While the potential is huge, especially with the U.S. addressable market estimated at over $30 trillion, sponsors must address the #cost and #liquidity challenges to unlock further #growth.

#PrivateCredit has been one of the fastest growing segments of the financial sector over the past 15 years, with expectations for continued growth in #ETFs tied to Business Development Companies (#BDCs) and other private credit vehicles. Issuers such as #StateStreet, #BondBloxx, and #Virtus have filed for actively managed private credit ETFs. However, high costs and liquidity challenges remain obstacles for fund sponsors. Overcoming these challenges will be important to accessing the U.S. private credit market, which has an addressable market of $30 trillion. ETFs that hold BDCs are emerging, but they currently have limited assets ($1.4 billion) and face high expense ratios, with one example at 13.33%.

ETFs holding Business Development Companies (BDCs) are a growing avenue for retail investors to access this asset class.

In the last week, there has been a lot of great discussion from industry peers like Nathan Geraci and Cinthia Murphy around ETFs providing access to private credit. A few thoughts from me on this issue: 1. Currently, holding Business Development Companies (BDCs) is the most feasible way for ETFs to provide access to private credit. The underlying BDC universe has grown significantly. At year-end 2019, there were 90 BDCs with $108B in assets. As of June ’24, that had grown to 147 BDCs with $355B. (h/t to Sourav Srimal from SOLVE for the BDC data) 2. Solve’s data also shows that BDCs have increasingly shifted their portfolio composition to 1st lien debt (now >80%) over the last 5 years. 3. A recent report (“The next era of private credit”) by McKinsey & Company highlights that private credit has been one of the fastest growing segments in financial markets in the last 15 years, so it seems likely more asset managers will want to play in this space. 4. However, it is still unclear whether private credit (other than in traded vehicles like BDCs) is compatible with the ETF's create-redeem process, or whether it is better suited for fund structures like interval funds. The SEC’s response to the private credit ETF filings will be one of the more closely watched approval decisions since spot bitcoin. The full note: https://lnkd.in/gbxFAhvx
