ICE launches Private Credit Intelligence with Apollo to bring transparency to $40T market

Intercontinental Exchange has launched ICE Private Credit Intelligence, a data infrastructure platform aimed at bringing greater transparency to the $40 trillion private credit market. Apollo is supporting the launch as anchor partner, with additional originators and asset managers expected to join in coming months. The platform provides secure, permissioned data sharing using standardised reference data, enabling deal-level information flow between authorised counterparties. It leverages ICE's technology to ingest deal documents, extract key terms and distribute consistent information at scale. Future capabilities will include performance analytics and pricing insights. Apollo, which facilitated nearly $10 billion in secondary trading volume last year, is transitioning to more frequent pricing reporting across its credit business as private credit increasingly serves as a core fixed income allocation replacement.
