Tisne is chairman of the Chilean association of investment funds managers, which is pressuring Congress to approve a bill that would allow foreign investors to invest in Chile-based funds without paying double taxation. The bill, first sent to Congress in 2011, was approved by the finance committee of the lower house earlier this month.
Javier Montero, who joined in 2009, is a co-portfolio manager with Tisne, and Christopher Park, who also joined in 2009, heads structured investments. Former Chilean central bank economist Esteban Jadresic is Moneda’s global investment strategist and chief economist.
“‘We found a niche that wasn’t much covered, which was high-yield credit in Latin America,” Tisne said. “We have been doing it for 10 years, which has allowed us to have the returns and growth we have had.”
