The rise of retail investors in European private credit

The rapid growth of private credit has meant that the investor base is broadening beyond institutional investors, as private credit managers innovate product offerings for wealth investors. Whilst it remains an emerging trend in Europe compared to the US, retail investors are now able to access private markets more easily under the ELTIF 2.0 framework, and with continued retrenchment in lending by European banks, it is expected that momentum in the market will only increase. Our panel of experts will discuss:

  • What is prompting the increased demand for semi-liquid funds and the democratization of private credit?
  • What is being offered, such as terms, fee discounts and co investments to get LPs through the door?
  • How is the rise of retail investors impacting the dynamic between GPs and LPs?
  • ELTIF 2.0- what are they key changes, strategies and challenges?
