EnVent Capital Markets collaborated with Oppenheimer & Co to organise the workshop 'European corporate credit markets: trends & opportunities in the middle market space', which was held a few days ago. "It was a pleasure being with Max Lami, CEO at Oppenheimer Europe, to working at this event," commented Franco Gaudenti Managing Partner of EnVent Group. "The middle market space in European #corporate credit markets is a great opportunity strictly linked to the ongoing transformation in the world of credit. Similarly to the #equity markets, the private and public credit markets are so far interconnected than ever expanding the opportunities both for issuers and investors. Sandro Patti, CIO and founder of Valiant Asset Management and Marcello Bragliani, partner at Latham & Watkins shared with the investing community very interesting views and analysis.” #EnVentCapitalMarkets #EnVent #EnVentItaliaSim #CapitalMarkets #PMI #SmallCaps #EGM #BorsaItaliana #MidSmallMarket #Oppenheimer

Enjoyed attending the Annual Australia Investors Forum last week, great to catch up with a range of investors from Superannuation, Wealth and Family Offices. As expected plenty of discussion on hot topics such as the impact of AI, looking out for ‘AI washing’ and some great insight into the investment themes front of mind in family office investment teams and how ESG is playing out in the wealth sector. Once again also plenty of discussion around private debt and whether strong supply and demand will continue, plenty of believers in the room who think it will… #privatedebt #investmentstrategy #investmenttrends #esginvesting
