The full detailed presentation of CSL’s second quarter 2023 results can be viewed here.

    Aren LeeKong, CSL’s Chief Executive Officer said, “In spite of a complex economic backdrop, our portfolio continues to generate attractive income for our investors and remained stable throughout the second quarter. With traditional deal flow in the market continuing to maintain a sluggish pace, we have focused on leveraging Carlyle relationships for unique deal flow and working with existing borrowers to address their needs, while improving pricing and documentation. This backdrop allows us to be highly selective and committed to disciplined credit underwriting, while capturing attractive terms and pricing.”
