Investors and fund managers from across the international private capital ecosystem are heading to Paris this September 8-10 for the IPEM Global 2026 conference, and the 9fin team will be on the ground throughout.
Set up some time to chat market trends with us; get in touch via events@9fin.com if you’ll be there!
And don’t miss our private credit editors taking to the stage for the Private Debt Summit on the final day.
Managing editor Sayed Kadiri will be unpacking the record-breaking growth of private credit CLOs in a panel at 2.40pm, followed by editor Synne Johnsson at 3.40pm leading a discussion on opportunistic credit, answering a critical question for LPs: how do you separate a true opportunistic credit manager from a distressed tourist?
