Chateau maintains an exclusive partnership with Covenant, leveraging their experience across multiple asset classes to power our DeFi products. In particular, Covenant VC Credit Income Opportunities Fund has consistently delivered 2+ Sharpe returns that beat the market.

The Sharpe ratio is a metric used to assess how well an investment's returns compensate for the risk taken. It's calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate of return from the investment's return and dividing the result by the investment's standard deviation, which measures volatility. A higher Sharpe ratio generally indicates a better risk-adjusted return. Learn more about the Sharpe Ratio here.
