LP Perspectives
Our LP Perspectives study 2025 reveals investor enthusiasm for private debt continuing to grow, in spite of economic and geopolitical challenges that have had an impact of fundraising and deals. Just one peek into the swathes of data you can dive into on this page: 57 percent of LPs say they are keen to increase their private debt allocations over the next 12 months. That’s a stat to lift the spirits of GPs fighting headwinds.
Real Estate Debt
Real estate debt has had a tumultuous few years but market onlookers say there are reasons to be optimistic about its outlook in spite of muted fundraising activity. Amid growing investor interest in the multi-family, later living and student housing spaces, as well as growing innovation in the office and residential sectors, private credit firms are shoring up their lending expertise to prepare for an incoming wave of real estate financings.
Asset-based Finance
Asset-based lending is arguably the hot topic within private debt, as market commentators see potential for it to become as large – or even larger – than corporate mid-market lending. But it’s a complex area of investment, with many different types of asset used as collateral for loans. In our extensive coverage of the subject here, we explore all the key trends and dynamics in ABL.
