Private credit is getting a lot of attention right now, but not all private credit investments behave the same.

In this session, Whitney Elkins-Hutten, director of investor education at PassiveInvesting.com, will break down the key differences across private credit, including real estate-backed lending, structured notes, and corporate credit. She will explain where risk shows up in each, why chasing yield can backfire, and how structure impacts income, liquidity, and capital preservation. You’ll learn how to evaluate private credit opportunities, how to distinguish between stable income strategies and higher-risk lending, and how to decide if and where private credit fits within your overall portfolio allocation.
