Are we optimistic about private credit’s potential for promising yields or is the fundraising slowdown tempering the present excitement? The panel will further determine

Where investor allocations have shifted and where their appetites should be, providing compelling sides for both pro-risk and pro-investment of Private Credit.

How do both sides of the aisle feel LPs and GPs should approach evolving their credit strategies?

Which sub-strategies do investors expect this vintage to outperform: Buyouts, growth equity, venture?

Deep dive track sessions
11:00 - 11:30

Track 1: Keynote investor panel: Navigating growing expectations - The investors’ framework for future impact investing via PE

Beyond the “how we are investing or divesting”, we take a productive approach on what investors should be asking GPs and vice versa to ensure promising avenues for doing well and doing good.

Identify top opportunities and execute the allocation plan via robust due diligence

Balance the mission and market rate returns

Proactively assess political/regulatory/operational risks

Deep dive track sessions
11:30 - 12:00

Track 1: Case study reviews: At the cutting edge - Linking carried interest to sustainability

Structures vary from fund to fund, but the common theme is that a portion of the GPs’ carried interest to sustainability is contingent on the achievement of certain pre-determined “extra-financial objectives”. Is this the ultimate way of GPs putting their money where their mouth is and guarding against greenwashing? We hear from three firms that have introduced impact or ESG-linked carrymechanisms to assess:

How much carry is “at risk”?

How robust is the process for “marking your homework”?

Are there issues about investor alignment?

How is it working in practice/lessons learned?
