"This book is a treasure trove for both pension investors and trustees seeking to improve performance through credit.

By extending their research to ESG ratings, the authors also provide timely insights in the expanding field of sustainable finance."

"Over more than a decade, Lev Dynkin and his QPS team has provided me and APG with numerous innovative insights in credit markets. Their work gave us valuable quantitative substantiation of some of our investment beliefs. This book covers new and under-researched areas of our markets, like ESG and factor investing, next to the rigorous and practical work akin to the earlier work of the group. I'd say read this book—and learn from one of the best."
