The CMBS Crash: There is an Upside

The PUBLIC OPTION
The effective shutdown in the capital markets has led to a wave of IPOs over the past year and a half as companies increasingly look to the public markets as a means to raise capital. Both private and public commercial real estate players are putting out offerings for a variety of reasons, ranging from paying down debt to going after investment opportunities.

Even those in a distressed scenario are looking at the public markets as a way to alleviate their debt burden.
