In this episode, Future Standard’s Investment Research team members, Alan Flannigan and Andrew Korz, are joined by Rob Hoffman, Head of Credit Solutions, for a data‑driven look at what’s really happening in private credit right now. They unpack the biggest headline concerns—PIK usage, redemption activity and gates, bank financing, defaults, software exposure and valuations—and explain how structure, lender protections and income durability shape outcomes across cycles. The discussion cuts through noise to highlight where selectivity, entry discipline and manager skill can matter most for investors navigating today’s market.
