March volume improves; 3i prices €413 million CLO; Invesco brings $406.25 million deal

By Cristal Cody

Eureka Springs, Ark., March 29 – March CLO volume is finishing stronger with two new issues priced in the U.S. and European CLO primary markets, sources reported on Tuesday.

3i Debt Management Investments Ltd. brought a €413 million CLO deal following three new euro-denominated CLOs priced in the previous week.

3i’s transaction brings year-to-date euro-denominated CLO issuance to about €2.64 billion, according to Prospect News data.

In the U.S. primary market, Invesco Senior Secured Management, Inc. priced a $406.25 million CLO offering.

About $6 billion of U.S. CLOs have priced year to date, according to Prospect News data.

3i Debt prices €413 million

3i Debt Management Investments sold €413 million of notes due May 22, 2029 in the CLO offering via Resource Capital Markets, Inc. and RBC Capital Markets LLC, according to a market source.

Harvest CLO XV Designated Activity Co. priced €232 million of class A floating-rate notes at Euribor plus 150 basis points in the senior tranche.

The deal is backed by broadly syndicated senior secured loans.

3i Debt Management, the affiliate of London-based 3i Group plc, priced three euro-denominated CLOs in 2015.

Invesco sells CLO

Invesco Senior Secured Management priced $406.25 million of notes due April 20, 2028 in the Upland CLO, Ltd./Upland CLO, LLC transaction, according to a market source.

The CLO sold $235 million of class A-1A floating-rate notes at Libor plus 160 bps at the top of the capital structure.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. was the placement agent.

The offering is collateralized primarily by first-lien senior secured loans.

Proceeds from the transaction will be used to purchase a portfolio of about $400 million of mostly senior secured leveraged loans.

Invesco Senior Secured Management, a subsidiary of Atlanta-based Invesco, Ltd., was in the primary market in 2015 with two CLO deals.
