Bond-loan hybrid manager Diameter prices debut BSL deal

Diameter Capital Partners has priced its debut CLO after $250m seed funding from alternative asset managers Apollo Global Management and Corbin Capital, and the pension fund of renewable energy company Babcock & Wilcox. Despite being active in the bond-loan deals, this is the first traditional CLO priced by Diameter, making the firm a new entrance in the regular broadly syndicated loan CLO market.
