Investment Strategy
Whitebox employs a range of investment strategies that are subject to change without notice. These strategies may differ materially from those described, and the advisor is continually developing them. There is generally no limitation on the positions, instruments, markets, or strategies that the advisor may employ, except as determined by the advisor or set forth in client documentation. Changes in investment strategies may increase the risk profile of the private funds.
Whitebox's approach combines bottom-up trade identification with a top-down view on markets. The principal investment strategies are designed to capture alpha from systematic inefficiencies and idiosyncratic opportunities across asset classes and market cycles. These strategies include convertible arbitrage, focusing on opportunistic convertible investing, credit strategies focused on distressed, restructuring, and event-driven credit trades, and credit arbitrage, involving capital structure arbitrage with a credit focus.
