Reports $9.4 Billion NAV<\/h2>\n<p>Goldman Sachs Private Credit Corp. (GS Credit), a non-traded Business Development Company (BDC) managed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, a division of Goldman Sachs (<a href=\"\/stock\/GS\">GS<\/a>), disclosed a <strong>Net Asset Value (NAV) of approximately $9.40 billion<\/strong> for the period ending September 30, 2026. The figure reflects the fund&#39;s continued scale as one of the primary players in the private credit market, which has seen a <em>broader contraction in capital flows<\/em> throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>The fund&#39;s recent performance shows a stabilization in shareholder activity. In the third quarter of 2026, GS Credit received repurchase requests for approximately <strong>7.6 million shares<\/strong>, representing <strong>2.03% of shares outstanding<\/strong>. This is a notable decline from the <strong>4.99%<\/strong> repurchase rate seen in Q1 2026, which nearly hit the fund&#39;s <strong>5% quarterly cap<\/strong>. The fund also generated <strong>$400 million in gross inflows<\/strong> during the quarter, maintaining a healthy inflow-to-repurchase ratio of <strong>2.1x<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the stable NAV, the fund has faced industry-wide pressures including <em>geopolitical uncertainty and a reassessment of AI\u2019s impact<\/em> on private credit portfolios. The NAV per share was recently reported at <strong>$24.59<\/strong> as of July 31, 2026, while the investment portfolio&#39;s total value reached approximately <strong>$18.0 billion<\/strong> with leverage maintained at <strong>0.9 times<\/strong> average net assets.<\/p>\n<h2>Israel Braces for Election-Day Threats and Assassinations<\/h2>\n<p>In a separate development, Israeli security agencies are preparing for unprecedented threats ahead of the <strong>October 27 election<\/strong> for the 26th Knesset. Intelligence assessments suggest that <strong>Iran and its proxies<\/strong> may attempt to disrupt the democratic process through a range of &quot;extreme&quot; scenarios, including a <strong>missile barrage<\/strong> on the morning of the vote.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister <strong>Benjamin Netanyahu<\/strong> issued explicit warnings this week, stating that enemies of the state are seeking to influence the election results through terror attacks. Security officials have specifically identified the risk of <strong>assassinations<\/strong> targeting high-ranking officials. The <strong>Central Elections Committee Chairman, Justice Noam Sohlberg<\/strong>, has been placed under the highest security designation, <strong>threat level six<\/strong>, following reports of potential plots against election leadership.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli government is implementing contingency plans to ensure polling stations remain operational under fire. These measures include placing voting booths near <strong>bomb shelters<\/strong> and coordinating a joint command center involving the <strong>police, Shin Bet, and the IDF Home Front Command<\/strong>. Officials emphasized that the overriding directive is to hold the election as scheduled, even in the event of an active security emergency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key
