KBRA Releases Research – Private Credit: Structured Credit Trend Watch—AI and Conflict Shape Market Outlook
KBRA releases research examining trends across the structured credit landscape. Structured credit and collateralized loan obligation (CLO) market activity was relatively stable in early 2026. Issuance volume remained on pace with 2025, average broadly syndicated loan (BSL) AAA CLO spreads were largely range-bound between 115 basis points (bps) and 131 bps, and middle market (MM) CLO AAA spread premiums tightened. However, these trends largely preceded the recent increase in market uncertainty.
