PGIM Private Credit Fund (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on March 21, 2022 and commenced operations on December 13, 2022. The Company currently invests and intends to continue investing primarily in privately placed floating rate leveraged (below investment grade) debt, including, but not limited to, senior secured, first lien, debt issuances in middle market companies primarily in the United States as well as up to 30% of its total assets in investments in other countries (primarily Canada, Europe, Australia and Latin America). The Company currently is majority-owned by Pruco Life Insurance Company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Prudential Insurance Company of America (“PICA”), an affiliate of the Company and PGIM Investments LLC (“PGIM Investments,” the “Manager” or the “Valuation Designee”). PICA is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“Prudential”). The Company elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “1940 Act”), effective May 5, 2023. The Company also elected to be treated, and intends to qualify each taxable year, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Company’s investment objective is to seek to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. Under normal circumstances, the Company intends to invest at least 80% of its total assets (net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes) in private credit investments. The Company considers private credit investments to include loans, bonds and other credit instruments that are issued in private offerings or issued by private companies. Under normal circumstances, it is expected that the Company will primarily be invested in privately originated and privately negotiated direct lending investments to U.S. middle market companies through (i) first lien senior secured loans (including club deals by a small group of investment firms), and (ii) with not more than 20% of total invested capital in senior secured second and third lien loans, and unsecured loans.
