Seix Investment Advisors has launched a new product, the Energy Opportunities Strategy (EOS), the latest offering in a range of investment solutions for institutions and other sophisticated investors.

The Energy Opportunities Strategy draws on Seix's experience in managing both traditional and opportunistic credit portfolios. The firm’s in-depth, fundamental research capability enables Seix to identify opportunities in the various sub-sectors within the energy industry. Its Leveraged Finance research team is composed of industry specialists with an average of 17 years of work experience.

"Energy-related high yield spreads are their widest since the previous peak in 2008. This signals a potential opportunity to capitalise on this investment opportunity," says George Goudelias, Managing Director and Head of Leveraged Finance. He continues, "Our analyst-driven process lends itself to streamlined decision making and timely identification of fundamental changes and market opportunities."

"The global oil price decline has produced unprecedented opportunities in energy-related credit," adds Mike Kirkpatrick, Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager. "We believe the technicals of the market, coupled with Seix's long track record and experienced team may enable investors to capitalise on these unique market conditions."
