Calamos Investments and Aksia joined forces this year to launch the Calamos Aksia Alternative Credit and Income Fund (CAPIX), an interval fund designed to provide advisors and their clients access to private debt investments – most of them historically only accessible to institutions – with the liquidity investors demand. The accessibility concept was nothing new for Calamos – it created one of the first retail liquid alternatives funds three decades ago – and for private credit, it engaged a partner, Aksia, that has been managing private credit for institutions almost as long. (For its part, this is Aksia’s first foray into advisors and retail clients.). Calamos’s Bob Behan is here to talk about the partnership and the current opportunity set in private credit.
