Thank you to the 85+ CMOs, CROs, and CTOs from 45 portfolio companies across 8 countries who joined us last week for Sagard’s fourth Growth Summit in New York.

We’re already looking forward to the Growth Summit 2025! #GrowthSummit #ProfitableGrowth #AI #Efficiency #CMO #CRO #CTO

Sagard Credit Partner and Portfolio Manager Mustafa Humayun recently joined Nasdaq Trade Talks host Jill Malandrino for a segment on Generational Trends Regarding Investments in Alternative Assets alongside representatives from Palisades Group and Percent. Here are some of Mustafa's key insights: ▪ Amidst a crowded private credit market leading to reduced spreads, we believe focusing on non-sponsored deals is essential; ▪ Maintaining a focus on cash-pay middle market investments can provide stability during periods of rising interest rates and diverse payment structures; ▪ We believe disciplined deal selection and a proactive strategy are crucial for delivering consistent returns in today's challenging market environment.
