Out of the shadows: The growing regulatory spotlight on private capital
In Brief
Over the past few years, the function and scope of private credit within financial markets has increased greatly. As private credit funds play a greater role in activities traditionally undertaken by banks, they are attracting growing scrutiny from both regulators and governments who are concerned about heightened risks to the financial system.
In this special podcast, a selection of senior Freshfields lawyers from different jurisdictions explore the increasing regulatory scrutiny of private credit across the world. Matt O'Callaghan, a partner in the firm’s Hong Kong office and head of the financial services regulatory team in Asia, hosts an insightful discussion featuring Nariné Atamian from Freshfields in New York, Greg King in London, and Theresa Kreft in Munich, in which they look beyond the headlines and share their perspectives on the changing regulatory landscape.
