Amid surging demand for niche, cash-flowing credit strategies, Balbec Capital LP is digging deep into operationally intensive, often-overlooked corners of the global loan market — and scaling fast. The asset-based credit specialist has deployed over 60% of its sixth flagship fund, and is ramping up across CRE loans, consumer NPLs, secondary portfolios and European RPL securitisations — with another Spanish deal expected in Q4. SCI’s Marta Canini speaks with Balbec ceo Peter Troisi about why the firm prefers surgical deployment across thousands of smaller, operationally complex trades – and how it’s using tech and tight underwriting to stand out in an increasingly crowded market.

Technical factors are also at work: Global bond investors tend to actively seek out attractive term premiums they can hedge back to their base currency. This dynamic reinforces cross-market linkages and will likely persist as yield curve shapes evolve. #ChartingPerspectives
