities. The Fund will be able to sell such securities only under applicable securities laws, which may permit only limited sales under specified conditions or subject the Fund to additional potential liability.
Medium and Small Capitalization Company Risk Some issuers of the Fund’s investments may be medium or small capitalization companies which may be newly formed or have limited product lines, distribution channels, and financial or managerial resources. The risks associated with these investments are generally greater than those associated with investments in the securities of larger, more-established companies. The Fund does not maintain a policy limiting its ability to invest in medium or small capitalization companies. This may cause the Fund’s NAV to be more volatile when compared to investment companies that focus only on large capitalization companies. Generally, securities of medium and small capitalization companies are more likely to experience sharper swings in market values, less liquid markets, in which it may be more difficult for the Sub ̶Adviser to sell at times and at prices that the Sub ̶Adviser believes appropriate, and generally are more volatile than those of larger companies. Compared to large companies, smaller companies are more likely to have (i) less information publicly available, (ii) more limited product lines or markets and less mature businesses, (iii) fewer capital resources, (iv) more limited management depth, and (v) shorter operating histories. Further, the equity securities of smaller companies are often traded over-the-counter and generally experience a lower trading volume than is typical for securities that are traded on a national securities exchange. Consequently, the Fund may be required to dispose of these securities over a longer period of time (and potentially at less favorable prices) than would be the case for securities of larger companies, offering greater potential for gains and losses and associated
tax consequences.
Mezzanine Securities Risk Most of the Fund’s mezzanine securities and other investments (if any) are expected to be unsecured and made in companies whose capital structures have significant indebtedness ranking ahead of the investments, all or a significant portion of which may be secured. While the securities and other investments may benefit from the same or similar financial and other covenants as those enjoyed by the indebtedness ranking ahead of the investments and may benefit from cross-default provisions and security over the portfolio company’s assets, some or all of such terms may not be part of particular investments. Mezzanine securities and other investments generally are subject to various risks including, without limitation: (i) a subsequent characterization of an investment as a “fraudulent conveyance”; (ii) the recovery as a “preference” of liens perfected or payments made on account of a debt in the 90 days before a bankruptcy filing; (iii) equitable subordination claims by other creditors; (iv) so-called “lender liability” claims by the issuer of the obligations; and (v) environmental liabilities that may arise with respect to collateral securing the obligations.
Non-Performing Loans Risk The Fund’s investments are expected to include investments in non-performing and sub-performing loans which often involve workout negotiations, restructuring and the possibility of foreclosure. These processes are often lengthy and expensive. In addition, the Fund’s investments may include securities and debt obligations of financially distressed issuers, including companies involved in bankruptcy or other reorganization and liquidation proceedings. As a result, the Fund’s investments may be subject to additional bankruptcy related risks, and returns on such investments may not be realized for a considerable period of time.
Pandemic Risk An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 was first detected in December 2019 and has now been detected globally. COVID-19 has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many countries or the entire global economy, individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak, or other infectious diseases, may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally. As such, issuers of debt securities with properties, operations, productions, offices, and/or personnel in (or other exposure to) areas affected by diseases outbreaks may experience significant disruptions to their business and/or holdings. The potential impact on the credit markets may include market illiquidity, defaults and bankruptcies, among other consequences, particularly on issuers in the airline, travel and leisure and retail sectors. The extent to which COVID-19 or other infectious diseases will affect the Fund, the Fund’s service providers and/or such issuer’s operations and results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain COVID-19. The duration of the COVID-19 outbreak cannot be determined with certainty.
Secured Debt Risk Secured debt holds the most senior position in the capital structure of a borrower. Secured debt in most circumstances is fully collateralized by assets of the borrower. Thus, it is generally repaid before unsecured bank loans, corporate bonds, subordinated debt, trade creditors, and preferred or common stockholders. Substantial increases in interest rates may cause an increase in loan defaults as borrowers may lack resources to meet higher debt service requirements. The value of the Fund’s assets may also be affected by other uncertainties such as economic developments affecting the market for senior secured term loans or affecting borrowers generally. Moreover, the security for the Fund’s investments in secured debt may not be recognized for a variety of reasons, including the failure to make required filings by lenders, trustees or other responsible parties and, as a result, the Fund may not have priority over other creditors as anticipated.
Secured debt usually includes restrictive covenants, which must be maintained by the borrower. The Fund may have an obligation with respect to certain senior secured term loan investments to make additional loans upon demand by the borrower. Such instruments, unlike certain bonds, usually do not have call protection. This means that such interests, while having a stated term, may be prepaid, often without penalty. The rate of such prepayments may be affected by, among other things, general business and economic conditions, as well as the financial status of the borrower. Prepayment would cause the actual duration of a senior loan to be shorter than its stated maturity.
