Lessons/Sessions to be included:
• When AI disruption meets capital desperation in leveraged finance

AI is no longer just a technology equity story. It’s now a capital markets, debt financing, and infrastructure story—one that will reshape global economies on a scale not seen since the industrial revolution.

AI simultaneously affects demand for capital, sector winners/losers, public vs. private markets, and durability of corporate cash flows. In this webcast, we’ll examine these dynamics through the lens of leveraged finance (sub-investment grade) credit markets, specifically:

  • The capital overflow problem: Why IG markets alone can't absorb AI-driven financing demand, and what that means for lev fin
  • The disruption divide: Separating AI beneficiaries from companies facing structural obsolescence
  • The financing inflection: How AI-related high yield and leveraged financing is reshaping risk/return profiles
  • Where to look: Emerging opportunities and risks across sub-investment grade credit
