As competition intensifies across traditional direct lending markets, investors are increasingly looking towards CLOs, asset-backed securities and structured credit opportunities to access differentiated sources of return. At the same time, changing issuance trends, evolving regulation and growing institutional demand are reshaping opportunities across securitised markets.

This session will examine how investors are using structured credit to enhance portfolio resilience and improve risk-adjusted returns. Panellists will discuss where they see the most attractive opportunities, how structured credit compares with private lending and how securitised markets fit within broader credit allocation frameworks.
