Debt Advisers Report

Publishing date: 1 October 2023

REC’s 2023 Debt Advisers report will be sent to all subscribers in print and digital form and all content to sit on the website and LinkedIn indefinitely.

Synopsis

Debt advisers are playing increasingly important roles in arranging and structuring loans. There are a lot of factors at play that are adding noise to the process, including higher interest rates and the prospect that this will continue, and senior lenders which are lowering the proceeds for first mortgages and potentially leaving a gap between a borrower’s equity and the senior mortgage. Putting together a capital stack in cases like this are more difficult than prior to the current period of turmoil because there are more chances for borrowers to use mezzanine debt, preferred equity or other creative financing structures that will allow a deal to get done but present more complications.

The report will feature editorial analysis and interviews with key players in the market.
