Summary
In a PERE Podcast episode, Kishore Moorjani, CEO of alternatives at CapitaLand Investment, argues that the opportunity for non-bank lenders in Asia-Pacific real estate debt is nearly 'unbounded' in scale. The episode, titled 'We're building a platform, not a collection of loans,' frames Asia as the next frontier for private credit managers seeking to deploy capital into real estate debt.
Moorjani's central point is that durable private credit franchises in the region depend on building repeatable origination, underwriting and servicing infrastructure rather than accumulating one-off loans. That platform-based approach is presented as the key to scaling across markets and asset types.
