Key Takeaways
  • • The only available supplemental material is a web-search snippet headlined "Why selectivity matters in private credit," which references Matt Darrah and a Principal Thailand post, indicating commentary on manager selection in the private credit market.
  • • The original FT Adviser article could not be retrieved, so the headline's central claim that private credit's fast growth is unlikely to slow cannot be verified against the article text.
  • • Available material offers no AUM figures, deal values, or forecasts, and the underlying thesis cannot be confirmed from the sources provided.
Summary
An FT Adviser article dated 2026-09-24, titled "Private credit's fast growth looks unlikely to slow," argues that expansion in the private credit market is not expected to moderate. The full text could not be retrieved, so the specific data, sources, and reasoning behind that view are not available here.

The only related material is a web-search snippet headlined "Why selectivity matters in private credit," which references Matt Darrah and a Principal Thailand post shared on Facebook. The snippet suggests that manager selection and underwriting discipline are central to the asset class's current phase, but the excerpt is too brief to attribute specific claims or figures.

Institutional allocators reviewing this topic should consult the original FT Adviser article for quantitative detail on fundraising, deployment, and growth projections before drawing conclusions.
