Private Debt Intelligence – 1/31/2022
Private debt’s expansion in Asia-Pacific
Growth of Asia’s private debt industry has accelerated in recent years, as the corporate debt market shifts from a conservatively priced, bank-dominated market to a more diversified market. Total private debt AUM focused on the Asia-Pacific region jumped by 28.9% since the start of 2020, reaching $85.6bn as of June 2021. This figure is dwarfed by North America-focused AUM, which stands at over $700bn as of June 2021, but lower levels of private debt penetration offer the prospect of higher returns.
