New Residential Investment Corp. (NYSE: NRZ) is a real estate investment trust that focuses on opportunistically investing in, and actively managing, investments primarily related to residential real estate. We target investments in: (1) excess mortgage servicing rights (“Excess MSRs”), (2) residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”), (3) residential mortgage loans and (4) other opportunistic investments.
We believe that unfolding developments in the approximately $19 trillion U.S. residential housing market are generating significant investment opportunities. For example, in the aftermath of the U.S. financial crisis, the residential mortgage industry is undergoing major structural changes that are transforming the way mortgages are originated, owned and serviced. These changes are creating a compelling set of investment opportunities. We believe that New Residential is one of only a select number of market participants that have the combination of capital, industry experience and key business relationships we think are necessary to take advantage of this opportunity.
Our objective is to leverage our proven investment expertise to drive attractive risk adjusted returns that will help deliver strong and growing dividends to our shareholders. We target stable long term cash flows and employ conservative capital structures to generate returns throughout different interest rate environments. We take an active approach centered around identifying and executing on opportunities, responding to the changing market environment and dynamically managing our investment portfolio to enhance returns.
We are externally managed and advised by an affiliate of Fortress Investment Group LLC and benefit from the resources of a highly diversified global alternative investment manager with $58.0 billion of assets under management as of September 30, 2013.
