CLO Research

The table below shows the 15 largest global CLO managers, ranked by their CLO assets under management (rather than liabilities), in USD billions as of 31 March 2025.

Table 1 below provides the full list of 70 EU CLO managers overseeing a total of €268 billion (US$316 billion) in CLO collateral assets under management (as opposed to CLO liabilities) as of 30 June 2025, along with AUM trends since 31 December 2017. Since 31 December 2020, CVC Credit Partners, Palmer Square Capital Management, and RRAM have seen the most significant increases in collateral AUM notional among EU CLO managers. Only Blackstone and Carlyle have remained in the top five since 2017; the others have dropped out of the top five managers by collateral AUM.

Some of the top-performing EU CLO managers include RRAM, Brigade Capital, Guggenheim Partners, Partners Group, and Bridgepoint Credit Management.

This week saw two majority equity blocks on BWIC: GNRT 2022-10A SUB with $31 million notional and ELM17 2022-4A SUB with $35 million notional.

EU CLO equity has outperformed US CLO equity, based on BWIC colour from a sample of approximately 446 equity tranches traded since July 2024 (source: SCI). This trend is also consistent with findings from 2.0 CLO deals that have been fully liquidated to date, according to CLO Research.
