Private Credit’s Next Wave: Corporate Lending, Asset-Based Finance and the Data Infrastructure Connecting Them
Private credit is entering its next phase of growth. Although the term was long used as shorthand for corporate direct lending, the market is broadening into asset-based finance, including financing supported by consumer receivables, mortgages, equipment, contractual cash flows and infrastructure assets. These exposures complement – not replace – corporate lending, while the boundaries between public and private markets continue to blur.
That evolution creates a new challenge for investors: how do you build a complete view of risk, valuation and opportunity when the underlying data is fragmented across markets, managers, assets and structures?
This brief explores where private credit is heading, why Asset-Based Finance is becoming an increasingly important part of the market, and the data infrastructure investors will need to navigate that shift. It also looks at how SOLVE is bringing together private credit, public-market, pre-trade and structured finance data to create a more connected view of the credit ecosystem.
