   Episode 22. Unlocking Asia’s Private Credit Potential

   In this episode of Financing the Economy, we explore the evolving private credit opportunity in Asia with SC Lowy, from the funding gaps created by traditional banking markets to where the most compelling opportunities are emerging today. We also discuss how managers are approaching capital deployment, what institutional investors are looking for when allocating to APAC private credit, and what could drive the next phase of growth across the region.
