Janus Henderson Launches AAA CLO ETF for Non-US Investors, Targeting Growing Demand in MENA Region
Janus Henderson Investors has announced the launch of a new AAA Collateralized Loan Obligation (CLO) Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) tailored for non-US investors, following the resounding success of its US-domiciled counterpart. The move marks a significant expansion in the firm’s global securitised credit offering and is poised to meet the rising demand for sophisticated fixed income solutions across regions including EMEA, Latin America, and MENA.
With this launch, Janus Henderson reinforces its status as the third-largest provider of actively managed fixed income ETFs globally, and the largest manager of securitised active ETFs. This new ETF product offers investors outside the US an opportunity to access high-quality AAA-rated CLOs in a liquid, transparent, and cost-efficient manner.
John Kerschner, Head of US Securitized Products at Janus Henderson, commented:
“Historically, accessing the CLO asset class has required scale and deep expertise. We’ve proven the value of our US AAA CLO ETF to clients by delivering diversification, attractive floating-rate yield, high credit quality, and resilience across market cycles. We're excited to extend these benefits through a non-US domiciled ETF.”
Ignacio De La Maza, Head of EMEA & LatAm Client Group, added:
“There’s been significant demand for our AAA CLO ETF from institutional investors worldwide. In the MENA region, especially, clients are looking for innovative fixed income strategies that combine credit quality with transparency and liquidity. With this launch, we are democratizing access to securitised credit through ETF structures, supported by Janus Henderson’s global expertise.”
The firm’s expansion into global ETF markets comes amid heightened interest in floating-rate income solutions that offer a buffer against interest rate volatility while maintaining investment-grade credit standards.
This launch is expected to appeal strongly to institutional investors, wealth managers, and family offices in the UAE and broader Gulf region, as they diversify portfolios and seek more sophisticated yield-enhancing tools.
