While it might be an exaggeration to place the words 'rude', 'health' and "collateralised loan obligation" (CLO) in the same sentence, the CLO market in the US has experienced a resurgence recently, with the amount of CLOs backed by syndicated loans issued this year – $3 billion – close to surpassing last year's entire take, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

In turn, the $3.4 billion worth of CLOs that US banks sold in 2010 was more than double the $1.22 billion taken in 2009. Otis Casey
