IMF: Private credit won’t spark a 2008-style crisis, but risk remains

TL;DR Summary
IMF official Tobias Adrian says private credit is a key vulnerability but incentives today are better aligned and exposure to private debt is smaller for insurers and pension funds; he argues the private-credit boom isn’t expected to trigger a 2008-style financial crisis, though the IMF warns that a prolonged Middle East war could raise systemic risks and nonbanks could be forced to sell assets, so vigilance remains.
