Credit Crunch: Shorecliff’s Nachman on Market, Managing Growth

“We always want to be big enough in any given strategy that we’re relevant to the market, relevant to our counterparties,” says Grant Nachman, Shorecliff Asset Management’s CIO and CEO. “But we always want to try to be nimble enough that we don’t have to own everything.” Nachman joins Bloomberg Intelligence’s Noel Hebert on this episode of the Credit Crunch podcast to discuss Shorecliff’s “full-cycle credit” approach, new challenges in managing a firm as assets and headcount scale, and how to stay disciplined amid growth. They also explore the importance of relationships, relative value between broadly syndicated loans and high yield corporate bonds, and whether private credit’s consolidation phase will affect tradeable markets.
