Private Equity News | Private Lending Firms Face Stiff Pressure as Banks Re-enter Leverage Loan Market
Jun 2024

Risks tied to private credit may be tested as investment banks re-enter the leveraged lending market.
“Proactive repricing is an indication they need to keep that money deployed,” Ron Kahn, co-head of Lincoln’s Valuations & Opinions Group, commented.
A potential concern for lenders facing higher risk is that they may encounter lower yields.
“At some point, it is possible that there might be too much money,” Ron said. “But I don’t think that exists yet, and I think private credit has so far been very disciplined.”
