Josh Shipley, Managing Director and Head of Private Credit for Europe comments; "In a year marked by ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty, our European Private Credit Platform saw relatively consistent levels of deal flow across the credit spectrum. The longer-term funding, and flexible solutions that Institutional lenders, like PGIM, are able to offer borrowers have proven valuable to companies looking to mitigate risk and diversify their capital structures.

Whilst we note that the volatility in the wider market environment is likely to persist, we anticipate that demand for institutional financing will remain robust and we hope to see positive momentum as European growth indicators improve."
