Summary

There are reasons to be optimistic about Fidelity Private Credit’s long-term prospects, chief among them the strategy’s rigorous credit underwriting standards and the platform’s ability to grow at a responsible pace. There are also factors that call for patience, though, as the firm’s direct lending unit has only just passed its five-year mark. Taking that into consideration, the strategy earns Average People and Process ratings in its inaugural round of Morningstar analyst coverage.
