Metrics Credit Partners (“Metrics”) is not aware of any ASIC investigation related to specific practices or transactions in our business.

In line with our peers and industry bodies, Metrics has actively participated in industry responses related to ASIC’s review of private and public markets, and like our peers has responded to requests from ASIC for information to assist its review of private and public markets. We are fully supportive of the role of regulators in ensuring the integrity and proper functioning of Australian financial markets and welcome strong, fit-for-purpose reforms.

Importantly, as a leading alternative asset management firm with ASX listed funds, we operate with robust governance standards – this includes disclosing industry exposures, and detailed performance and portfolio risk settings provided regularly to the ASX. In relation to loan valuations, we use independent and highly experienced professionals to verify the market value and any potential
impairment across our portfolio.

We will continue to engage with the Regulator as it seeks to better understand the workings of private credit markets.
