Shifts in Private Credit Fundraising Landscape
Recent changes in the private credit fundraising landscape have been primarily driven by interest rate hikes that began in 2022, marking the end of a period of cheap borrowing. This has resulted in increased competition among funds as they vie for a limited volume of mergers and acquisitions activity. Notably, major funds like Fidelity International and Poland Capital have withdrawn from European direct lending, illustrating a significant shift in strategy influenced by the economic climate. As the landscape evolves, fundraising is becoming more challenging, leading to fewer funds closing with only established players seeing substantial success.
