Date:

30 April 2026 12:00 to 14:30

Venue:

Barber-Surgeons’ Hall, Monkwell Square, Wood St, Barbican, London EC2Y 5BL

Chairperson:

Shalin Bhagwan, Chief Actuary, Pension Protection Fund (PPF)

Details:

• Is a bubble forming in private credit markets? With assets under management doubling from $1trn to $2trn, we examine whether rapid growth is masking mounting risks
• Private credit vs public markets: keeping perspective: private credit’s $1trn to $2trn growth is striking — but public equity markets expanded from $2trn to $13trn over the same period. We ask what that comparison tells us about relative risk, return, and the flow of capital.
• Risks and opportunities in a maturing market: As the cycle turns, we assess where the real vulnerabilities lie, which segments offer genuine value, and how to position your portfolio accordingly.
• Recent high-profile credit events are a timely reminder that underwriting standards matter. We unpick what happened and the broader implications for private credit investors.
