1. Redemption Rate Outpaces Peers
GS Credit’s Q4 redemption rate stood at 3.5%, less than the more than 5% redemptions seen by peer private credit funds, underscoring lower investor withdrawals. This performance highlights relative resilience in Goldman’s private credit vehicle.
2. Robust Inflows Above Average
December inflows into GS Private Credit rose to 11% above its year-to-date average, reflecting sustained demand despite sectorwide concerns over technology loan risks. Strong capital commitments helped offset any redemption pressures.
3. AI Disruption Framework and Exposure
The arm’s enterprise software credit exposure was 15.5% at the end of Q3, toward the lower end among peers. Goldman passed on its first AI-risk deal in October 2023 and deployed an AI disruption assessment framework in early 2025 to guide future investment decisions.
