By Cristal Cody

Tupelo, Miss., May 16 – Redding Ridge Asset Management (UK) LLP plans to price €402.3 million of notes in the manager’s second euro-denominated broadly syndicated CLO of 2019.

Redding Ridge closed April 15 on its €451.83 million RRE 1 Loan Management DAC transaction. In that offering, the CLO manager priced the €252 million of class A-1 senior secured floating-rate notes at Euribor plus 109 basis points.

About €10 billion of new issue European CLOs have priced year to date, according to market sources.

Euro CLO primary AAA spreads have ranged from around the Euribor plus 90 bps area to Euribor plus 115 bps area year to date, according to market sources.

Most recently, Och-Ziff Europe Loan Management Ltd. was in the primary market on May 9 with the €406.3 million OZLME VI DAC vehicle, which sold €248 million of class A senior secured floating-rate notes at Euribor plus 114 bps.

The notes are collateralized primarily by broadly syndicated first-lien senior secured term loans and senior secured bonds.

The transaction is expected to close June 26.
