Description
There has been a rapid growth of private credit markets since the turn of the century. The volume has grown at virtually 20% a year. This reflects the advantages of this asset class to help enhance yield and diversify exposure. This panel of leading experts will discuss the most important considerations for institutional investors who plan to increase their commitments to corporate investments. You will come away understanding:
  • What yield premiums are available in the corporate field today and how does this contrast with the long-term average premium.
  • Where are the opportunities in the private debt space for institutional investors from 2019 to 2020?
  • How can investors assess the compensation they receive for illiquidity and credit risks?
  • What tools do successful bond managers employ to achieve superior results?
  • The most effective strategies for obtaining results in this sector
