Merger arbitrage is a highly specialized investment approach designed to profit from the successful completion of corporate reorganizations. Water Island Capital\u2019s approach focuses on the equity securities of publicly announced transactions, and utilizes hedging strategies that are designed to minimize market exposure and volatility. Our goal is to provide investors with consistent, positive returns that are not necessarily correlated to the general equity markets. Merger arbitrage, as an investment discipline, can play an important role in portfolio diversification. For years, large institutional investors and wealthy individuals have had access to merger arbitrage investing through private hedge funds. The Arbitrage Fund brings similar opportunities to individual investors.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"line-height: 1.714285714; font-size: 1rem;\">The Arbitrage Credit Opportunities Fund<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Arbitrage Credit Opportunities Fund, launched October 1, 2012, pursues an alternative credit-based strategy that seeks to generate returns from specific catalysts or company-specific events that are not correlated to overall market direction or interest rates. This non-traditional bond fund\u2019s goal is to provide current income and capital growth by holding both outright long and short positions and by utilizing capital structure arbitrage, merger arbitrage, and convertible arbitrage techniques to exploit security mispricings or inefficiencies. Water Island Capital maintains a flexible approach toward credit quality, duration, and instrument type within this portfolio. The types of special situations, catalysts, and events we follow include: mergers and acquisitions, refinancings, debt maturities, regulatory changes, reorganizations, and restructurings. The investment team utilizes rigorous, bottom-up fundamental research and implements active hedging methodologies and risk controls, with a keen focus on downside risk. Our goal is to provide current income and capital growth with low volatility and low correlation. This portfolio offers a pure-play credit implementation of Water Island Capital\u2019s broader event-driven style.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Arbitrage Event-Driven Fund<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Arbitrage Event-Driven Fund, launched October 1, 2010, seeks to achieve capital growth through event-driven investing. Event-Driven investing is a highly specialized strategy designed to profit from the behavior of both equity and fixed-income securities trading within the timelines of specific corporate events, such as mergers, acquisitions, recapitalizations, restructuring, refinancing, corporate distress, and bankruptcy. The Arbitrage Event-Driven Fund takes an opportunistic and flexible multi-strategy approach to event-driven opportunities through the use of various investment strategies including, but not limited to, merger arbitrage, convertible arbitrage, and capital structure arbitrage. Water Island Capital utilizes active hedging methodologies and fundamental research in an attempt to provide low volatility, low correlation, capital growth, and absolute returns. Institutional investors have relied on event-driven investing for decades. Most often, the strategy is pursued in private accounts or hedge fund vehicles; however, the strategy is readily deployed in a mutual fund format.<\/p>\n<div class=\"apply\">\n<h3>Apply for Hedge Fund Certification Now!!<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Hedge-Fund-Manager\">http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/Certified-Hedge-Fund-Manager<\/a><\/p>\n<h5>Go To- <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/certified-hedge-fund-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Certified Hedge Fund Manager Tutorial&nbsp;<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Certify and Increase Opportunity.
