In a move reflecting the growing trend of monetizing alternative investments, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC is exploring the sale of a private credit fund portfolio valued at approximately $2 billion. According to reports, the fund has appointed Evercore Inc. as an adviser for the potential divestment. This strategic move aims to capitalize on the current boom in the secondary market and effectively manage the fund's portfolio exposure.
The planned divestment occurs as the private credit sector experiences record growth, with global assets under management surpassing $1.7 trillion according to Preqin data. GIC's move aligns with broader institutional trends where major players, including peer sovereign funds like ADIA, are increasingly utilizing secondary markets to rebalance holdings and generate liquidity, per industry reports and market data from leading financial consultancies.
