Overview
The shift to private credit began as a response to ultralow policy rates and risk-based constraints on bank lending. Since then, the boundaries between public and private credit have increasingly overlapped, reshaping capital markets and expanding the financing landscape for issuers and investors alike.
This first installment in a series of private market webinars sponsored by PGIM and hosted by CFA Institute explores the confluence of public and private credit, examining how this evolution is influencing capital structure decisions, investment approaches, and portfolio construction.
In this webinar, we will discuss the development of private credit markets, the opportunities across the credit universe, and the implications for issuers, investors, and asset allocators.
Timings:
1:00 PM ET | 6:00 PM BST
