PitchBook, the premier data provider for the private and public equity markets, announced the addition of LCD Credit News and Debt Deal Data into the PitchBook Platform. This is the second integration following the acquisition of LCD in June 2022; in May 2023, LCD research on leveraged loan, bond, CLO and private credit markets was added into the award-winning platform.
