Abstract: 

The authors discuss the LSTA case and argue that a new CLO that would otherwise qualify as an open-market CLO should not be deemed a balance-sheet CLO solely because it acquired certain assets from an existing account rather than in open-market transactions. They close with five factors that should make it more likely for a new CLO to qualify as open-market.
