Низкий минимальный вход Прозрачность и регулирование (SEC 40 Act) Высокие дивидендные выплаты (90%+ income distribution) Недостатки: Торговля с премией/дисконтом к NAV Волатильность цены в периоды стресса Higher fees vs direct funds Leverage constraints по регулированию CLO Equity Преимущества: Highest yields в private credit spectrum Diversification — 150-200 loans в каждом CLO Non-recourse leverage (structural protection) Manager selection alpha Недостатки: Сложная структура и риски First-loss position — высокая чувствительность к defaults Limited secondary market Tax complexity (PFIC, ECI issues) Vintage Diversification Почему vintage важен Private credit доходности сильно зависят от момента entry: Spreads: Wider spreads = higher returns Documentation: Late cycle = weaker terms

concentration Manager quality > quantity: 4-6 top managers лучше 15 средних Understand liquidity: Unfunded commitments — реальные obligations Integration с FI: Private credit дополняет, не заменяет public Patience: Private credit rewards long-term investors Continuous monitoring: Credit качество меняется — активный oversight
