Women in Private Debt Forum North America 2024 | PEI Group | 15 May 2024 | Convene, 117 W 46th St, New York, NY 10036, USA

The forum will bring together institutional investors, fund managers and the surrounding industry, providing a platform for men and women of all levels to build a network within the asset class.

Unrivalled cross-asset class networking:
• This is an event like no other within the asset class for networking. Throughout the unique event there are opportunities to take part in the discussion and make real lasting connections with industry participants. Join a seated working lunch, investor-only workshop, roundtable discussions, think-tanks, mentoring sessions, and many other networking sessions.

Hear the latest trends in private debt:
• Get a sense of the private debt market and discover latest market dynamics including sponsorless deals, special situations, investor interest in speciality finance, opportunities in corporate credit and much more.

Gain crucial investor insights:
• Get a view across the investor spectrum from foundations, sovereign wealth funds, insurance companies and public and private pension funds. Understand what matters most to them, how real estate has compared to other asset classes in the past two years.

Cross-asset class agenda highlights include:
