LibreMax Capital’s main fund notched returns of roughly 6% through July this year, according to a person familiar with the matter, after betting on asset-backed securities and rotating out of commercial and residential mortgage debt and collateralized loan obligations.
The LibreMax Partners Fund, which totals about $1 billion, invests in structured products tied to both corporate and consumer debt. The fund gained about 4% in the first half of last year, as previously reported by Bloomberg. Separately, LibreMax has raised $1 billion across two other funds, namely the LibreMax Core Fund and LibreMax Dislocation Fund, added the person, who declined to be identified as the details are private.
