We discuss the hottest topics in securitisation today...

In this episode of the SCI In Conversation podcast, SCI head of content Kenny Wastell speaks to Volker Gulde, senior vice president at Moody’s Ratings, about the European market for private credit CLOs. Gulde discusses why the asset class is yet to take off in the continent, when we might expect that situation to change, and more.

Gulde says that, while there has been no public issuance of private credit CLOs in Europe to date, there are many efforts and discussions about deals. He also discusses the similarities and differences between the landscapes in the US and Europe; what rating methodologies Moody’s would use for any eventual transactions; and the challenges of growing the asset class in a market that spans multiple jurisdictions and currencies.
