Hardman & Co Research: Volta Finance Limited (VTAS): An easy guide to the benefits of CLOs
The industry-specific terminology associated with CLOs can give the impression of a complexity to the product that belies reality, and, in our view, is unhelpful to the Volta investment case. Accordingly, in this note, we give investors a simple guide to what CLOs are, the benefits they provide, and how Volta is taking the market opportunities. The core of CLOs is uncomplicated cashflows. They are just a pooling of loans into a vehicle, which funds itself by issuing a range of debt and equity. The pool has diversification and credit-enhancement benefits, which result in investors in debt getting a better-than-average risk/return, and investors in equity getting double-digit returns.Volta Finance is a closed-ended investment company with the objective of investing, among other asset types, in the following main asset classes: Collateralized Loan Obligation, Synthetic Corporate Credit, Cash Corporate Credit and ABS. Co. has appointed AXA Investment Managers Paris S.A., as its Alternative Investment Fund Manager to manage the investments of Co.
