# FSB Just Published 50 Pages on Private Credit. The Title: 'Vulnerabilities in Private Credit.' Worth Reading.

Published: 2026-06-01

The Financial Stability Board's 6 May 2026 report 'Vulnerabilities in Private Credit' - 50 pages. The body that coordinates the Fed, ECB, BoE and the world's other financial regulators putting on the record what they're collectively worried about - layered leverage, opaque valuations, PE-owned insurers, interconnections and instrument risks that aren't fully understood, with a potential for systemic risk to the financial system in stress scenarios. One-pager highlights: market sizing $1.5-2T narrow estimate (full market can't be sized); multiple layers of leverage stacked on top of each other; US insurance liabilities run by PE-backed insurers grown from $67B to $900B. FSB quote: 'interconnections between private credit funds and banks, insurers, and private equity firms are deepening, raising potential vulnerabilities... investors and other stakeholders may only have partial information and understanding of correlations and concentrations... the sector's complexity, leverage, and interconnectedness could amplify stress in adverse scenarios, posing broader risks to financial stability.' Continues the Tigzig private-credit dispatch series (4 prior pieces).
