Episode Details

Pranay Subedi, Associate Portfolio Manager in Fixed Income at T. Rowe Price, examines the health of the private credit market and how risk has shifted since the Global Financial Crisis. The discussion covers the evolution of BDCs and other private credit vehicles, why credit risk has migrated away from bank balance sheets, and whether today’s system may be more resilient than the pre-GFC framework.   The conversation also explores recent volatility in private credit, including redemption pressure in non-traded BDCs, liquidity risk, software exposure, and the potential impact of AI disruption. Pranay explains how he evaluates managers, why underwriting quality and funding structures matter, and what investors should watch as credit losses begin to normalize and the market heads into 2027.
