Mark, thanks for the reminder. We will include this deal in the list next time.

This list is mixing apples and oranges - it includes non-CLO transactions: Dryden 1 was a CBO. Zing V was a CDO of CDOs. GoldenTree HY Opps II was a CBO. The table should list only CLOs.

Still disappointed that your reporting is missing Jackson Creek CDO, a $200 million 2003 "discount" bond CDO transaction managed by former Jefferies Capital Management, the first of 6 CDO transactions (+5 CLOs) that the team issued after coming over from TCW in 2002. The transaction was co-managed by Babson and brought to market through Jefferies & Company. The transaction was liquidated successfully in 2005 with a 52% IRR (1.87x return of capital) and ranks as your second top performing fund. I raised this point the lst time this column was published and I ask that you revisit the data for next time. Thanks. Mark Senkpiel.
