Chapter 4️⃣ : “Are they even authorized to buy software from us?” What 5 year old company decides that the largest banks in the world need to license their software? And that one of the world’s most valuable public companies should partner with them? And that they can deliver both at the same time? We did, and it took quite a team to make it happen. Thank you to: 👉 David Thomas O'Malley for his partnership and for getting the team to believe 👉 Steve Abramson for his candor, trust, and including to do whatever it takes to get the job done 👉 Brian O'Neill for building a team to deliver for customers, whatever it takes 👉 Cody Putre, Robert Cavezza, Shivani Shrestha, and the Buttahknives for getting the job done 👉 Katya Chupryna, CFA and Michael Hershkowitz from Citi for your trust and investment in our vision — we continue to execute every day for you 👉 The whole JAM FINTOP team for their trust and advocacy in their leading network of banks 👉 Paul Martin, Camille Cohen, and Cheryl Kardos for making the Moody’s team successful 👉 The incredible people at Moody's Corporation — Glen Wordekemper, Max O'Neill, Mehna Raissi, Shailendra Jain, Andy Frepp — for your vision and your partnership, now and in the future. 👉 And the many other Numerators who have played key roles in the journey. I get it — reading all these audacious things, taken together, it does sound like trying to accomplish all of it is the stupidest *$^%ing idea ever. And yet…when the chips were down, the team found a way. I’m proud and humbled to have been a part of it. The book is now open to the next chapter and the pen is about to hit the page. More to come soon…

As the summer ends, it’s a great opportunity to reflect on a busy year thus far for our liquid and structured credit team. It is also the time of year where we start thinking about what lies ahead. Although it is not quite yet “outlook season,” I want to acknowledge the contributions of my colleagues and share what our team is focused on as we approach the back end of the year. As we navigate the complexities of today's credit markets, our team remains broadly constructive on credit. Yields on corporate and structured credits remain at attractive levels, but the evolving macroeconomic and geopolitical environments, along with potential shifts in Fed policy, could introduce volatility. In response, we're executing a disciplined approach focused on reducing risk and enhancing portfolio quality while allowing for flexibility to capitalize on the potential idiosyncratic opportunities that continue to arise. To that end, here are three key takeaways from our team on the current market landscape: 1. Liquid Credit: Corporate credit, particularly in the bank loan sector, continues to offer attractive yields. With spreads wide relative to history, there are compelling opportunities, especially within the single-B segment. We are selectively adding exposure to credits with strong fundamentals, even as we remain vigilant about the potential for increased volatility. 2.    Structured Credit: The structured credit market, especially CLOs, remains resilient with steady issuance and strong investor demand. Our own CLO management business has had an active year thus far, issuing, resetting and refinancing several new deals over the period. On the CLO investing side, technical conditions remain favorable, and we see attractive value in parts of the capital stack particularly in CLO mezzanine debt. We are also finding compelling opportunities in the asset-backed markets through bespoke transactions. 3. Default Rates and Risk: Despite the higher interest rate environment, default rates have remained low, and forecasts have generally improved since mid-2023. This stability reflects the strong fundamentals of many companies, even in a higher-for-longer rate scenario. While we remain mindful of potential risks, we expect default rates to remain near current levels.
