Panel discussionCredit Risk

2026-09-24 | 03:00 PM - 03:40 PM | OG Anunoby Room

Information

  • As private credit takes a larger share of portfolios, how are you building independent views on unrated and illiquid risk for governance, valuation confidence, and investment decision-making?
  • How are you identifying and managing indirect exposures to private credit through shared borrowers, fund lending lines, and investor overlaps?
  • What role should AI early warning systems play in building resilience and capturing second-order effects from private credit stress?
  • How confident are you in the valuations your counterparties are carrying on illiquid assets, and how do you challenge marks you cannot independently verify?
  • Where does responsibility for private credit concentration risk sit within your institution, and how integrated is the oversight between credit risk, treasury, and the front office?
