Practical Applications of The Components of Private Debt Performance

Practical Applications Summary In The Components of Private Debt Performance, from the Spring 2018 issue of the Journal of Alternative Investments, authors Margherita Giuzio and Sandra Paterlini of the EBS Universität in Wiesbaden, Germany, and Andreas Gintschel of Prime Capital AG analyze the nature of private debt returns and compare the performance of the asset class with returns from other investments. They determine that private loans trade at a premium most likely explained by their complexity and illiquidity. The authors also conclude that private loans offer higher returns than other investments such as equities, real estate and corporate debt, and are uncorrelated to non-debt investments.
