Petiole USA, established in 2010, provides non-discretionary investment supervisory services to its Swiss affiliate, Petiole Asset Management AG (“PAM”), in its capacity as sub-advisor. Petiole USA offers advisory services in four disciplines/strategies: private real estate, private equity investments, yielding and distressed financial institutions.
• Real Assets – The principal investment objective is to deliver attractive risk adjusted returns to investors through investments in real assets. The strategy is focused on assets with stable cash flow profiles and generally seeks to provide distributions. The program is opportunistic and seeks to be nimble based on changing market dynamics. Such opportunities will primarily be sourced through the Investment Team’s global network of relationships. This network includes alternative real estate investment managers, infrastructure funds, fund-of-funds, global investment banks, brokers, operating partners and entrepreneurs. The opportunity set is diverse and can include, but is not limited to, ports, toll roads, stadiums, parking lots, airports, pipelines, office properties, single and multi-family properties, industrial parks, and portfolios of the aforementioned categories.
• Private Equity - The investment objective of the Private Equity program is to identify and invest in attractive risk adjusted private equity investment opportunities. Such opportunities will primarily be sourced through the Investment Team’s global network of relationships. This network includes private equity managers, fund-of-funds, global investment banks, regional brokers, and entrepreneurs. The opportunity set is diverse and can include, but is not limited to, leveraged buyout transactions, management buyout transactions, infrastructure investments, brown field expansions, and merger financings.
• Yielding Strategy - The investment objective of the Yielding investment programs is to identify and invest in attractive risk adjusted opportunities that offer current cash yield. Such opportunities will primarily be sourced through the Investment Team’s global network of relationships. This network includes private equity managers, private debt managers, fund-of-funds, global

investment banks, regional brokers, and entrepreneurs.
• Distressed Financial Institutions - Petiole USA searches for investments that can be bought at a price that reflects a significant discount to such investments’ fair value. Petiole USA will seek to achieve its objective by investing primarily in the common equity (both public and non-public) of U.S. and non- U.S. banks, thrifts, depository institutions, and non-bank financial services companies in bankruptcy or FDIC receivership.
