Coolabah Capital Investments

Coolabah Capital Investments (CCI) is a leading long-only and long-short active credit manager that is responsible for managing numerous institutional mandates, the Smarter Money Investments’ product suite, and the BetaShares Active Australian Hybrid ETF (ASX: HBRD). As at December 2020, CCI managed $5 billion in FUM with 25 execs, including 13 analysts, 5 portfolio managers and 4 PhDs. CCI’s edge is in alpha generation in liquid, high-grade credit in contrast to traditional fixed-income strategies that drive returns through adding more interest rate duration, credit default, and/or illiquidity risk (beta). This alpha is a function of the world-class analytical insights rendered by CCI’s human capital, which includes 24 executives with a long-term track-record of delivering prescient insights. In 2019, CCI’s portfolio managers were selected as one of FE fundinfo’s Top 11 “Alpha Managers” based on their risk-adjusted performance across all asset-classes.
