By Roger Montgomery

  I joined Ausbiz to explore why private credit is attracting growing interest from investors. It can offer equity-like returns with far less volatility, while providing both diversification and  income. With stretched markets and retirees prioritising stability, private credit is fast emerging as a mainstream asset class in Australia.
