Navigating Private Credit: Challenges and Opportunities

In this episode, we are joined by David Golub, President of Golub Capital and one of the first movers in the private credit industry. Since its founding over 30 years ago, Golub Capital has made over $150 billion in loans and won over 40 industry awards. Today, the firm has over $70 billion of capital under management.

During our conversation, David discusses how he and his brother, Lawrence, started Golub Capital and the drivers of its consistent performance year-over-year. We discuss the current state of the leveraged loan market, including impact of the higher-for-longer interest rate environment, the resiliency of middle market companies, and the recent resurgence of the broadly syndicated loan market. We also explore key industry trends, including the potential for consolidation, the competitive advantage of scale, and the growing retail market for alternative assets. Finally, David reflects on the future of Golub capital.
