Private Credit Is Booming; Banks Want Back In
Once satisfied with their dominant position in commercial lending from the middle market through the large cap, public syndicated market, banks have suffered significant erosion of market share at the hands of private credit (i.e., “direct lending”) competitors. With a wide range of firms leading the “golden age” of private credit, banks increasingly want back in and are employing a variety of strategies to get there. With the addressable U.S. market for private credit nearing $2.0 trillion (still a fraction of the public market), banks are ever more eager to participate in private credit’s one-stop lending solution that is one of the fastest growing businesses on Wall Street. Over the past several years, high-profile partnerships and other collaborations among banks and private credit firms have been announced at a brisk pace. Such activity is likely to continue.

Law Glossary
The field of telemarketing law covers U.S. legislation, federal agency regulations, and state statutes that determine how telemarketers can contact consumers and businesses by phone or text message. The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR) restrict telemarketing calls, automatic phone dialing, and prerecorded messages. TCPA also requires telemarketers to obtain consumers’ signed written consent before robocalling or robotexting them.
Law Glossary
TCPA is the abbreviation for the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991. The law restricts telemarketing certain phone calls, text messages, and facsimiles. It also places restrictions on the use of automatic dialing systems and artificial or prerecorded voice messages. Collections’ actions by phone are also regulated under the act. Consumers may file complaints with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) when TCPA is violated. Since TCPA law governs consumer rights, lawsuits may also be filed by consumers who suffer violations.
