Yankel Stein is the chief investment officer of a large charitable foundation based in the United States. Although the foundation has significant exposure to alternative investments and hedge funds, Stein proposes to increase the foundation’s exposure to relative value hedge fund strategies. As part of Stein’s due diligence on a hedge fund engaging in convertible bond arbitrage, Stein asks his investment analyst to summarize different risks associated with the strategy.
Describe how Credit issues can create concerns for Stein’s proposed hedge fund strategy.

解释:
Credit issues may complicate valuation since bonds have exposure to credit risk. When credit spreads widen or narrow, there would be a mismatch in the values of the stock and convertible bond positions that the convertible manager may or may not have attempted to hedge away.
“同学你好,Credit issues,指的是convertible bond会面临信用风险,信用风险得大小会影响CB的price,我们这个策略成功的前提就是股债同涨同跌,但是当发生信用风险的时候,股票和债券之间价格的关系就会变化,那么策略就有可能不成功。”老师这是一个回答,我想问的是如果credit出现了问题,CB的price确实会变差,但是stock也肯定会下降啊,那不是还是同涨同跌吗?
