High Quality – BLIS’s investment portfolio has an average high-quality credit rating and does not invest in securities with a rating below A-. Maintaining exposure to highly-rated securities reduces the probability of capital impairment.
Floating-Rate – the portfolio is primarily invested in floating-rate instruments5, which may substantially mitigate mark-to-market fluctuations from an ever-changing bond curve.
Secured Instruments – BLIS primarily invests in securities which have an explicit pool of ring-fenced assets, providing the requisite cashflows and a substantial level of collateral.
