Over the past year, more than 2,000 BWIC line items for rated EU CLO bonds have been observed. Among them, 261 line items across the AAA to single-B rating spectrum were called at par. Of these, 218 had a cover price at or above par, while 43 had a cover price below par.

The table below shows the average annualised prepayment rates for each seasoned manager in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth years of the post-reinvestment period (post-RP). The sample includes seasoned deals that had exited their reinvestment periods by 31 December 2024. Eight EU CLO managers have maintained single-digit annualised prepayment rates during either the first and second years or the second and third years of the post-RP period across their seasoned deals.

The technically strong loan market, with around half or more loans trading above par, has resulted in a relatively active month-to-date secondary market for EU CLO single-B tranches. A total of 27 single-B tranches have traded on BWIC with trading colour available (source: Structured Credit Investor). For deals with reinvestment periods ending between late 2028 and 2030, discount margins (DMs) based on cover prices span a wide range, from 830 bps to 1,340 bps. As shown in the table in this article, DMs can rise sharply once MVOC falls into the 102.0%–102.5% range, with levels approaching 1,000 bps. Beyond this point, DMs tend to widen disproportionately with each incremental decline in MVOC, highlighting the increasingly asymmetric risk profile of investing in single-B tranches...

When volatility spiked in February 2026, arbitrage improved to levels seen in early 2025, although it subsequently narrowed again, with the latest readings in the range of 150–160 bps.

A sample of 333 deals from the 1Q 2024 to 4Q 2024 vintages is used, excluding static deals and those with a collateral factor below 0.75. Each deal’s underlying collateral weighted average spread (WAS) is adjusted to reflect its weighted average price (WAP) as of June 5, 2026.
