Investment thesis
Cross Ocean Partners follows a value-investing approach, aiming to acquire assets below their intrinsic value based on fundamental, bottom-up research. The firm emphasizes downside protection by focusing on the top of the capital structure, including senior secured loans and other assets believed to have risk-limiting characteristics. It leverages dedicated sourcing to find less broadly syndicated, illiquid opportunities, targeting motivated, non-economic sellers and taking a partnership approach that aligns the interests of stakeholders while maintaining strong relationships across the market.
