🤼 Is private credit getting too crowded? With over a trillion dollars added since 2018, it’s a valid question. 🔎 However, Goldman Sachs doesn’t see signs of a downturn. Private credit is filling a gap left by banks, and its market share is growing. 💸 Offering higher yields and lower volatility, the sector is expected to grow by another trillion by 2027. 👨🔬 At kennek, we see this growth driving demand for better operational tools for lenders. Our solutions ensure efficiency and success in this evolving landscape. #Privatedebt #PrivateLending #GoldmanSachs
Is private credit getting too crowded, or are there still opportunities in this fast-growing asset class? Stephanie Rader of Goldman Sachs Asset Management separates the signal from the noise.

What do lenders and Lewis Hamilton have in common? (This one will surprise you!) 🏆 Lewis Hamilton clinched victory at Silverstone this weekend in a tumultuous race 🔧 He thanked his team and took his lead engineer “Bono” onto centre stage with him 💻 What he did not say, is that his car, like all the F1 cars, is powered by the same technology provided by McLaren 📚 The facts: In 2006, the FIA understood that all F1 teams needed excellent technology to race but recognised that the costs of competing became unsustainable for most teams So they put out a tender for a standard set of electronics for F1 cars McLaren won the tender and now provide the technology for ALL F1 teams 🧠 Lessons: 🏎️ F1 teams know that good technology is critical for performance but it is not differentiating. What makes them unique is their brand, team and risk appetite. 💰 The same can be said of lenders. Excellent lending technology is crucial for scalability, cost-efficiency, risk-management and investor reporting. But it is not differentiating.

📊 UBS Private Credit Market Outlook confirms kennek's vision. UBS's latest outlook on private credit highlights key points despite the challenges posed by an inverted yield curve, tighter lending standards, and higher interest costs: 👍 Supportive Conditions Ahead: Above-trend growth, declining inflation, and easing monetary policy are expected to support risk assets moving forward 📈 Attractive Yields: The increase in interest rates has pushed private credit yields over 10%, offering strong potential for future returns 📉 Low Default Rates: Private credit defaults continue to stay below those of high-yield bonds and leveraged loans, indicating that experienced private debt managers are effectively managing through high rate and volatile markets 🏦 Bank Involvement: Banks have modestly reentered the funding space in 2024, with USD 13 billion moving from direct lending to the BSL market year-to-date, but the impact on private credit is minimal 🌐🚀 At kennek we help private lenders navigate these market dynamics efficiently, leveraging the latest tech tools to manage operations seamlessly #PrivateCredit #privatedebt #Fintech
