In this episode of The Credit Clubhouse, I sit down with John Kerschner, head of US Securitized Products at Janus Henderson, to explore the fascinating world of CLO ETFs.

John shares insights on the growth of CLO ETFs, their performance during market volatility, and the benefits they offer in terms of liquidity and diversification.
