Credit Funds

Definition

Credit funds are investment vehicles that pool capital from multiple investors to deploy into various forms of debt instruments. These instruments can span traditional fixed-income securities, corporate loans, or, in the context of digital assets, decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocols. The primary objective is to generate income through interest payments and capital appreciation derived from the underlying credit assets. They are managed by professional fund managers who assess credit risk and structure investment portfolios accordingly.
