Direct Lending and Private Debt have been the fastest growing segments of the alternative investment industry since the Great Recession in 2008. Then COVID - 19 hit and this market froze up and the Federal Reserve and Central Banks all over the world unleashed an unprecedented wave of liquidity to prevent unnecessary damage to the global economy. The secondary market responded quickly discounting the news. Operators have been slower to accept the new pricing of risk. Time has passed and things have been converging, listen to experts on the front lines as they discuss deals and insights into where things are today and where they see things going over short and intermediate term. This group will discuss and conduct an interactive Q&A session with audience engagement & participation. Join us for a thoughtful conversation that will undoubtedly provide direction to discounts or lack of discounts in new deals getting done.
Speakers: Michael D’Onofrio, Brock Freeman, Camilo Nino, Tim Sacks, and Stephan De Sabrit
