A Credit Cycle Like No Other

The first half of 2020 structurally transformed the world we live in, with repercussions that will likely take more than a few quarters to come into focus and years to fully comprehend. The global pandemic disrupted lives and livelihoods while rapidly injecting uncertainty into the economic outlook. COVID-19’s impact on credit markets is significant, multifaceted and ongoing. Please join us for this webcast in which Tim O’Hara, BlackRock’s Global Co-Head of Credit, will discuss the impact of COVID-19 and the opportunities BlackRock sees today across credit markets.

Topics include:
• Historically attractive value in traded credit as spreads remain wide historically with growing dispersion and defaults
• Persistent capital needs in direct lending as non-bank lending remains a primary source of funding for middle market companies
• Growing special situations and distressed opportunity driven by the increasing size of the below IG market, significant earnings challenges, and looming default wave
