Today, Flat Rock Global, LLC ("Flat Rock Global" or the "Firm") announced the launch of a new interval fund, the Flat Rock Enhanced Income Fund ("the Fund"). The Fund will invest primarily in the junior debt tranches of Collateralized Loan Obligations ("CLOs"), with a particular emphasis on tranches initially rated "BB" by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization3, such as S&P Global Ratings. "Investing in CLO BB notes continues Flat Rock Global's emphasis on investing in niche asset classes we believe may generate innovative risk-adjusted returns," said Robert Grunewald, Founder and CEO of Flat Rock Global. "Our goal is to provide investors with diverse exposure to senior secured loans with the additional benefit of CLO equity providing a buffer against losses," he further commented.

Shiloh Bates, the Fund's Chief Investment Officer, further commented, "CLO BB1 notes have had average annual defaults since 1994 of only 32 basis points2, providing investors with a unique format in which to own private credit."

The Fund is the third interval fund managed by Flat Rock Global, which also manages the Flat Rock Opportunity Fund and the Flat Rock Core Income Fund. The Firm had over $550 million in assets under management on Dec. 31, 2022.

The Fund is organized as a Delaware statutory trust and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as a continuously offered, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that is operated as an interval fund. The Fund uses the ticker symbol FRBBX. Ultimus Fund Distributors serves as the Fund's principal underwriter.
