Private credit is reshaping global capital markets at an unprecedented pace. What began as non‑bank lending to middle‑market borrowers, has expanded across asset classes and structures from private placements and asset‑based finance to real estate, infrastructure, and fund finance fueling new competition and partnerships among banks, insurers, and asset managers. As capital shifts further into private markets, opacity increases, risk profiles diverge, and traditional public‑market signals become less reliable.
For more than 100 years, Moody’s has set the standard for understanding credit risk in public markets. We bring that same analytical rigor to private credit providing the insights, data, and research market participants need to identify emerging risks, compare opportunities across strategies, and make more informed decisions in a rapidly expanding and increasingly complex private credit ecosystem.
Stay ahead in private markets. Amidst unprecedented uncertainty and volatility, private credit and private equity are about to confront their biggest test in a long time. These markets have experienced strong growth, thriving in both favorable and adverse conditions. However, new obstacles are emerging.
