Nicolas Faller, co-CEO of asset management at UBP, said the current market regime "should put alternatives, and especially alternative credit strategies, back at the forefront of investors' asset allocations".

The fund, which is offered on UBP's alternative UCITS platform, will be supported by Brigade's team of 33 sector analysts and 12 structured credit specialists.

Don Morgan, founder and managing partner of Brigade said he was "pleased to be working with UBP to extend our alternative credit platform to the wider UCITS marketplace".
