Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) Vs. Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDOs)

 

Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) and Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDOs) are both structured finance products that pool debt into tranches with varying risk levels. The primary difference is their underlying collateral: CLOs are backed by senior secured corporate loans, while CDOs often hold riskier, diverse assets including mortgages or bonds.
