what happened

Investment firms Carlyle, KKR and Oaktree are preparing to buy loans that have fallen in price, Bloomberg News reported. Reuters relayed the report, noting that it has not verified the story and does not vouch for its accuracy.

The available text gives no details on loan types, deal sizes or timing, so conclusions about the scale of the purchases would be premature.

why it matters

If large private funds start buying discounted debt, that could support prices of such debt and shape investor appetite for the high-yield loan market.
