Japanese Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama stated that private credit does not pose a major domestic issue at present but acknowledged potential risks in the $2 trillion global private credit industry, which may be discussed at the upcoming G7 finance meeting.

Japan's Finance Minister stated private credit poses no major domestic risk currently. The $2 trillion global private credit industry's risks may be discussed at the upcoming G7 finance meeting, though Japan's exposure is not large. Concerns over transparency and AI disruption are impacting US private credit funds, while Japan's market is smaller due to easy bank lending access.

Japan's financial regulator has been conducting checks on private credit exposure at major financial institutions, a source told Reuters on Thursday, as concerns mount over strains in the $2 trillion global private credit industry.
