Send us a text

In this episode of Resonanz Spotlight: Strategy Notes, Vincent and Saâd break down why SRTs and CLOs, often grouped under “structured credit”, are actually two very different games. They explore how banks, regulators, and investors each approach these structures, why incentives diverge, and what allocators must understand before deploying capital. In under ten minutes, this conversation demystifies the mechanics, motivations, and market dynamics that separate synthetic risk transfer from traditional CLO investing.
