Extended read
The inclusion of private credit in 401(k) plans represents a significant structural shift in the retirement industry. For alternative asset managers, this provides a stable, long-term source of AUM. For participants, it offers diversification away from public markets, albeit with higher fees and less liquidity. The move is expected to drive significant fee income for firms like Blackstone and Apollo, who have been aggressively building out their 'retail-wealth' platforms.
