Manager CommentsLaminar Credit Opportunities Fund returned 0.62% during May and a sound 11.78% for the prior twelve months.

Month-end exposures were RMBS 64%, Listed Securities 4%, Corporate 16% and Short Dated Loans 13%. Cash holdings 3% were of NAV.

While risk assets have experienced a steady grind higher this year, the interest rates market has shifted around. Yields on US 10yr treasuries hit a recent high of 3% in January. They since rallied to 2.44% and recently sold off to 2.6%. While this market has not been overly volatile, it has caused some anxiety with fixed income fund managers with an interest rate exposure.
