Chenavari Investment Managers

Chenavari Investment Managers operates as an alternative fixed income specialist, managing diverse investment strategies across the European credit markets. The firm’s capabilities extend from liquid credit instruments, including asset-backed securities and high-yield bonds, to private credit solutions such as portfolio acquisitions and specialized credit origination. Their approach is underpinned by proprietary risk management technology, which facilitates real-time portfolio assessment and robust hedging strategies.

Loïc Fery founded the firm in 2007, with Frédéric Couderc also holding a foundational role as Chief Investment Officer. Fery, leveraging his prior experience as Global Head of Credit Markets at Credit Agricole CIB, established Chenavari to capitalize on opportunities within European credit markets by offering an independent and specialized alternative investment management platform. This insight led to the creation of a firm focused on navigating complex credit structures.

Chenavari serves institutional investors seeking exposure to European credit, providing structured investment solutions across various asset classes. The company's vision centers on meeting the funding requirements of borrowers while rigorously safeguarding investor capital through meticulous structuring and active risk oversight. It also emphasizes the integration of responsible investment practices and environmental, social, and governance considerations into its core strategies.
