CPG Lending has two primary functions including Portfolio Management & Research (PM&R) which is aligned by industry and geography, and Trading & Distribution (T&D) which uses both liquid and illiquid channels to facilitate transactions. The priority of the group is to manage the retained credit portfolio focusing on concentrated exposures (company specific, industry or geographical concentrations) while balancing the competing issues of minimizing cost, P&L volatility, and capital usage. Portfolio managers and researchers work with traders to determine appropriate strategies to manage the portfolio which are achieved primarily via the secondary loan market, the CDS market, and through structured solutions.
