Session information
Session eight: The blurring of lines: private credit, debt capital markets and the future of corporate finance
Friday 12 September (1545 - 1700)
Description
The panel will discuss the evolving landscape of alternate corporate finance and increasing convergence of private credit with debt capital and securities markets. Among other issues, there will be a focus on:
- the increasing reliance on private credit in the last few years and whether we see that trend shrinking in light of central bank rate cuts;
- interesting hybrid structures (with loan and securities like features) and examples, or lack thereof, of bank and private credit partnerships; and
- the anticipated role of banking and securities regulators in regulating private credit funds.
