Role of Quants in Credit Investing/ Trading: ABS, Structured Credit, Corporate Loans

The evolution of credit trading electronically and potentially automatically is all but guaranteed.

What are current Credit HF, and other investors/ trader of credit doing at the moment on automating credit trading?

• Banks
• Regional banks
• Finance companies
• BDCs
• Institutional investors
- CLOs
- Pension funds
- Insurance companies
- Hedge funds
- Retail mutual funds

Structured credit products or corporate loans tend to trade less on e-trading platforms. With interest rates on the rise, shifting regulatory landscape in the U.S., there seems to be demand for more floating rate interest rate products such as corporate loans and ABS.

Is the market poised for new entrants and potential HFT / market makers that will trade to exploit trading opportunities, or are the corporate loan and ABS products too complex?
