Channel’s CEO Walter Gontarek will be a speaker at next month’s UK-GCC Private Capital 2nd Annual Investment Summit, taking place on 4 June 2026 at the Langham Hotel in London.
The Summit brings together Private Capital Investors, LPs, GPs, Family Offices, Private Equity and Sovereign Wealth Funds from the UK, GCC, Europe and the US.
Walter will moderate a panel entitled “The rise of private credit/direct lending: sustaining returns as the market matures”.
The panel will explore how leading private credit platforms are sustaining attractive risk-adjusted returns by identifying market dislocations, executing with conviction, and dynamically rotating capital across portfolios.
The discussion will also examine what differentiates top-performing lenders in sourcing proprietary opportunities, structuring resilient deals, managing downside risk, and navigating an evolving credit cycle.
Walter is looking forward to connecting with fellow leaders in Private Capital at the event, and contributing to an important conversation.
