Regulators urged to require transparency on private credit ratings

MarketWatch argues state regulators should mandate public disclosure of private credit ratings to close a gap in current oversight.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Fund Industry

Private credit has largely avoided public scrutiny, and MarketWatch says regulators should step in to increase transparency. The outlet argues that state regulators should require public disclosure of private credit ratings, citing a lack of visibility into how these products are assessed.

It notes the industry has not faced the same level of public information as more widely followed credit markets, leaving investors and other stakeholders with less comparable data to evaluate risk.
