Can Private Credit Turn it Around in This Interest Rate Environment

Private equity thrived during the low-interest-rate era, leveraging debt to enhance returns, but changing financial conditions are testing its resilience. While assets under management continue to grow, firms are struggling to deploy capital and exit investments, with a rising backlog of unsold assets. 

 

Higher interest rates have complicated deal economics, and a shifting IPO landscape has limited traditional exit strategies. Regulatory scrutiny, particularly on antitrust grounds, has also slowed transactions, making liquidity harder to generate. 

 

Despite these challenges, liquidity remains accessible through dividend recapitalizations and secondary sales, suggesting the industry’s issues are cyclical rather than existential. 


Finsum: If we are entering a more volatile financial era, private equity’s debt-driven model may need to adapt to a world less favorable to leverage.
