This one day event will provide an in-depth exploration of the future of mid-market lending in Europe.

With companies operating against a backdrop of unprecedented macro and geopolitical volatility and the mid-market lending space becoming ever more crowded there has never been a more important time to understand how to successfully implement a private debt strategy.

Topics will include:
• Macroeconomic update: how the war in Ukraine, supply chain disruption, inflation and rising interest rates are impacting the European debt markets
• As the private debt markets become more and more competitive, how are lenders continuing to compete beyond pricing? What innovative products are available in the mid-market?
• Sponsor versus sponsor-less lending: what is the demand? What makes a good lender? And how do they differ?
• How to successfully implement an ESG strategy within private debt
• Fund finance and NAV based lending: what does the supply/demand dynamic look like?

Join us to discover how to successfully navigate the rapidly evolving private debt landscape in order to stay ahead of the competition.
