Sculptor Capital Closes $408M CLO, Bolstering $13B Global Credit Portfolio
Sculptor Capital Management, Inc. has completed the closing of Sculptor CLO XXXV (Sculptor CLO 35), a $408 million collateral loan obligation (CLO) transaction. With this closing, Sculptor now manages 34 CLOs and CBOs totaling approximately $13 billion across the U.S. and Europe.
Sculptor CLO 35 is supported by a nearly fully ramped $400 million portfolio of primarily senior secured loans, featuring a five-year reinvestment period and a two-year non-call period. Arranged by BNP Paribas, the CLO attracted strong demand for its debt and equity tranches from a diverse group of prominent global institutions.
“Sculptor has a long track record of managing CLOs through multiple credit cycles and this is due to our investor support and the extensive experience of our Institutional Credit Strategies (ICS) business,” said Josh Eisenberger, Executive managing director and Head of U.S. CLO Management at Sculptor. “The execution of CLO 35 – despite challenging market conditions – demonstrates not only the resilience of our credit platform but also the strong momentum and performance we’ve seen over the last 18 months.”
Since 2012, Sculptor has issued 46 CLOs and CBOs across the U.S. and Europe. As of March 1, 2025, the firm manages $23 billion in global credit assets, spanning corporate, asset-based, and real estate credit strategies.
