Making sense of Private Credit: A powerful tool for fixed income portfolios
About this episode
David Ross discusses the growth and significance of private credit in investment portfolios.
David Ross, Global Head of Private Credit at Northleaf Capital Partners, joins host Rajan Bansi to break down one of the fastest-growing corners of the investment world. David explains what private credit is, why it took off after the 2008 financial crisis, and how institutional investors — not banks — have become the go-to lenders for many of today's top private companies. He also shares where Northleaf has the confidence to stay disciplined in both choosing where to invest and what they deliberately avoid, and why the current market environment may be one of the most attractive periods for private credit investors in recent memory.
