Services
Mr. Lasry co-founded Avenue Capital Group in 1995, and distressed investing has been the focus of his professional career for over 37 years. Prior to forming Amroc Investments, LLC ("Amroc") as an independent entity, Mr. Lasry managed capital for Amroc Investments, L.P., an investment fund affiliated with the Robert M. Bass Group.
The Avenue U.S. Strategy seeks to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns primarily by focusing on the distressed debt and undervalued securities of U.S. companies. In addition, the Avenue U.S. Strategy may invest in real estate debt or equity. Avenue's experienced investment professionals seek "good companies with bad balance sheets"- firms with sustainable businesses and positive cash flow but whose financial situation is distressed.
