The market for collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") has had a record year, with over $1 trillion in new issuances, refinancings and resets globally so far. Debt and equity investors are clamoring for more. What’s fueling the boom in securitizations and leveraged loans, and what’s on the horizon for 2022?
In this episode of Law, Policy & Markets: Milbank Conversations, host Allan Marks and alternative finance partner Sean M. Solis explore the market impacts of a yield-starved, “risk-on” investment climate, massive liquidity and low interest rates on CLOs and other structured products. They discuss how CLOs have evolved since the 2008 financial crisis, what is driving investment in these complex derivative instruments, and prospects for innovation in deal terms, financial regulation and structural protections.
