About Jared Muroff
A Chartered Financial Analyst, I lead the Octus team of financial analysts and journalists covering distressed and troubled U.S. companies across various industries, with a particular focus on liability management exercises. I have helped hundreds of clients understand these transactions so they can make the right investment decision.
I have a broad range of skills in analyzing and investing in distressed situations, including extending credit to bankrupt companies (both debtor-in-possession and exit financing), purchasing unsecured debt securities of bankrupt companies (“trade receivables”), as well as managing loan and trade receivables portfolios; track investments from purchase to completion through the court-approved bankruptcy process. Analyzing distressed investments gave me the opportunity to research all kinds of industries, including failed Ponzi schemes.
