How has central bank intervention impacted the private debt market, and what do limited partners need to be looking out for? In this podcast, we seek answers from Barings’ Eric Lloyd, global head of private assets, and Jonathan Bock, chief financial officer of Barings BDC and managing director in the global private finance group.

As well as examining the so-called “refinancing wave”, we also explore whether private debt has passed its first big test in the form of the global pandemic, and whether there is a danger that some managers will be tempted into mission creep.
