As competition across traditional direct lending intensifies, investors are increasingly turning to structured credit, asset-backed finance and specialty lending to access differentiated returns, diversification and more resilient income streams across public and private markets. 

This session will explore where investors see the most attractive opportunities across structured and asset-backed credit, how they are assessing relative value across liquid and illiquid markets, and how stronger underwriting and portfolio oversight can support better risk-adjusted returns in a more complex credit environment.
