NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VanEck today announced a reduction in the management fee for the VanEck CLO ETF (CLOI), effective October 7, 2026. CLOI's total expense ratio will decrease from 0.36% to 0.29%. This is the second fee cut for CLOI in the last year, underscoring VanEck's commitment to cost-efficient access to collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) and reinforcing CLOI's leadership within the CLO ETF space. “The floating rate and enhanced yield exposure that CLOs provide is attractive in.

During periods of elevated market stress, including those that see pinched corporate bonds, collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) often outperform other corporate bond assets. Add to that, CLOs often emerge from those rough patches in strong form, delivering impressive returns a year after downturns.

Private credit has gone from a niche corner of finance to a $1.5 trillion-plus asset class that now extends more middle-market loans than the regional banking system.

The 2026 Global ETF Outlook from State Street made a specific call about where fixed income flows are heading.

VanEck CLO ETF earns a buy rating for its dynamic allocation across IG CLO tranches, offering a compelling blend of yield and risk control. CLOI's active management by PineBridge enables opportunistic rotation, capturing a persistent 50–150 bps complexity premium over comparable corporate credit with minimal duration risk. The fund's floating-rate structure, strong diversification, and near-zero equity beta make it an effective non-correlated income sleeve as Fed policy normalizes.

As we navigate the first quarter of 2026, advisor interest is increasingly shifting toward traditional hedges and quality-oriented products. VanEck, a pioneer in thematic and hard-asset investing, has seen its lineup take center stage as market participants grapple with a shifting macro environment.

Constructing a stable income portfolio in today's volatile market favors CLO bond ETFs with strong yield and minimal drawdown. My recent portfolio revision removed underperforming or volatile funds, and adding top-performing AAA CLO ETFs and a diversified alternative. PAAA, CLOB, and UYLD are highlighted for superior total return, low drawdown, and attractive yield in their respective classes, with UYLD offering a near-treasury risk profile but higher yield.

The VanEck CLO ETF offers core income exposure to investment-grade CLO tranches, with a focus on floating-rate, short spread duration assets. I recommend maintaining a portfolio allocation of no more than 2% to CLOI, given limited spread compression potential and risk of spread widening. CLOI's yield is currently around 5%, with over 90% of assets in AAA, AA, and A tranches, providing strong credit protection.

Francis Rodilosso and William Sokol appeared on Bloomberg's Inside Active Podcast to discuss how active management is essential in CLO investing. Why CLOs Stand Out in Fixed Income CLOs continue to present a compelling value proposition for investors seeking floating‐rate income and diversified credit exposure.

VanEck CLO ETF remains a buy, offering strong income and defensive positioning amid evolving interest rate and credit market dynamics. CLOI's floating-rate structure, high yield (5.95%), and active management make it attractive as the Fed approaches rate cuts, despite a slight dip in momentum. Expense ratio reduction to 0.36% and continued strong inflows highlight CLOI's competitiveness and growing investor demand for income-focused ETFs.
