1 minute read | April.16.2026

A strong start to the year for the CLO market, our clients and Orrick. We are grateful to our clients for making Orrick the No. 2 CLO Arranger Counsel in Q1 2026, according to Octus, 9fin and Creditflux across global, European and U.S. categories.

We also earned No. 1 rankings for U.S. private credit arranger counsel and mid-market counsel.

Other highlights:

  • Our London team advised on four European private credit CLOs – the first European middle-market and private credit CLOs issued, including the most recent multicurrency private credit CLO.
  • 150+ CLO transactions totaling over $60 billion in the last six months across BSL, middle-market and private credit.

As the CLO market continues to evolve, Orrick remains focused on helping clients innovate, advising the Loan Market Association in its policy advocacy before Europe’s key regulatory bodies.

These results also reflect continued investment in the firm’s structured finance platform, including the addition of Suzanne Bell and William Bibby to Orrick’s UK Structured Finance team.
