This fund manages a portfolio of $2.7 billion. Launched in May with a value of $544 million, the Arini Structured Credit Equity fund also posted an impressive performance of 26.7% in just a few months. Thus, Arini’s total assets reach a substantial amount of $3.7 billion since its launch in 2022.

"Arini’s gains have been largely driven by the bet that borrowers who raised funds during the easy money era would struggle to refinance their debts on time after central banks around the world raised interest rates over the past year to control inflation," explains the US financial information agency.
