Why Devlin Capital?​

Devlin Capital is a globally connected investment firm uniquely able to bring new financial technology and innovation to our clients. The five partners collectively have over a century of capital markets experience in Asia, Europe, the US and Canada.

The partners are recognized as industry leaders in macro-economics, structured finance, derivatives trading and risk management across diverse asset classes (currencies, interest rates, credit risk and options). We are distinctively capable of identifying opportunities in the global market and delivering these opportunities to institutional investors and high net worth individuals.

An independent investment firm with strategies designed to consistently deliver attractive absolute returns in a low interest rate environment. Client returns are the priority, not asset or revenue growth.

Our fundamental approach is to realize long-term value. Our strategies embrace innovation and change to unlock fundamental value.

Our global approach is nimble to avoid “diseconomies-of-scale” or “crowded trades.” We strive to deliver attractive global opportunities that have low correlations to investors’ existing portfolios.

We see value in the private markets where investors can be generously compensated for illiquidity and complexity. We plan to offer private opportunities to high-net-worth individuals and institutional investors.

Ed Devlin – Founder

 

 

Our team members have successfully navigated every major global financial crisis over the past three decades. All the partners have managed significant portfolios at premier global investment firms. Our history of taking a disciplined approach to planning for and managing “draw downs” during market corrections is unique. Our approach is to identify cheap risk premiums available in the market, and then structure portfolios to ensure relative stability during bear markets.

We are also targeting strategies that have low correlations to traditional stock and bond funds. Our ability to understand complex structured financings and derivative contracts allows us to safely access excess returns not fully understood by other market participants. Our clients can obtain favourable returns by locking up their money in private opportunities and investing in “non-consensus” sectors of the global marketplace.

Significant Opportunities For 2022

Trade Finance Investment Strategy

Devlin Capital believes that the Trade Receivables segment presents a unique opportunity in which the investors are well-compensated for liquidity risk and in which the added complexity, when carefully examined, enhances the overall security of the investment. Trade Receivable Asset Backed Securities are securitizations that collateralize businesses’ trade receivables.
