The firm began coverage of this corner of the ETF space on Monday. An ETF play Woodard's team began coverage of one CLO fund: the Janus Henderson AAA CLO ETF (JAAA) .

The Janus Henderson AAA CLO ETF (JAAA) , which buys highly rated collateralized loan obligations, has grown rapidly this year and outperformed many popular bond ETFs. The fund has a 30-day SEC yield of 6.66%, putting it above the yield of U.S. Treasuries. JAAA YTD mountain The JAAA ETF has held up this year despite rising interest rates. There are other CLO ETFs on the market, including the BlackRock AAA CLO ETF (CLOA) that launched earlier this year, but JAAA is the largest. Given the size and depth of the AAA CLO market, the fund should have no problems operating until it is about $20 billion in assets, at least, he estimated.

BlackRock launched the AAA CLO ETF (CLOA) less than a month ago, and the product already has about $30 million in assets under management. Panagram Structured Asset Management is exploring riskier versions in the same ETF sector, launching the BBB-B CLO ETF (CLOZ) and surpassing the $20 million mark in less than two weeks. Fixed income funds boom The growth of these funds comes after a boom in fixed income ETFs in 2022, as rising interest rates and high inflation sent investors hunting for ways to generate additional yield. Invesco and VanEck also launched CLO ETFs last year, presenting additional investment options. However, there are diversification benefits to having floating rate ETFs for investors, especially in the U.S. where most fixed income products have a fixed rather than a floating rate, Kerschner said.
Banks’ buyout-debt machine defies quick jumpstart

Asset managers like Blackstone (BX.N) or Axa (AXAF.PA) pick the underlying loans, while investment banks underwrite the CLO securities and place them with credit investors. Many of the bonds that come out the other side get an ultra-safe AAA credit rating. The combination of higher funding costs and slower private-equity dealmaking has pushed sales of European CLO securities down 67% year-on-year, according to JPMorgan analysts. So, for example, 70% of the whole portfolio would have to default, with the creditors recovering just half of their money, before AAA tranches see a loss. That means banks’ biggest CLO risk is an even sharper slowdown, not a blowup.
