Glendon Capital Management LP

GCM focuses primarily on investing in distressed situations.

This strategy is designed to exploit the cyclicality of credit markets and the assets financed by traditional credit investors. The firm seeks to generate substantial appreciation in their investments as market stresses subside, often as a result of restructuring, reorganization or the return of normal markets and liquidity conditions. Preservation of capital is a primary goal and GCM focuses on conservative underwriting of the investment opportunities they pursue and seeks appropriate downside protections with respect to their investments. The firm invests across regions, industries, asset classes and types of instruments as dislocations are inherently episodic in nature.

The Mosaic Company

Our products give farmers a fighting chance to meet the global demand for food. Without the crop yield improvements provided by potash and phosphate, the billions of mouths clamoring for more food would go unfed. That means that over the long term, demand for our fertilizers must increase. We have the assets to meet the demand. We mine phosphate rock from nearly 200,000 acres of Mosaic-owned land in Central Florida, and we mine potash from five mines in North America, primarily in Saskatchewan. Our products are processed into crop nutrients, and then shipped via rail, barge and ocean-going vessel to our customers in the major agricultural centers of the world
