    Commercial Real Estate Updates Webinar

    There is still quite a bit of discomfort in the commercial real estate market. During this one-hour webinar we will look at the causes of what has become, in some locations, an all-out four alarm credit firestorm.

    We will start with a case study of one region and what took the real estate market down over a period of just a few years. From this case study, we will look at the types of credit structure that are reasonable and can be implemented now to protect your bank.

    We will also look at the various areas within the CRE markets, giving the attendees some insight into what to look for in commercial real estate lending in office, multi-family, commercial and mixed use for the near future.

    Learning Objectives:

    • Explain the key economic, credit, and market forces contributing to current instability in the commercial real estate (CRE) market.
    • Evaluate alternative credit structures and risk mitigation strategies that can be implemented today to protect bank portfolios.
    • Identify early warning indicators and underwriting considerations for CRE lending in the near-term market environment.
    • Apply practical insights from the case study and market analysis to improve CRE credit decision-making within your institution.
