Private Credit at a Turning Point

The private credit industry has surged past $1.5 trillion and continues its growth trajectory as banks retrench and demand for flexible financing rises. This expansion creates both opportunity and uncertainty for asset owners. For example, according to MSCI’s Private Capital Universe, private credit closed-end funds outperformed private equity for the last three consecutive years—delivering a 6.9% annual return.

But with growth comes new challenges. How can investors evaluate risk, uncover hidden exposures, and ensure resilience in an opaque market? In this webinar, MSCI experts introduced a new Private Credit Risk Assessment tool designed to help asset owners gain deeper transparency into loan-level data, assess portfolio vulnerabilities, and capture emerging opportunities.
