Danielle Poli, Co-Portfolio Manager, Oaktree Diversified Income Fund, Brookfield Oaktree Wealth Solutions joined Keith Black, Managing Director, RIA Channel to discuss the state of the credit market and opportunities for investors in 2023.
The convergence of macroeconomic themes like inflation, monetary tightening and geopolitical risk has led to a lot of volatility in the credit markets. That volatility, coupled with yield potential, has created a lot of opportunity for investors, explains Poli. In today’s rapidly shifting market environment, Poli emphasizes the importance of diversification, risk control, and staying nimble with a multi-strategy credit approach.
