ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (“Angel Oak Capital”), a U.S.-based investment management firm, is pleased to announce that its MontLake Angel Oak Multi-Strategy Income UCITS Fund (the “Fund”) celebrated its two-year anniversary on December 4, 2017. Since inception, the fund has grown to over $650 million USD in AUM while returning an impressive annualized return of 8.17 percent.
Following on the strong demand for its U.S.-based investment offerings, Angel Oak Capital, which manages $7.9 billion USD in AUM as of Nov. 30, 2017, recognized the opportunity to bring the same value to the European UCITS marketplace. In December 2015, the firm launched its UCITS strategy to mirror its U.S.-based flagship mutual fund, thus giving European investors access to the U.S. structured credit market with a current focus on non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS).
“Our track record and reputation as leaders in the U.S. mortgage credit market have translated well with European investors. Crossing $650 million in AUM in just two years highlights our capabilities in the non-agency RMBS investment space,” stated Sreeni Prabhu, the firm’s Co-CEO and Chief Investment Officer. “With interest rates and yields relatively low in Europe, our unique investment solutions appeal to many European institutional investors, wealth managers and family offices looking for diversification from traditional fixed-income investments. We are pleased with the Fund’s performance since inception and expect to see continued growth.”
The Angel Oak portfolio management team has the flexibility to invest across most fixed income sectors without constraints, based on their assessment of the best relative value opportunities in the fixed income marketplace. Currently, the Fund’s portfolio allocation includes non-agency RMBS, commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations and other asset-backed securities. The Fund also has approximately 85 percent floating rate exposure, so it is positioned to do well relative to other strategies with duration exposure in a rising rate environment.
The Fund is available in several currencies providing a wide base of access for investors interested in the product. For more information on the Fund, please contact investor relations at 888-685-2915 or visit www.angeloakcapital.com.
