Metrics Income Opportunities Trust (ASX: MOT) | Investor Information

Metrics Credit Partners CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart recently spoke with Sharecafe about the Metrics Income Opportunities Trust (ASX: MOT), explaining how the fund was designed to blend diversified private credit with selective equity exposure with the goal to deliver regular income and enhanced total return. Designed as a hybrid strategy, MOT invests primarily in private debt across the capital structure, while allocating to equity and equity linked opportunities where Metrics identifies compelling upside. The portfolio remains predominantly debt focused, supported by a diversified mix of property related and corporate equity positions. “MOT is designed to deliver a very attractive income*, but with a lower risk profile than holding a portfolio of equities, while still giving investors some exposure to potential upside.” —Andrew Lockhart, CEO and Managing Partner, Metrics Credit Partners MOT targets a cash distribution of around 7% per annum and a total return of 8–10% per annum net of fees through the cycle. Lockhart also emphasises Metrics’ disciplined underwriting, diversification and active risk management, positioning MOT as a complementary option for investors seeking income* with additional return potential alongside more defensive strategies such as MXT. *The payment of monthly cash income is a goal of the Trust only and neither the Manager or the Responsible Entity provide any representation or warranty (whether express or implied) in relation to the payment of any monthly cash income.
