ABC Nightlife – Retails challenges and the future of private credit

I highlighted the potential difficulties anticipated for retailers in early 2024, post-Christmas, with the contributors being a significant decline in consumer spending and savings. I also discussed the evolution of private credit since the GFC, with the lending gap between banks and the SME sector, along with the advantages it presents for investors.
