A potential shift in US monetary policy toward fiscal dominance — where government financing influences rates more than inflation control — could change the risk-return trade-off for CLO investors. In this episode of Inside Active, host David Cohne, mutual fund and active management analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence, along with co-host Reto Bachmann, BI’s chief structured finance strategist, spoke with Bill Sokol, director of product management at VanEck and Fran Rodilosso, head of fixed income ETF portfolio management and a portfolio manager on the VanEck CLO ETF (CLOI) and VanEck CLO AA-BB CLO ETF (CLOB), about why active management is essential when it comes to manager selection and loan-level analysis and how effective ETF management mitigates liquidity risk through diversified exposure across tranches. They also discussed why relative value remains attractive as CLO tranches yield more than corporates and other asset-backed securities.
