Taking advantage of the broad spectrum of private credit

Many private credit registered funds have a narrow focus on US direct lending, whereas CAPIX sources investment opportunities across the global credit asset class.

Aksia’s sourcing coverage extends across the global private credit universe

Overview

The Calamos Aksia Alternative Credit and Income Fund (CAPIX) invests across the full spectrum of private credit, providing access to a wide range of credit investments. Additionally, a portion of assets are allocated to liquid alternatives designed to provide liquidity for repurchases, outperform cash yields and enhance overall diversification.

Robust Liquidity Capabilities

5%
minimum liquidity

We will actively manage the liquidity allocation with the goal of generating yield while prepositioning to 5% quarterly repurchase needs.

Liquid credit strategy also provides cash management efficiencies.

There is no guarantee the Fund will achieve this allocation, or that there will be attractive investment opportunities available that would allow it to meet its investment objective. Asset allocation totals may not equal 100% because of rounding. Shares purchased at NAV may incur CDSC of 1.00% if sold within 18 months after purchase.
*Must constitute 5%–25% of outstanding shares.

Opportunity of Interval funds

Interval funds are investment vehicles structured to provide access to a broader set of investment opportunities than a mutual fund, while still operating under the same regulations and tax treatments of open-end and closed-end mutual funds.

Interval Fund Potential Benefits

Access to illiquid assets

Private less-liquid investment opportunities

No accreditation

Broad investor eligibility with no accreditation requirement

Liquidity flexibility

Maintain a fully invested asset base, without the need to manage daily redemptions

Lower investment minimums

Compared to private funds

Enhanced yield potential

Supported by illiquidity premiums

Offering

Simplicity of point-and-click daily subscriptions

Pricing

Shares sold and repurchased at NAV

Simple tax treatment

Mutual fund tax treatment via a 1099-DIV
