"a diversified portfolio of credit secondaries investments, with flexibility to participate"

Credit secondaries are the buying and selling of existing debt holdings — such as loans, bonds or slices of loan pools — between investors after those instruments have already been issued. They matter because they let investors change their exposure to credit risk or raise cash without waiting for maturity, and they create real-time market prices for those loans much like a used-car market shows what buyers will pay for a vehicle in its current condition.
