Summary
New York credit forum remarks from Barclays’ Na Wei urged software borrowers to “prepare for war, but hope for peace” as refinancing pressure builds.
Tremors in the software debt market remain top of mind for leveraged-finance executives, raising concern that upcoming debt rollovers could become more contested and costly.
Wei, Barclays’ global head of leveraged finance, said the bank is already advising borrowers to brace for that maturity wall rather than expect an easy refinancing window.
The warning points to broader stress in software credit, where companies facing near-term maturities may confront tougher lender terms if market volatility persists.
