  Navigating credit markets in 2026: “Don’t let the macro narrative overwhelm the micro” 16.09.2026 19мин

  As Treasury yields stay elevated and spreads remain historically tight, rates appear to be bleeding directly into credit — and investors are increasingly viewing credit through a rates lens.

They also explore how policy uncertainty may be better expressed in FX than duration, why AI/data-center financing is still in the early innings (and what that means for clearing prices and volatility) and how private credit is evolving after “SaaSPocalypse.”   To learn more about J.P.

Morgan Payments, explore why the checkout has evolved from an operational necessity into a strategic growth engine. They discuss how businesses can reduce friction, localize payment experiences, leverage data and AI, as well as balance innovation with security to drive conversion and scale across EMEA’s diverse markets.     This episode was recorded on May 26, 2026.   J.P. Morgan and third parties listed on this page have not entered into a legal partnership to provide the services described above.
