Decline in Direct Lending in America Despite Surge in Private Credit Fundraising
Data shows that direct lending activity provided by private credit firms in the United States sharply declined in the second quarter of the year, despite an increase in fundraising for credit funds. These funds raised $16.25 billion in the second quarter, compared to $1.3 billion in the first quarter, the highest level in two years. However, the total amount of direct lending decreased to $33.59 billion, the lowest since the second quarter of 2023, and the number of deals dropped to 154 from 217 in the first quarter, affected by rising interest rates and a slowdown in M&A transactions. This reflects a divergence between capital flows and actual financing, with fund managers becoming more selective in the private credit market.
