The pandemic has accelerated many themes already evident in private credit, with growing allocations to the asset class and more capital gravitating to the largest managers, say Jeffrey Griffiths and Richard von Gusovius, co-heads of global private credit at Campbell Lutyens.

Well-established lenders can prosper as private debt’s performance impresses investors, say Antares Capital’s David Brackett and Vivek Mathew.

Versatility and forward-thinking were the order of the day for debt funds last year, say David Allen, managing partner and chief investment officer, and Bill Ammons, founding partner and portfolio manager, at AlbaCore Capital Group.

The asset class came through 2020 in good health, but investors will ask questions as they look to differentiate, says Tavneet Bakshi, partner and head of EMEA at FIRSTavenue.
