Private credit and secondaries become increasingly popular among Korean investors, says CIOs.

Quick Summary:

Korean Federation of Community Credit Cooperatives (KFCC) will increase its exposure to private debt in the second half of this year, with a focus on senior secured direct lending rather than distressed debt or mezzanine loans, CIO Youn Jee-sun said.

The alternative investment amounted to 12.6 trillion won, of which private equity and debt, real estate and infrastructure each made up one-third.

Hanwha Life Insurance Co.sees attractive opportunities in the private equity secondary market as they have lower risks than in the primary market and offer discounts, CIO Shin Min-sik said.
