Private Credit May Reduce Portfolio Volatility, Covenant Venture Capital Says
- Covenant Venture Capital’s analysis finds private credit may reduce portfolio volatility through contractual income, senior secured lending and disciplined underwriting.
- Periodic valuations can smooth reported returns but do not eliminate borrower distress or the risk of permanent capital losses.
- Floating-rate loans may reduce interest-rate sensitivity, though higher borrowing costs can strain weaker borrowers.
- Limited liquidity requires careful allocation sizing; portfolio stability depends on credit quality, lender protections and diversification.
