CHICAGO--()--On November 12th, PPM America, Inc. (PPM) announced the closing and liquidation of its remaining two mutual funds, the PPM Core Plus Fixed Income Fund (PKPIX) and the PPM High Yield Core Fund (PKHIX) which consisted solely of internal and seed capital investors. This action will complete the firm’s liquidation of the PPM Funds platform, as the firm focuses on delivery of its investment strategies through other commingled products.

“We continuously evaluate solutions with the goal to provide best-in-class performance and service to our clients,” said Jeff Seaver, Senior Managing Director, Head of Global Distribution. “Our recent distribution efforts with institutional investors have demonstrated that clients often desire greater efficiency and flexibility in a commingled vehicle than we can attain through a mutual fund.”

There can be no guarantee that any strategy will be successful. All investing involves risk, including potential loss of principal. The determination of “best-in-class” is solely the opinion of the Fund’s Adviser, and such opinion is subject to change. Those companies that hold leading market share positions, strong growth potential, historically good profitability, and management teams known for integrity and good corporate governance are generally considered to be “best-in-class.”
