Private Credit Rising To Claim Assets In Financial Market

A few weeks ago, Bertie got pulled into an odd cricket match.

- 

The kids and their fathers in his apartment complex decided to have a 'Lads versus Dads' game. Although Bertie has no lads, he knows a few of the dads, so he turned up to watch this unique contest.

As luck would have it, one of the dads dropped out at the last moment, and Bertie was pressed into service as an impact substitute.

The dads handily thrashed the lads, but what warmed Bertie's heart was that every mom who had come to watch was unconditionally supporting the lads. Thankfully, Bertie will never know how it feels to see the love of your life cheering for the opposition, even if it is your own offspring.

After the game, while the lads moped with their moms, the dads did the predictable—headed to a bar for a post-match drink. Bertie got talking with two of the dads who worked with the same multinational firm that had recently set up shop to grow their private credit book in India.
