Money Market

Each month we share the conclusions from the monthly strategy investment committee which provides a summary of Ostrum AM's views on the economy, strategy and markets.

Private Credit has moved to the forefront of market discussions, often associated with concerns over liquidity, asset quality and underwriting standards, as well as investor behaviour.Yet behind the headlines lies a heterogeneous asset class whose risks and dynamics demand further investigation.Importantly, not all Private Credit segments face the same challenges, nor do they carry the same risk profile. Recent scrutiny has focused on redemption risk from so called “semi-liquid” funds, further exacerbated by growing concerns around the asset class exposure to the software sector.This analysis aims to cut through the noise and restore perspective.
