Is this the start of a new 2008 or am I seeing ghosts?

It seems like people are short on cash and are trying to free up funds, but it has become a bit tricky. Funds and asset managers are restricting withdrawals.

For example:

* Apollo Private Credit Fund has limited investor withdrawals following a surge in requests [Link](https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/apollos-private-credit-fund-limits-investor-withdrawals-after-redemption-2026-03-23/)
* Ares Management is the latest to restrict withdrawals from private credit funds [link](https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/ares-management-stock-falls-limiting-125411667.html)
* Morgan Stanley’s “North Haven Income” fund has already limited withdrawals [link](https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/morgan-stanley-restricts-redemptions-private-credit-fund-after-withdrawals-surge-2026-03-11/)
* Cliffwater has also restricted withdrawals [link](https://www.ft.com/content/22454850-a7da-4089-af17-a223fa11f31f?syn-25a6b1a6=1)

Do you know of other Funds and asset managers that are restricting withdrawals?

Do you think it is happening all over again?
