Janus Henderson’s B-BBB CLO ETF (JBBB) Exceeds $1 Billion in AUM

  • Janus Henderson has the two largest CLO ETFs with over 85% market share in all CLO ETF AUM
  • JBBB is only the second CLO ETF to reach $1 billion in AUM and is the second largest CLO ETF, behind only Janus Henderson’s AAA CLO ETF, JAAA

Janus Henderson Investors (NYSE: JHG) today announced that the Janus Henderson B-BBB Collateralized Loan Obligation ETF (JBBB), has exceeded $1 billion in AUM. JBBB is only the second CLO ETF to reach $1 billion in AUM and is the second largest CLO ETF behind Janus Henderson’s AAA CLO ETF (JAAA) as measured by AUM.1 JBBB now represents 55% of all below-AAA CLO ETF AUM.2

Following the success of JAAA, JBBB was launched in January 2022 and was the first ETF focused on providing exposure to CLOs generally rated BBB, expanding U.S. investor access to an asset class that historically was largely only available to institutional investors. JBBB seeks capital preservation and current income by seeking to deliver floating-rate exposure to CLOs rated between and inclusive of BBB+ and B- in a liquid, transparent manner. JBBB seeks to generate yields above high-yield corporates with lower default risk by investing primarily in investment grade CLOs. JBBB has grown by over $850 million in AUM this year alone3 and is managed by Portfolio Managers John Kerschner, CFA, Nick Childs, CFA, and Jessica Shill.

Janus Henderson has the two largest CLO ETFs with over 85% market share in all CLO ETF AUM.4 JAAA represents over 90% of all AAA CLO ETF AUM5, having surpassed $10bn in AUM in June 2024. It is the largest CLO ETF and the top actively managed fixed income ETF globally in terms of net inflows YTD.6

John Kerschner, Head of U.S. Securitized Products and Portfolio Manager at Janus Henderson Investors, said, “We have continued to see strong investor demand for our CLO ETFs and other securitized funds. Incorporating CLOs into a portfolio may help to enhance its overall risk/return profile given CLOs have historically been less correlated with the investment grade and high yield segments of the bond market and offer attractive yield on a relative basis. With Janus Henderson’s rigorous CLO manager due diligence and portfolio construction process, JBBB provides access to predominantly investment grade CLOs with potentially broad diversification benefits based on historically low daily volatility and low correlation to traditional fixed income markets, while offering yield potential.”

“We believe the growth of JBBB speaks to Janus Henderson’s continued focus on product innovation, competitive pricing and investment excellence. In our view, BBB CLOs are underrepresented in portfolios relative to other higher income solutions and may further enhance diversification in client portfolios,” added Michael Schweitzer, Head of North America Client Group at Janus Henderson Investors.

Janus Henderson has been at the forefront of active fixed income ETF innovation and offers a number of pioneering fixed income ETFs. In addition to JAAA and JBBB, these include the recently launched JSI, which invests in opportunities across the U.S. securitized markets, JMBS, the largest actively managed mortgage-backed securities ETF7, and VNLA, an active global short duration income ETF. Janus Henderson is the fourth largest active fixed income ETF provider globally.8 The firm won Global Capital’s inaugural CLO ETF Provider of the Year award in 2024.9

OBJECTIVE: Janus Henderson B-BBB CLO ETF (JBBB) seeks capital preservation and current income by seeking to deliver floating-rate exposure to collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) generally rated between and inclusive of BBB+ and B-.

Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) are debt securities issued in different tranches, with varying degrees of risk, and backed by an underlying portfolio consisting primarily of below investment grade corporate loans. The return of principal is not guaranteed, and prices may decline if payments are not made timely or credit strength weakens. CLOs are subject to liquidity risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, call risk and the risk of default of the underlying assets.

Concentrated investments in a single sector, industry or region will be more susceptible to factors affecting that group and may be more volatile than less concentrated investments or the market as a whole.

Derivatives can be more volatile and sensitive to economic or market changes than other investments, which could result in losses exceeding the original investment and magnified by leverage.

Actively managed portfolios may fail to produce the intended results. No investment strategy can ensure a profit or eliminate the risk of loss.

Credit quality ratings are measured on a scale that generally ranges from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings may differ by rating agency.
