Middle-market focus - A changing landscape

The European private credit middle market has captured the attention of lenders and sponsors alike, as muted deal flow and M&A activity and the resurgence of the BSL market has prompted a shift from the large-cap into the mid-cap. What does the increased competition within the middle-market mean for Europe’s players? Our panel of mid-market GPs will discuss the opportunity set and challenges on the horizon.

  • What are the key trends that will dominate the mid-market over the next 12 months, and how has the landscape shifted?
  • Where are mid-market lenders finding the best opportunities?
  • How has increased competition in the middle market affected pricing and deal terms?
  • For those looking to enter the mid-market, what are the challenges and barriers to entry in Europe?
