Ares Dynamic Credit Allocation Fund raises CLO investment limit to 45% of managed assets

Mixed Impact 3 of 5 other Written later

The Fund amended a non-fundamental investment policy, raising its ability to invest in CLO securities and other asset-backed securities from 40% to 45% of Managed Assets and its ability to invest in subordinated (residual) CLO tranches from 10% to 15%. The change takes effect 60 days from the filing date and is intended to give the Fund more flexibility amid COVID-19 market conditions, but the filing states it will increase the risk of losses.
