Summary
What if the next financial crisis isn’t hiding inside the banking system, but outside of it? In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained, we unpack the explosive growth of private credit and the rise of a $2 trillion shadow banking system that is reshaping corporate finance. Once considered a niche alternative asset class, private credit has become one of the fastest-growing sources of business financing, allowing companies to raise billions of dollars outside traditional banks and public debt markets. We explore how private credit emerged after the 2008 financial crisis, why companies are increasingly choosing direct lenders over banks, and how structures like unitranche loans are changing the way deals get done. Along the way, we examine major transactions, hidden risks, and the growing concerns regulators have about transparency, leverage, and systemic risk.
