Stellantis grabbed the attention of the Another Fine Mezz team this week after pricing a huge €1.2bn Italian auto ABS with investors desperate to get their hands on it. 

The buzz from Barcelona is still continuing it seems with strong demand for a range of ABS paper, including Nationwide's second 'stock and drop' deal and yet more Italian paper, in the form of consumer ABS. 

Meanwhile in CLOs, the market is reopening at a slightly more leisurely pace. But Bain's decision to get out early has paid off, pricing at 141bp over three-month Euribor on Thursday. 

Finally, the team basked in the glory of finally acquiring a professional production editor.
