ABOUT THE EPISODE

DDC Financial Group is one of Europe’s leading intelligence platforms for the distressed debt, non-performing loans and alternatives investing industries. They will be hosting their 11th annual DDC Investor Summit in Athens, Greece, November 14-15, 2024, which serves as a pivotal gathering for alternative investors and asset managers to discuss asset allocation, debt alternatives, distressed assets, NPLs, sustainable practices, and more.

I’ve been invited to speak at the conference about the Evolution of ESG in Investment Decision-Making, so I wanted to have a conversation with Lee Pollard, Head of Business Development and Martin Kunzmann, Director of Production and Content for DDC Financial Group.

Besides giving you a sneak peak into what you can expect at the summit in November, we explore the dynamic landscape of the European real estate market, with thriving investment opportunities in Greece and beyond.

Lee and Martin share their expert perspectives on private equity, distressed investing, and private credit across Europe.

We dissect the distinct differences between the US and European markets, especially in terms of banking accessibility and financial services, and delve into Europe’s evolving alternative credit landscape post-2008.

We close our conversation with a compelling analysis of the post-COVID landscape, shedding light on the surprising effects of government subsidies on non-performing loans in Greece, which has seen remarkable reforms.
