Private debt in focus

Download full monthly report


This is an excerpt from the full monthly report which goes deeper into how private debt is navigating key macro or market themes, current insights from our private debt platforms, and the landscape of the global private debt asset class.

Key takeaways

    We see a range of opportunities across various sectors and industries as we head into 2024.

    • In Private Credit, we favor outpatient care, specialty pharma, essential service providers, HVAC producers, and consumer-oriented brands with a sustainability focus. Additionally, we favor enterprise software companies that are deeply entrenched in companies’ business infrastructure as well as cloud migration companies.
    • In Real Estate debt, we favor medical offices, self-storage, and industrial assets around ports that stand ready to benefit from the theme of near-shoring. In Infrastructure debt, we favor hyperscalers (large data centers), contracted battery storage, and renewable fuels.
