Private credit used to sound like a niche corner of finance. Not anymore. In a report released on May 6, 2026, the Financial Stability Board said the market had grown to an estimated $1.5 trillion to $2 trillion by the end of 2024—roughly similar in size to the institutional leveraged-loan market and the public high-yield bond market. The United States is the largest market, followed by the euro area and the United Kingdom. Private credit can help mid-sized companies get money quickly and on flexible terms, especially when banks become more cautious. But the FSB’s message is clear: the same flexibility that makes private credit attractive can also make it dangerous. (fsb.org)

The main problem is not only size, but visibility. Many private-credit borrowers do not have public ratings, and the FSB says leverage is often higher than in the broadly syndicated loan market. Some accounting adjustments can also make companies look safer than they really are. On top of that, leverage can sit at several layers at once: the company borrowing the money, the fund making the loan, the private-equity sponsor behind the deal, and even the investors financing their positions. In other words, risk can pile up quietly. The FSB also warns that banks, insurers, pension funds, and private-equity firms are becoming more deeply connected to this market, which means trouble outside the banking system could still spread back into it. (fsb.org)

Recent events make that warning feel timely. In its April 2026 Global Financial Stability Report, the IMF said private credit was facing “converging headwinds.” Its stress tests suggested that direct-lending default rates could more than double under a sharp shock to interest rates or company earnings, and that semiliquid funds could run through their liquidity buffers after several quarters of heavy redemptions. In March 2026, BlackRock and Morgan Stanley both limited withdrawals from private credit funds after redemption requests jumped, showing that liquidity pressure is not just a theoretical risk. (imf.org)

The FSB is not saying private credit is bad by itself. It says the market can support real economic activity. But it is calling for better data, closer supervision, and sharper monitoring of leverage, liquidity mismatch, insurer exposure, and cross-border links. The deeper lesson is simple and important: when lending moves outside banks, risk does not disappear—it often becomes harder to see. (fsb.org)
