GFA Exchange Surpasses 10,000 UK Businesses in Push to Close Private Credit Data Gap

Private credit is growing rapidly, but financial information on unlisted companies remains fragmented and inconsistent, making it difficult for financial institutions to assess borrower risk on a uniform basis. GFA Exchange uses digital tools to consolidate UK corporate credit data, aiming to improve transparency and capital allocation as the April 16, 2026 deadline approaches for EU member states to transpose AIFMD 2 into national law.

GFA Exchange said the number of UK businesses covered by its platform has surpassed 10,000, marking an important milestone in the expansion of its private credit data infrastructure. The platform digitizes corporate data and improves its quality, allowing banks, asset managers and private credit firms to compare business risks more effectively and prepare for AIFMD 2’s new liquidity-management and regulatory-reporting requirements.
