The Credit Opportunities Strategy (“COPS”) has maintained the confidence of its investors, with overwhelming support carried forward into successive vintages \u2013 this continuity highlights the durability of the strategy across market cycles.\u00a0 \u00a0Brookfield committed an additional \u20ac600 million to the COPS strategy, bringing Brookfield’s total commitment to COPS to \u20ac1.2 billion.<\/p>\n

LCM continues to enjoy the backing of many of the world’s leading institutional investors, including\u00a0public and private pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds and endowments<\/b>\u00a0across Europe<\/span>, North America<\/span> and Asia<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Paul Burdell<\/span>, CEO of LCM Partners, commented:
“We are proud to have reached this important milestone for COPS 5 with the continued support of existing and new investors to form our world-class investor base. The trust and loyalty of our clients, together with an increased commitment from Brookfield, is a testament to the resilience and success of our strategy. As banks continue to retrench and regulation drives further loan sales, we believe the opportunity set for granular consumer and SME credit across Europe<\/span> remains as compelling as ever.”<\/i><\/p>\n
