Blue Owl Anxiety Rattles $1.8 Trillion Private Credit Market
Worry in the private credit market continued Monday after Blue Owl last week permanently closed one of its tech-focused funds preventing investors from withdrawing their cash every three months as they'd previously been allowed. The firm began selling assets to return investor capital. It's the latest sign of tumult in a $1.8 trillion market stricken with worry about overspending on artificial intelligence, the technology's disruptive power and lending standards more broadly. And it's evoking comparisons to the run-up to the 2008 financial crisis. Bloomberg News Senior Editor for Credit James Crombie joins Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss. He speaks with Carol Massar and Emily Graffeo.
