New Bank Regulations Could Favor Loans to Private Credit
An obscure bank capital rule has helped enable the growth of nonbank lending like private credit. It could be about to get even more enabling.
One of the goals of some newly proposed U.S. capital rules is to help foster more bank lending. The thinking goes that tougher capital requirements for banks since the aftermath of the 2008 crisis have helped give rise to more nonbank lending, including the now trillion-dollar-plus private-credit market. Within that market are the nontraded loan funds that have been receiving a lot of investor redemption requests.
