CLO Market Insights April 2025

Our non-investment grade fixed income strategies are offered by Crescent Capital Group, a leading specialist focused exclusively on corporate credit. Crescent offers clients access to a wide variety of alternative fixed income investments across the credit spectrum.

CLOs: POSITIONED WELL FOR THE REST OF 2025

The CLO market continues to perform as expected – offering notably low defaults, stable ratings, best in class yields and returns, and consistently strong relative value. Backed by a deep and growing global investor base – the CLO market has something for a wide range of investors; offering opportunities across a variety of risk, return and ratings profiles that are easy to access and transact in.

Investors looking to tactically express a view on markets, diversify away from single-name credit risk, or complement traditional fixed income products should consider the highly customizable CLO opportunity set to solve for their specific investment needs. We believe CLOs are a proven, cycle-tested asset class with a compelling track record and should not be shied away from due to misconceived complexities.
