ADDX Fireside Chat: Introduction to Private Credit

Lending has traditionally been the purview of banks. But the evolution of capital markets in the past few decades has provided more avenues for companies to access credit, and more recently, the growth of the private credit market has further contributed to global bank disintermediation.  

Private credit refers to non-bank lending where the debt is not issued or traded on public markets. While perhaps not as well-known as private equity or venture capital, private credit is now the third-largest asset class in private capital, with US$951 billion of assets under management in global private credit funds as of June 2020, according to Preqin. The sector’s 20% CAGR has seen the asset class grow 14-fold since 2000.  

To learn more about this exciting asset class, join us for an educational webinar with SeaTown Holdings. Established in 2009, SeaTown is an investment manager focused on alternative, absolute return strategies, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings. We will explore topics such as: 

  1. What role can private credit play in your investment portfolio? 
  2. What are the risks involved in private credit investing, and how can you mitigate them? 
  3. How have the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic affected private credit investing? 
  4. What is the growth outlook for the private credit markets, both worldwide and in Asia? 

Tune in on Monday, 16 August at 5:00pm with industry veterans from SeaTown: Eddie Ong, Deputy CIO and Head of Private Investments; Chan Wei Hsien, Managing Director; and Yeo Wee Yap, Managing Director. 

The event will be moderated by ADDX’s Chief Commercial Officer, Choo Oi Yee.
