Private Credit is considered a high-risk investment. Investing in a private credit involves considerable risks, you should make sure you understand the risks before investing.
Private Credit debt instruments are subject to the risk that a borrower will default on the payment of principal, interest or other amounts owed. The financial strength and solvency of the issuer, including the lack or inadequacy of any collateral securing repayment affect credit risk.
In general, rising interest rates in the market will negatively affect the price of the debt instruments. Sensitivity to a change in interest rates is more pronounced and less predictable in instruments with uncertain payment (or prepayment) schedules.
Investments in private credit should be regarded as illiquid. Private credit is not listed on an exchange, traded in the secondary market and are generally not transferable.
