ELFA Enhances CLO ESG Questionnaire Following CLO Investor Committee Review

London, 16 December 2025 – The European Leveraged Finance Association (ELFA) is pleased to announce an update to its CLO ESG Questionnaire, led by ELFA’s CLO Investor Committee.

The revised questionnaire improves the structure and clarity of ESG disclosures at both the manager and investment level, helping ensure that information provided to investors is more consistent, transparent, and decision-useful. The update reflects feedback from CLO investors and managers and is part of ELFA’s ongoing work to strengthen market practices on a voluntary basis.

Ed Eyerman, CEO of ELFA, commented: “This update reflects ELFA’s commitment to improving transparency and comparability in the CLO market. By working directly with the CLO Investor Committee we have refined the questionnaire to support clearer and more practical ESG disclosure. We appreciate the collaboration and continued engagement of all participants.”
