Closing Remarks

Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, as we conclude what has been a very interesting afternoon, allow me to reflect on the depth and breadth of today's discussions. We began our summit with the exclusive launch of the Alternative Credit Council's 2025 research on the global private credit industry. And as a reminder, this report is now available to download on our website at ama.org. That's aima.

org. And then we heard the reactions to the report's findings from a number of key regulators whom AMA and the ACC met with earlier today to share our perspectives on the health of the private credit market that been at the regulatory summit this morning and this set the stage for a thoughtful and informed dialogue on the opportunities shaping the private credit ecosystem. From there, this afternoon unfolded into a series of highly productive and thoughtful sessions featuring some of the founders, the cornerstone founders and and CIOS from across the private credit industry. Uh together they explored priorities as they look towards 2026. Uh they examined how private credit is being mobilized to meet the next wave of digital, energy, and infrastructure needs.

And that was followed then by a discussion on the renewed momentum behind assetbacked or assetbased lending is a a vital engine of growth along with opportunities in the market that remain untapped. We heard from some of the most experienced senior leaders in private credit who shared their reflections on how they are navigating the mega trends impacting the private credit industry and and structural forces that are reshaping the market. And just moments ago, we closed with an illuminating discussion on how market participants are confronting new dynamics around liquidity, transparency, and pricing in private credit. What is abundantly clear and echoing the findings from our research that we published today here at Abu Dhabi Finance Week is that the private credit industry remains the most exciting class around and boyed with robust investor demand has considerable scope for growth in 2026 and beyond and growth for the right reasons. Leverage is modest and and fund structures are resilient.
