Top 10 Most Allocated Private Credit Funds of 2023

In 2023, Dakota tracked approximately 270 investments in private credit strategies totaling nearly $30 billion in allocations.

Through our Dakota Marketplace database, we have tracked public investments and other activity from public pension funds, endowments, foundations, and other investment allocators. 

Private credit activity has experienced significant growth, driven by investors seeking higher yields in a low interest rate environment. The market saw increased diversification, with more opportunities in direct lending, distressed debt, and real estate. 

In this article, we are covering the top 10 most allocated private credit funds by funding amount that we tracked for the year. See more information and schedule a demo of Dakota Marketplace here.
