The chapter provides insights into the positive shift in the leveraged loan market, discussing the rise in M&A activity and new deals in Europe, stability in credit, and financing availability. It analyzes LBO deal activity, the competition between private credit and broadly syndicated markets, collaboration between banks and direct lenders, and the growth of cross-border deals. Additionally, it explores investor appetite, driven by CLOs and retail funds, and the disciplined pricing and allocation strategies observed in the market.

This week, Laleh Bashirrad, managing director of BNP Paribas’ leveraged syndicate desk, joins Reorg’s Katherine Schwartz to discuss the mood of the market, including the M&A pipeline, the LBO market and the ongoing rivalry between private credit and broadly syndicated loans.
