Private credit is looking to catch the next wave of growth — in asset-based lending. In part, that is to sustain the sector’s extraordinary growth and to satisfy the sea change in allocations to credit. But firms are also jumping in because leveraged lending has become more crowded. How large is the addressable market? Our new estimates suggest specialty finance is a $5.5 trillion asset opportunity in the United States alone, where private credit today has less than a 5% share.   The need to secure access to these new asset classes is prompting private credit players to change tack, looking to partner up with banks rather than be their adversaries. In our new report, we explore what private credit 2.0 might look like — for banks and investors. Read the report here > https://owy.mn/3QlGDSd #PrivateCredit #SpecialtyFinance 

[Vote, then expand for answer] The modern Silk Road, from the Middle East to Asia, is home to eight out of the world's 20 top economies today. Its share of global GDP has risen to 40%, and we estimate it will reach 48% by 2040. The number of Fortune 500 companies based in the region has similarly grown to 221 — almost half of the total. We identify a series of no-regret moves that companies and governments can consider today to capture these opportunities in this region > https://owy.mn/3JvAVt7 #SilkRoad #Commerce #Business

Our Automotive and Industrial Goods team and our core consulting group have been visiting some influential auto shows over the past couple of months. These are their top 5 observations from attending the shows: 1. While the rise of electric vehicles has been steady over the last 10+ years, we are seeing a rise in large truck and SUV EV entrants like the GMC Hummer EV and the Ford F150 Lightning. 2. Increased hardware standardization (charging ports for EVs) is growing across automakers which allows for greater access to established charging networks. 3. Vehicle connectivity features, such as infotainment systems and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), have increased consumer expectations. Trends include integrating functions into central infotainment systems and providing separate infotainment units for front passengers with privacy screens. 4. Consumer preferences for higher sightline visibility, additional cargo capacity, and ergonomic ease have led to a decline in sedan offerings at car shows. Some manufacturers, like Ford, have completely eliminated their sedan lineup in favor of more SUV options. 5. Automakers are skipping booths at post-pandemic Auto Shows, focusing on digitization and remote car experiences. However, the remaining brands are using the available space to enhance the physical driving experience. Examples include off-road driving experiences and indoor circuits to feel the power of EVs.
