Applicable Margin Reset gains greater acceptance among investors. As reported by Andrew Park and Luke Millar from LCD, Neuberger Berman is the latest CLO manager to implement Applicable Margin Reset (AMR) in their newest deal. In addition, a Japanese investor has been brought on board with the feature, purchasing the class A-2 tranche.
Applicable Margin Reset (AMR) is advancing in its development -- gaining market acceptance along the way. Since 2016, over $2 billion of CLOs have been issued with the feature.
A recently published article in Opalesque featured Sancus Capital’s Olga Chernova: “The modified auction process is open to the broader market and can lead to better refinancing rates.”
James Vogl, KopenTech’s head of product development, explains how Applicable Margin Reset can help in an era of a dwindling CLO arbitrage. AMR is a streamlined method of CLO refinancing in the secondary market through the use of an auction process. It takes 1/3 the time of a traditional refinance and costs 75% less.
