Private credit – a public issue for insurance
ArticleRising insurer exposure to private credit is attracting increasing regulatory scrutiny, with concerns over transparency and systemic credit, liquidity and underwriting risks.

The new UK regulations that bring CRS 2.0 and CARF into force are live and most of the new obligations commence on 1 January 2026. Under the new UK regulations we now have an enhanced penalty regime and mandatory registration for UK financial institutions, combined with increasing interactions with HMRC around data quality and compliance frameworks.
In November, our expert panel – featuring speakers from our own team and HMRC – provided an overview of the new UK regulations and associated technical guidance, and discussed how best institutions should address the increased obligations. The panel also looked at similar changes taking effect overseas impacting financial institutions that operate outside of the UK.
