What we do
Special Situations (credit and equity): restructurings, recapitalizations, spin-offs, post-reorganization equity, capital-structure arbitrage.
Event-Driven Catalysts: tender offers, mergers, index changes, regulatory or legal milestones.
Volatility & Dislocations: tactical positioning during market stress (volatility spikes, liquidity breaks, forced selling) with predefined drawdown and exposure limits.
Relative-Value & Hedges: basis trades, options overlays, and portfolio hedges sized to risk—not headlines.
Liquidity Sleeve: short- to medium-duration opportunities that complement our less-liquid direct allocations.
Instruments & markets (explicit)
We can deploy capital - including available cash - into public and private securities across the capital structure, within defined risk limits and as permitted by the offering documents:
Equity: long and short single names, post-reorganization equity, exchange-traded funds, index derivatives.
Credit: bonds, loans, distressed paper, credit default swaps for hedging or expression of credit views.
Derivatives (primarily for hedging and efficient exposure): listed and over-the-counter options, futures, and swaps.
Cash management: Treasury bills, high-quality money-market instruments, and other short-dated sovereigns for liquidity and collateral.
How we manage risk
Position limits and concentration bands by issuer, sector, and catalyst.
Gross and net exposure corridors with real-time monitoring.
Volatility targeting and hard drawdown controls; automatic de-risking when thresholds are breached.
Counterparty oversight and collateral management.
Independent fund administrator and annual audits (see offering documents)
Human-in-the-loop analytics: our tools surface anomalies and pattern breaks; portfolio managers approve every action
Sourcing edge
Pre-market and off-market visibility from BlackStar’s direct deals and operating networks.
Cross-asset insight from real assets, private opportunities, and credit that informs public-market positioning.
Operator lens: cash first; structure and control over narrative
