Regulators Need to Play Catch-Up on Private-Credit Risk, Canada Central Banker Says
OTTAWA—Global authorities must step up their surveillance of lending by nonbank players such as hedge funds and institutional investors to minimize risks to financial stability, Bank of Canada Gov. Tiff Macklem said.