Secured debt typically will be secured by pledges of collateral from the borrower in the form of tangible and intangible assets. In some instances, the Fund may invest in secured debt that is secured only by stock of the borrower or its subsidiaries or affiliates. The value of the collateral may decline below the principal amount of the senior secured term loans subsequent to an investment by the Fund.
Structured Products Risk The Fund may invest in Collateralized Debt Obligations (“CDOs”) and other structured products, consisting of Collateralized Bond Obligations, Collateralized Loan Obligations (“CLOs”) and credit-linked notes. Holders of structured products bear risks of the underlying investments, index or reference obligation and are subject to counterparty risk.
The Fund may have the right to receive payments only from the structured product, and generally does not have direct rights against the issuer or the entity that sold the assets to be securitized. While certain structured products enable the investor to acquire interests in a pool of securities without the brokerage and other expenses associated with directly holding the same securities, investors in structured products generally pay their share of the structured product’s administrative and other expenses. Although it is difficult to predict whether the prices of indices and securities underlying structured products will rise or fall, these prices (and, therefore, the prices of structured products) will be influenced by the same types of political and economic events that affect issuers of securities and capital markets generally. If the issuer of a structured product uses shorter term financing to purchase longer term securities, the issuer may be forced to sell its securities at below market prices if it experiences difficulty in obtaining short-term financing, which may adversely affect the value of the structured products owned by the Fund. Certain structured products may be thinly traded or have a limited trading market. CLOs and credit-linked notes are typically privately offered and sold.
Subordinated and Unsecured or Partially Secured Loans Risk The Fund may invest in unsecured loans and secured subordinated loans, including second and lower lien loans. Second lien loans are generally second in line in terms of repayment priority. A second lien loan may have a claim on the same collateral pool as the first lien or it may be secured by a separate set of assets. Second lien loans generally give investors priority over general unsecured creditors in the event of an asset sale. The priority of the collateral claims of third or lower lien loans ranks below holders of second lien loans and so on. Such junior loans are subject to the same general risks inherent to any loan investment, including credit risk, market and liquidity risk, and interest rate risk. Due to their lower place in the borrower’s capital structure and possible unsecured or partially secured status, such loans involve a higher degree of overall risk than senior loans of the same borrower.
Unitranche Debt Risk Unitranche debt will be structured as senior secured debt, including first priority liens on an issuer's assets. Unitranche debt typically provides for moderate loan amortization in the initial years of the facility, with the majority of the principal payment deferred until loan maturity. Since unitranche debt generally allows the borrower to make a large lump sum payment of principal at the end of the loan term, there is a risk of loss if the borrower is unable to pay the lump sum or refinance the amount owed at maturity. In some cases, the Fund will be the sole lender, or the Fund together with its affiliates will be the sole lender, of unitranche debt, which can provide the Fund with more influence interacting with a borrower in terms of monitoring and, if necessary, remediation in the event of underperformance.
Valuation of Private Investments Risk While the valuation of the Fund’s publicly-traded securities are more readily ascertainable, the Fund’s ownership interest in private investments (including Private Corporate Debt Investments) are not publicly traded. The fair value of loans, securities and other investments that are not publicly traded may not be readily determinable, and the Fund will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, including to reflect significant events affecting the value of the Fund’s investments. Many of the Fund’s investments, including certain Private Corporate Debt Investments, will be classified as Level 3 under Topic 820 of the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification, as amended, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). This means that the Fund’s portfolio valuations will be based on unobservable inputs and the Fund’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability in question. The Fund expects that inputs into the determination of fair value of the Fund’s portfolio investments will require significant management judgment or estimation. Even if observable market data are available, such information may be the result of consensus pricing information or broker quotes, which include a disclaimer that the broker would not be held to such a price in an actual transaction. The non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by disclaimers materially reduces the reliability of such information. In connection with fair value determinations, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, together with the Fair Value Pricing Committee, may provide the Board with valuations based upon certain inputs that take into account all reasonably available information that may be relevant to a particular security including, but not limited to: pricing history, current market level, supply and demand of the respective security; the enterprise value of the portfolio company; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, comparison to the values and current pricing of publicly traded securities that have comparable characteristics; comparison to publicly traded securities including factors such as yield, maturity, and credit quality; knowledge of historical market information with respect to the security; fundamental analytical data, such as periodic financial statements, and other factors or information relevant to the security, issuer, or market. The Fund has also retained the services of third-party valuation firms to review valuations of certain securities for which market or dealer quotations are unavailable or deemed unreliable and to assist in determining fair value where applicable, however, the ultimate determination of fair value will be made by the Board and not by such third-party valuation firm. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates, the Fund’s determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. The Fund’s net asset value could be adversely affected if the Board’s determinations regarding the fair value of the Fund’s investments were materially higher than the values that the Fund ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such securities.
