European Credit Awards 2024

For more than a decade, Private Equity Wire has been recognising excellence in the fields of fundraising, portfolio performance, and service provision.

An allocator board, peer surveys, editorial expertise, and data analysis go into selecting our winners, helping us build one of the industry’s most influential awards programmes.

Each event is an opportunity for celebration, networking and, most importantly, recognition attended by an exclusive list of 100+ C-suite leaders from the GP, LP, and service provider communities.

With private credit’s astronomical rise to prominence as an asset class recently, it’s more important than ever to recognise those at the forefront of its evolution. Join us as we identify the leaders in a booming industry.
