Callodine Group unveils CALIX, a novel unlisted interval fund offering retail investors exposure to multi-strategy private credit, aiming for an 8% annual yield amid strategic acquisitions and sector expansion.
Callodine Group has launched the Callodine Specialty Income Fund (CALIX), an unlisted closed‑end interval fund that aims to deliver high current income through exposure to multi‑strategy private credit and other yield‑oriented investments. According to the original report, the fund offers retail investors broader access to private credit strategies that have traditionally been available only to institutional clients.
The fund, managed by Callodine Capital Management, LP and overseen by senior Callodine investment professionals, brings together expertise in asset‑based lending, life sciences finance, direct and real estate lending, high‑yield debt and income‑generating equity securities. The fund’s inception date was 15 August 2025; at launch it reported total net assets of $54.4 million and a net asset value of $10.14 per share, and trades under the ticker CALIX. The vehicle is structured as an interval fund with daily subscriptions, quarterly liquidity windows and a stated target distribution rate of 8% per annum of net asset value, with distributions paid quarterly. A registration statement relating to CALIX has been filed with, and declared effective by, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the company said in a statement.
“Investors are able to access Callodine’s specialised investment capabilities across private credit and alternative income strategies in a registered fund format,” James Morrow, founder and chief executive officer of Callodine and co‑portfolio manager of the fund, said. “We believe CALIX offers a differentiated exposure within the evolving interval fund landscape, and a compelling risk‑return profile.”
The launch follows Callodine’s strategic acquisition of a majority stake in Corrum Capital Management LLC, a private credit specialist with approximately $1.4 billion in assets under management. Corrum, founded in 2013 and operating teams in Charlotte and London, focuses on asset‑backed and cashflow‑oriented investments across the sports, music and entertainment industries, as well as aviation finance. According to the announcement, Corrum’s management team, investment committee and investment process will remain intact following the transaction, with Callodine supplying strategic guidance, operational support and capital resources.
“Our goal was to partner with an organization to ensure we have the appropriate resources in place to execute on our strong investment pipeline and strategy in our target sectors and that we can attract, retain and reward top talent across the organization,” Jason Cipriani, founder and CEO of Corrum Capital, said.
Callodine said the tie‑up is intended to broaden the range of collateral types and sector exposures available to its platform , citing Corrum’s sports, music, entertainment and aviation finance capabilities as complementary to Callodine’s asset‑based credit platform and its strategic capital partner, East Asset Management.
Industry data and the firm’s public materials indicate CALIX’s strategic asset mix is designed to generate yield while managing liquidity and volatility through diversified private credit and alternative income strategies. Gene Martin, President & CEO of Callodine Credit Management, added that the fund will leverage Callodine’s diversified platform and sector expertise to pursue an attractive yield profile within a disciplined portfolio construction and duration framework.
Legal and advisory teams involved in the Corrum transaction were disclosed in filings and press releases: Paul, Weiss acted as legal counsel to Callodine; Berkshire Global Advisors served as exclusive financial adviser, with Gibson Dunn & Crutcher and Winston & Strawn providing legal counsel to Corrum, the announcement stated.
Callodine Group, headquartered in Boston, manages a platform of affiliated advisers that the firm says oversee roughly $20 billion in assets and pursue predominantly income‑oriented strategies that target high cash yields with potential for equity‑like returns. According to the fund documentation, Callodine Specialty Income Fund seeks to marshal those capabilities into a registered interval fund format to widen investor access to private credit and other yield‑generating opportunities.
