US regulators, in unusual move, raise concerns about new private credit ETF
February 28, 2025-The U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission sounded the alarm about aspects of the first broad private credit market exchange-traded fund, in a letter posted on its website on Thursday, hours after the ETF began trading.
In what analysts and other asset management firms described as a highly unusual move, Brent Fields, associate director of the SEC's division of investment management, asked State Street Global Advisors to address what it described as "significant outstanding issues" involving the SPDR SSGA Apollo IG Public & Private Credit ETF .
Fields declined to comment further. A spokesperson for the SEC declined to comment on questions involving any specific issuer.
State Street said it will be responding to the SEC's letter but had no further comment at present.

Thursday marked an almost moon-landing level event on Wall Street. An exchange traded fund partially including illiquid private credit, managed by State Street and affiliated with Apollo Global Management, started trading with an unprecedented level of flexibility for investors.
By the evening, the US Securities and Exchange Commission had written a letter casting doubt on how the plumbing worked. It even wondered if the ETF could fairly utilise the branding of Apollo, where, by coincidence, former SEC chair Jay Clayton happens to be on the board.
