Q2 2025 BDC Credit Stress Monitor: Mark-Up/Down Report

BDC filing season offers a rare window into private credit. With limited transparency across non-dealer-covered markets, quarterly filings remain one of the few structured touchpoints to understand how credit quality is shifting beneath the surface. 

Our Q2 2025 BDC Credit Stress Monitor: Mark-Up/Down Analysis reports that last quarter, 65% of BDC-held investments deteriorated, an abrupt reversal from Q1, when nearly 60% showed price appreciation. This quarter’s findings reveal material pricing shifts across sectors: 

  • Top areas of appreciation: Financial Services, Software & Technology, Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals.
  • Sectors under pressure: Software & Technology, Financial Services, Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals.
  • Overall trend: Nearly two-thirds of observed investments marked down relative to prior-quarter BDC valuations. 

The full report includes 1,100+ individual investments and their corresponding portfolio companies, with clear visibility into which positions appreciated or depreciated.
