    What the headlines are missing on private credit

    Asset-backed credit is a well-established part of Australia’s lending market, but it operates quite differently from corporate and real estate private credit that has attracted much of the recent attention. In this episode of In The Know, Simon Brinsmead from Barrenjoey is joined by Eric Williamson, Head of Private Credit Investments and Eva Zileli, Senior Fund Manager, Credit, from Barrenjoey Private Capital. They explain how asset-backed lending works, the residential mortgages and other financial assets underpinning these investments, and the layers of protection built into securitisation structures. They also examine Australia’s non-bank lending sector, how they assess credit quality and risk, and the role asset-backed credit can play within a diversified portfolio. Barrenjoey (including Barrenjoey Private Capital) is part of Magellan Financial Group Limited (ASX: MFG).

    Cellnex: pricing power, moats and the next phase of shareholder returns

    Cellnex owns and operates around 112,000 telecom towers across ten European markets, generating recurring, contracted revenue from mobile operators who have few practical alternatives once a site is built.   This episode of In The Know was recorded by GLIO (the Global Listed Infrastructure Organisation), with Cellnex CEO Marco Patuano and Roy Harrison, Investment Analyst in the Magellan Global Listed Infrastructure team. Together they unpack the tower business model and its economic moat, and why Marco believes the market may be mispricing Cellnex's risks. They also cover the drivers of organic growth, the company's shift from debt-fuelled M&A to balance sheet repair and shareholder returns and Marco's view on the investment case as free cash flow builds.   Magellan Investment Partners would like to thank GLIO and Cellnex for the opportunity to bring this conversation to our audience.

They discuss the future of NATO, the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, the direction of US politics under President Trump, and why investors may need to rethink some of the assumptions that have underpinned markets for decades.

    Finding the edge: data, AI and active investing

    How are data and AI reshaping the future of active investing? Markets are moving faster than ever. AI is changing how investment managers research, think and ultimately make decisions — and the edge lies in knowing how to use it. In this episode of In The Know, Magellan’s Head of Distribution, Asia Pacific, Mark Burgess is joined by Rob Franklin, Research Manager at Vinva Investment Management, to unpack the evolution of AI in investment research, the growing importance of alternative data and why human judgement remains critical in navigating changing market regimes. Rob also shares insights into how Vinva combines disciplined, systematic processes with technology-driven innovation to build diversified portfolios in an increasingly competitive investment landscape.

    Infrastructure, energy and the affordability challenge

    Affordability pressures, alongside rapid investment, are reshaping the US economic story in 2026 — and the impact is being felt far beyond headline growth. In this episode of In The Know, Rebecca Hiscock-Croft, Investment Director for the Magellan Global Listed Infrastructure team, chats with Brett Loper, Executive Vice President for Policy at the Peter G. Peterson Foundation and Executive Director of the Peterson Solutions Fund, about what’s really driving the conversation on the ground — from the rising cost of housing and energy to the growing strain on household budgets. They explore how surging demand from AI and data centres is adding new demands on power systems and infrastructure and why utilities and energy are becoming an increasingly important, if less visible part of the conversation. With infrastructure and affordability now tightly linked, this discussion explores the forces set to define the next phase of the US economy.

    AI disruption, real assets and opportunity in Australian equities

    How do you invest when markets feel driven by noise, narratives and sudden shocks? In this episode, Emma Fisher, Deputy Head of Australian Equities at Airlie Funds Management and Joe Wright, Deputy Portfolio Manager, discuss how they navigate volatility by staying anchored to process, fundamentals and valuation. They unpack the resurgence of “real assets”, the sharp sell-off in software and classifieds and why AI disruption fears may be creating opportunities in quality businesses. Emma and Joe also explore gold, commodities and portfolio positioning, discussing that while narratives can drive short-term moves, long-term returns are still shaped by earnings, balance sheets and disciplined stock selection.
