Private credit for LPs

Know what's in your portfolio

Private credit allocators need to know what managers hold, how it compares to the market, where risk may be building, and whether valuations are credible. But underlying holdings lack timely and consistent transparency.

Preqin Private Credit gives LPs the holdings-level data and analytical tools to move from fund-level orientation to sector-, issuer-, and instrument-level analysis in a single, connected view.

Screen and select private credit managers

  • Assess private credit managers based on actual portfolio construction by looking through into the underlying BDC holdings data – issuers, instruments, lien positions, sector mix, and maturity profiles – combined with transaction intelligence data covering closed-end direct lending funds.

  • Compare listed BDCs, non-traded BDCs, and institutional closed-end funds on a consistent like-for-like basis through standardized holdings, sector, lien, maturity, and valuation data.

  • Dive deeper with holdings-level data into co-ownership and overlap analysis to test for portfolio differentiation, diversification, and underwriting discipline.

  • Track how a manager's holdings, sector exposure, lien mix, and valuation discipline have evolved over time and compare current positioning against peers and market trends to support re-up and allocation decisions with greater confidence.

Assess portfolio overlap and strategy

  • Unlock holdings-level visibility and identify hidden overlap and concentration across all funds in the book at issuer- and sector-level to support more informed allocation decisions.

  • Understand where refinancing pressure and maturity clustering are happening with maturity wall analysis at the instrument level across all funds, combined with price health and stressed or distressed exposure data, to pinpoint where risk is most concentrated.

  • Check for early stress signals before they appear in reported performance by surfacing price health deterioration, sector concentration, maturity clustering, and capital flow dynamics.

  • Assess actual liquidity behavior over time and under stress with gross inflow and redemption data for BDCs and semi-liquid vehicles.

Enhance valuation and risk monitoring

  • Surface valuation dispersion at issuer- and lien-level across all holders of an underlying issuer. Identify outliers and see where the same assets are being marked differently across managers.

  • Challenge or support internal valuations with external evidence by leveraging AI-powered research to rapidly assemble issuer-level mark comparisons and structured outputs for diligence conversations.

  • Assess how the portfolio may respond to changes in rates and refinancing conditions with instrument-level coupon, spread, lien, and maturity data. Identify the most vulnerable positions by connecting maturity walls with price health.

  • Bring independent, committee-ready external market context, including mark dispersion, sector health, maturity walls, and price health data to risk and valuation committee discussions.
