Twelve Securis launches new RT1-focused insurance-linked investment fund strategy

Specialist insurance-linked securities manager Twelve Securis has launched a new insurance-linked investment fund strategy that will primarily focus on Restricted Tier 1 (RT1) insurance debt instruments.

According to the firm, the new strategy, which is called The Twelve Securis Credit Fund, aims to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns by investing primarily in RT1 debt issued by insurance companies.

Moreover, Restricted Tier 1 (RT1) signifies an expanding and attractive portion of the insurance credit market, providing an average of roughly 150 basis points of additional spread in comparison to insurance Tier 2 debt and about 200 basis points relative to corporate debt with similar ratings.
