Covenant Venture Capital Says Private Credit Yields Do Not Equal Spendable Income
  • Covenant Venture Capital's private credit analysis highlights that stated yields can differ materially from distributable cash because of fees, reserves and payment structures.
  • Payment-in-kind interest increases loan balances without generating current cash, raising the amount borrowers must ultimately repay.
  • Defaults can reduce or suspend distributions during restructuring; diversification can limit a single borrower's impact on portfolio income.
  • Periodic distributions do not guarantee access to principal, which may remain subject to multiyear commitments or redemption restrictions.
  • Underwriting and borrower repayment capacity matter more than headline coupons when assessing income reliability.
