In this special mini edition of What Matters, Frank Danieli, Head of Global Credit Solutions at MA Financial, unpacks the key themes from his September quarter private credit investor letter exploring the theme “the greatest teacher, failure is.”

Frank explains why at MA Financial we believe private credit investing is all about ‘avoiding losers, not picking winners.’ He reflects on recent high-profile borrower failures in the US such as First Brands and Tricolor, to illustrate the importance of managing credit risk and controlling structural risk, and the valuable lessons to be learned from studying situations that have gone wrong.

Frank’s quarterly letter and podcast are essential resources for updates on MA Financial’s Global Credit Solutions fund suite, and expert insights into the trends shaping private credit markets.
