Tom Cahill, the co-head of tactical investing at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, sees potential credit opportunities for investors as companies need to refinance their borrowings in a higher-interest rate environment. He highlights the normalization of interest rates and the impact on asset values, particularly in real estate.

Tom Cahill, the co-head of tactical investing at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, sees “some interesting credit opportunities” opening up for investors as companies need to refinance their borrowings in a higher-interest rate environment.

Of course, rising interest rates have triggered a major readjustment in asset values, particularly in markets such“Real estate has always been affected by interest rates,” Cahill says. “Also there has been a massive shift in the post-COVID world. Where do you really need people to go into the office five days a week? If that is a permanent shift, that asset could potentially be worth less.”

“And then I might move up or down the capital structure depending on the answers to all those questions.” So what sort of returns can investors now earn from investing in corporate credit? Cahill says that, in the North American market, “most senior debt securities – either a bond or a leveraged loan – will be in the zip code right now of between 8 and 10 per cent. That’s pretty much the norm”.

“One of the things that needs to be kept in mind is that you have both the public markets, and you have the private markets and I think there’s going to be greater divergence between those two markets over time,” he says.In public markets over the past decade, “the covenants, the protections to investors, have been competed away quite dramatically”.

“ the protective measures in private credit have historically always been more fulsome than the public markets and I think they’re going to become a lot more fulsome.”Cahill points out that it’s expensive for private companies to issue public securities, and the debt raising has to be of a certain size.
