Private credit has gone from a niche to one of the fastest-growing parts of investing, but most people still don’t fully understand how it works, why borrowers use it, or where the risks lie.
Balmain’s Head of Origination, Henry Holm, has sat down with Bryce and Alec from the Equity Mates podcast to unpack the private credit boom in Australia, why banks have stepped back, how non-bank lenders create value and what investors should look for before backing a manager.
Henry also shared his views on the sector’s evolution, comparisons with the US market and the importance of accurate risk assessment and portfolio management.
This episode offers some valuable insights, and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we did.

We are thrilled to extend an invitation to attend the Balmain Opportunity Trust Investor Meeting, where we will delve into our prospects for the year.
Balmain was in attendance at the St Catherine’s School “International Women’s Day Luncheon”, held on March 12, as the proud Platinum Sponsor of the event.
Our first Balmain town hall of the year, held at our new Sydney Head Office, was a great success.
