Sid speaks about private debt and how it has fared in what has been a particularly challenging environment, one complicated by a once-in-a-lifetime global pandemic, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, rising inflation and ballooning interest rates, as well as a myriad of other challenges including the increasing possibility of a global recession.

Sid delves into the local take-up of alternative investments, as well as how private debt portfolios are positioned in the context of what could be a potential recession.
