‘Private credit will eclipse equity in the next decade’
Despite rapid development, private credit is still in its very early growth stages. Despite macroeconomic and cyclical challenges, Jiři Król, the deputy CEO of the Alternative Investment Management Association, sees private credit catching up to the much larger private equity in the next 10 years. He also sees huge potential development from the reformed European long-term investment fund vehicle (Eltif).
Eltifs have a US parent: the Business Development Company
If there’s one thing clear from recent months, it’s that Luxembourg is placing a major bet on the future of Eltifs, or European Long Term Investment Funds. The EU’s adoption of a major upgrade of the Eltif regulation is opening the doors to private markets for high-net-worth investors and wealth management clients.
