Private Credit Intel turns messy regulatory filings into one clear exposure map: every fund, every borrower, every dollar, and every overlap across funds that are supposedly separate.
Sample map — funds on the left, borrowers shared across two or more funds highlighted at the center. Each node traces to a line in a real filing.
The current dataset maps five private credit funds, including non-traded BDCs and interval funds, with more added as new filings are processed.
Allocator portfolios may span several managers, but underneath, the same companies can appear again and again. In a calm market, the portfolios look diversified. When one or more of those companies’ stress, the exposure can show up in multiple funds at once
Built for institutional allocators, credit teams, and risk teams that need a clear view of borrower exposure across multiple private credit funds.
Access is for institutional and sophisticated investors.
