About ABLHX

John Hancock Asset-Based Lending Fund S is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that focuses on asset-based lending strategies. Its primary objective is to provide high current income, with an additional goal of capital appreciation. The fund achieves this by investing at least 80% of its net assets in asset-based lending investments, including private and distressed loans, which are often sourced through proprietary channels rather than traditional public markets. This approach seeks to capture premiums associated with unique, customized financing opportunities. The portfolio spans a wide array of sectors and asset types, emphasizing diversification and access to private credit markets. Notable features include a strong focus on downside risk management through protective loan covenants, conservative collateral valuation, and active oversight. The fund also incorporates liquid securitized credit instruments to enhance portfolio liquidity. Managed by John Hancock Investment Management with Marathon Asset Management serving as subadvisor, the fund leverages specialist expertise to identify mispriced assets and fill market gaps where traditional lenders are less active, providing an all-weather strategy designed to perform across credit cycles.
