Lately, private credit has attracted its share of grim headlines, but as Lotfi Karoui — PIMCO Managing Director, Multi Asset Credit Strategist and Co Head of Client Solutions and Analytics — points out, many recent developments in the space should be seen as expected features of a cyclical credit market. In his debut appearance on Accrued Interest, Lotfi and host Greg Hall dig into the private credit story: from direct lending’s emergence after the Great Financial Crisis, to its explosive growth post-COVID, and what we can expect in the future as investor expectations realign to actual opportunities and risks. They also explore diversification options within the private credit landscape, including asset-based finance (ABF) and real estate. Join us in welcoming Lotfi to PIMCO and Accrued Interest. Show notes: (3:50) The emergence of direct lending after the Great Financial Crisis (7:26) The explosive growth of direct lending post-COVID (15:29) Why are we seeing headlines about private credit?

What began as an uncertain year has only grown more unpredictable, with conflict in the Middle East and stress across credit rattling the broader markets. Christian Stracke, PIMCO’s President and Head of APAC and EMEA, joins Accrued Interest to lay out a framework for investing when uncertainty and volatility are features, not the exception. Together, he and host Greg Hall get into the ripple effects that the latest geopolitical shocks could have on oil prices, inflation and global markets—and why there’s “a crisis of confidence” in some, not all, parts of private credit.

Stability, calm, and order are giving way to fragmentation, volatility, and surprise. In his most recent PIMCO Perspectives, co‑authored with Marc Seidner, Pramol Dhawan says that this shift makes 2026 a year when investors should “expect the unexpected.” He joins host Greg Hall to explore how this new world order is reshaping markets — from the opportunities volatility can unlock in global fixed income to the evolving rebalancing between stocks and bonds. They even get into why the world is tilting toward mercantilism, though thankfully, not in a way that forces you to dust off your economics textbooks.
