Overview
Join ACG Pittsburgh & TMA Pittsburgh for a moderated discussion on Private Credit Markets. Private credit has become a dominant source of financing for middle-market companies, but today’s market is testing how resilient that growth really is. Higher rates, refinancing pressure, liquidity constraints, and borrower-specific stress are creating new questions for lenders, sponsors, advisors, and investors.
This panel will explore what is happening beneath the surface of private credit portfolios — from shadow defaults and liability management exercises to redemption gates, PIK structures, and widening performance gaps across the middle market.
Who Should Attend
This program is designed for investment bankers, private equity, direct lenders, turnaround and restructuring advisors, finance executives, and other middle-market deal professionals.
Key Takeaway
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the risks, pressure points, and opportunities shaping private credit as the market moves through the current cycle.
