#101 - The Next Downturn May Be on the Horizon - How are you Preparing For it?
  • Considering where we are in the cycle, as a Sponsor, how are you looking at new opportunities in terms of risk profile, asset class and capital structure? How are you positioning your balance sheet-liquidity, leverage, debt maturities, etc.? Are you a net seller? Are you taking a longer view, anticipating a mild correction?
  • As active investors, how are you approaching 2018 and 2019, anticipating some degree of correction in the market. What returns are you targeting? What asset classes are in favor/disfavor? Are you staying within primary markets or open to secondary/tertiary markets? Are you changing your typical structure in response to being late in the cycle?
  • How are regulated lenders reacting to the elongated cycle we are in? What are Banks doing structurally to reduce risk? Which asset classes are you concerned about? What is your strategy to mitigate exposure to the down cycle? How is the regulatory environment in regards to CRE exposure and lending?
  • As a private lender, are you seeing more opportunities as the Banks pull back? Are you adjusting your underwriting in anticipation of a downturn? Do you view this as an opportunity to take more market share? Are there particular asset classes or geographies that you favor?
