Macquarie green lights 17 private credit funds after 10 months of reviews
A slew of private credit funds are now available to Macquarie’s superannuation members after its investment governance team undertook an industry-wide due diligence review.
Macquarie Investment Management Limited (MIML) has given its blessing to 17 private credit funds for its superannuation members, following a rollercoaster of axing and reinstating funds as a means to improve governance after the collapse of Shield Master Trust.
In recent weeks, MIML has re-opened funds from private credit operators La Trobe, Metrics Credit Partners, MA Financial, Qualitas, Realm Investment House, Alceon, Revolution Asset Management, Pengana, Gryphon Capital, Alexander Credit, and VanEck for its Macquarie Wrap and Macquarie Superannuation Plan.
Most of the funds were closed in September 2025 but are now open to applications, including all automated plans with a trustee limit of 10%. Since the closures, Macquarie has been speaking to the private credit managers to understand their respective investment and governance frameworks.
“We are continually reviewing the funds on our platform to ensure we continue to provide access to a diverse range of asset classes, investment options, and fund managers,” a Macquarie spokesperson told Capital Brief.
