Newly launched leveraged loan index builds on interconnected data solutions to deliver investors much needed insight into a traditionally opaque asset class<\/em><\/h2>\n

Bloomberg today announced the launch of a global syndicated loans offering to help investors assess and act on opportunities in these complex markets. The offering includes Syndicated Loans Data Solutions covering 74,000 active syndicated loan tranches globally, a New Issues data feed that captures real-time announcement updates, as well as enhanced pricing from Bloomberg\u2019s evaluated pricing service (BVAL). To support clients’ need for robust benchmarking, Bloomberg launched a US Leveraged Loan Index, covering 1,300 leveraged loans with $1.3 trillion in market value.<\/p>\n

Benchmarking with Bloomberg Indices<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Bloomberg US Leveraged Loan Index<\/a> is the latest extension of Bloomberg\u2019s fixed income index suite and will apply the same rigor of objectivity, representativeness and transparency, which has made the Bloomberg Fixed Income Indices<\/a> industry-leading for more than 50 years. The index will serve as a credible portfolio benchmark, informational measure and as a reference for index-linked products for US leveraged loan investors.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve seen tremendous demand for access to the leveraged loan markets in a more transparent way. With Bloomberg\u2019s new Leveraged Loan Index and underlying data solutions, we are delivering a game-changing alternative and addressing gaps for investors in these markets,\u201d said Nick Gendron, Head of Fixed Income Index Product at Bloomberg Index Services Limited. \u201cThis launch represents a significant milestone in our commitment to expand the Bloomberg Fixed Income Indices offering and deliver enhanced value to our clients.”<\/p>\n
