Arini profile:

Arini is a European Credit focused alternative investment manager founded in 2021 with our first Long/Short Strategy launched in January 2022. We are a 160+ person team with offices in London, NYC, Abu Dhabi, Warsaw and Jersey, with ~$22bn1 under management across Public and Private Credit Strategies. Our expertise is rooted in deep, fundamental credit research developed by our seasoned sector-based credit research team, which translates into a continuity of coverage in the corporate High Yield space in Europe, and increasingly a differentiated perspective on global companies as a point of comparison. This process has created a proprietary library of IP which continues to evolve, and which we are able to deploy in Performing, Stressed, Structured Credit, Capital Solutions and Private Credit opportunities. We aim to act with high conviction and agility in environments others view as complex or challenging, with the goal of delivering meaningful alpha across market cycles.
