  • Strategy Deep Dives

The growth and return opportunities for direct lending in Europe’s mid-market are highly attractive.
With banks continuing to reduce lending volumes and increased market volatility reducing the
predictability of public financing markets, private credit has emerged as a robust solution for borrowers

through the cycle for both borrowers and LPs.
