Credit & Insurance

At SIMM & Co., we specialize in insurance-linked securities (ILS), private credit, and structured financing solutions that provide investors with stable, uncorrelated, and high-yield investment opportunities. These alternative asset classes offer capital preservation, predictable cash flows, and enhanced risk-adjusted returns, making them a critical component of a diversified portfolio.

By leveraging our deep expertise in insurance markets, private lending, and structured credit, we help investors access low-volatility investment vehicles that generate consistent income while mitigating exposure to traditional market cycles.

We invest across the credit markets, managing leading strategies that target sectors with strong fundamentals.

Our platform has evolved alongside the credit markets. This longevity allows us to draw from a deep well of trusted relationships to originate opportunities on behalf of our clients.

Innovation

Our complete capital solutions span the liquidity and risk spectrum, and our close partnerships with borrowers allow us to pinpoint additional opportunities to create value.
