Remara calls for stronger Australian private credit standards after Bathla collapse

• Remara urged stronger underwriting, governance and transparency in Australian private credit rather than reduced non-bank lending following Bathla's collapse.
• A broad credit contraction could delay business investment, stall projects and leave viable borrowers struggling to refinance.
• Non-bank lenders complement banks by financing viable borrowers outside traditional lending parameters, but require conservative loan structures and active risk management.
• Investors should assess concentration, independent valuations and withdrawal terms; frequent redemptions do not make long-dated loans liquid.
• Credit investments are not cash substitutes; expected returns must adequately compensate for default risk, illiquidity and valuation uncertainty.
