Tupelo, Miss., July 18 – CLO primary action slowed over the week along with other markets as late summer doldrums set in, though the market is far from taking a lengthy vacation and issuance is expected to be busy through the end of the month, insiders report.

The near-term CLO deal pipeline dropped to $7.9 billion, according to a market source on Friday.

Prudential Investment Management, Inc. firmed details for a $666.5 million CLO transaction, upsized from an initial $615 million estimated offering, a market source said.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the placement agent.

Also coming up, Sound Point Capital Management LP is in the pipeline with its second CLO deal of the year, according to a market source.

The New York City-based asset management firm plans to offer $524.88 million of fixed- and floating-rate notes due Aug. 18, 2026 in the Sound Point CLO VI, Ltd./Sound Point CLO VI Inc. transaction.
