Hedge Funds Are Diving Into CLOs; AT1s Revitalize

In this episode of the Credit Edge Podcast, Bloomberg News senior editor James Crombie also asks Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Jeroen Julius about the outlook for the AT1 market after the collapse of Credit Suisse. Prices have recovered but for some investors, the market’s just too choppy, Julius says. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
