There is a lot to like about private credit. The potential for regular income, reduced volatility, diversification and floating rate notes, which can better weather higher interest rates.
However, as market conditions worsen, with concerns for very slow growth or even recession, to what extent are the default risks rising and the returns diminishing in a relatively new and opaque market?
In this seminar, we looked at the current opportunities and pitfalls for investors in private credit and real estate debt. With increased interest in responsible investing, we also looked at implementing impact strategies in private credit and finally assess the role of the private debt universe in a pension fund portfolio.
Held under Chatham House Rule with an invited audience of pension funds, this seminar allows speakers and delegates to discuss issues in a private and informal atmosphere.
