| Complimentary Live, Interactive CE Virtual Forums September 20, 21 and 27 A unique event designed exclusively for CRE executives and investors paneled by leading authorities and other subject matter experts The Fed’s attempts to rein in inflation by raising rates is shaking up investment strategies. Many investors are looking to commercial real estate as a potential hedge, given how it has performed historically during previous periods of high inflation and in rising rate environments. But that doesn’t mean it's smooth sailing ahead. Rising rates mean higher debt costs and, in turn, that is leading to repricing of commercial real estate assets. This forum will provide an update on how to approach commercial real estate investment given the shifting macroeconomic conditions — and how they are affecting capital raising and capital deployment strategies. | |
