Non-traded '40 Act funds in private credit are doing fine.
This is what "non-correlated" means:
• Blue Owl raises $500m for a $2b BDC today
• Apollo closes acq of Griffin capital and their $6.5b AUM today
• $FROPX yield is >12%, raised div 3x since 2019
Get it?
Yeah it's been a while
Since public mar-kets looked o-kayy
And it's been a while
Since I first told you
And it's been a while
Since nor-mal guys could inv-est in priv-ate cred-it
And it's been a while
Since you listened

One cycle I wish we could break: The one where investors begin a mad search for noncorrelated/diversifying assets AFTER the markets tank, then capitulate and sell the diversifiers when their performance struggles and conventional assets start performing better. 🤦♀️
We hit our threshold on fielding questions about redeeming shares of the ACAP Strategic Fund (kind of...an elaborate and expensive $ARKK).
So here's the 101 instead of writing yet another email.

Times like these, it's nice to be long on floating-rate senior secured corporate loans. At least so far.
There's a reason private credit crossed the $1 trillion mark in 2020. Don't be scared to look outside daily redeemable public securities.
Oops, SEC might not like how you make money selling ETFs - but the regulatory landscape continues to be refreshingly boring and predictable for interval funds.

Investment management atty calls on SEC to target Cathie Wood for juicing $ARKK in media appearances.
She won't get as much flak for talking up her new interval fund though - interval funds trade at NAV and are generally less subject to market whims.

Congrats @firsteaglefunds for cracking the retail channel and passing $350m.
With a 7.11% distribution yield - not unique to private credit - I'm curious how all the dividend ppl on FinTwit still justify sticking to 60/40

Mount Logan registers the Opportunistic Credit Interval Fund with a $1m minimum, which includes allocation to solar financing with no mention of being eco-friendly.
The firm clearly sees value in solar credit outside of the marketing boost. Check it out: intervalfunds.org/insights/m…
Two for @PIMCO today.
If you like passive income, but don't enjoy paying California income taxes, you might want to check out their newly registered interval fund: intervalfunds.org/insights/p…
Now Barclays wants a shot at private credit, less than a year after Morgan Stanley closed its third US private credit fund at $1.6b.
What's your private credit allocation? If you're not accredited, it's probably zero without interval funds.

Want to invest in private credit and access risk-adjusted return, low correlation, and strong yields?
How about the upside from exposure to pre-IPO equity?
The SEC is considering making these 10x harder to access - but you still have options if you know where to look.

Unaccredited? You can still invest in private markets via interval funds and other unlisted '40 Act funds.
If the SEC does raise the threshold, interval funds will be one of most peoples' only options to gain private credit exposure.
