flag Bankruptcies at First Brands and Tricolor highlight growing risks in the $1 trillion private credit market, raising systemic concerns despite stable credit quality.

flag The bankruptcies of First Brands and Tricolor have spotlighted risks in the expanding private credit market, where nonbank lenders, backed by bank funding, now hold over $1 trillion in loans. flag While banks benefit from lower capital needs, they have limited visibility into ultimate borrowers, raising systemic concerns. flag The Federal Reserve warned of potential rapid asset quality decline at nonbank lenders, and fraud allegations have intensified scrutiny. flag JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon cautioned that one bad loan may signal broader issues, but recent strong earnings from regional banks suggest credit quality remains generally sound. flag Analysts say risks could grow during an economic downturn, particularly with rising job losses, though a full crisis is not currently expected.
