By Nicole Downer

Lessons learnt in a crisis

Nicole Downer, Managing Partner at MV Credit, discusses the importance of market experience when navigating credit cycles.



  • Collective experience is an important resource when it comes to investing in times of crises.
  • While each crises is different, the effect on portfolio companies is often similar.
  • Credit managers can only weather market storms by building strong, defensive portfolios regardless of the cycle.
  • A disciplined, systematic monitoring framework is key to spotting early warning signals.
  • And, finding socially responsible solutions to the immediate issues faced by portfolio companies is crucial for long term success.
