KBRA Releases Monthly CMBS Trend Watch

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases the January 2024 issue of CMBS Trend Watch.

With spreads continuing to tighten in January, the new issuance market started off on a strong note in 2024. The positive start could carry over into February, as based on current visibility, up to 10 deals could launch including five single-borrower (SB), two conduit, two commercial real estate (CRE) collateralized loan obligation (CLO), and one Freddie Mac K-Series (Agency) deal. Despite the Federal Reserve indicating that rate cuts were not imminent at its most recent meeting, the abandonment of guidance that left hikes on the table, while expected, brings more certainty to the market. Moreover, this is a net positive for 2024 issuance volume, which is up 380.9% on a year-over-year basis from last January’s anemic levels.

In January, KBRA published pre-sales for seven deals ($6.6 billion) including four conduits ($3 billion), two SB ($2.7 billion), and one re-remic (RR) ($0.9 billion). January’s surveillance activity included a review of the ratings of 345 securities issued in connection with 38 transactions. Of the 345 ratings, 328 were affirmed, 16 were downgraded, and one was upgraded. In addition, six ratings were placed on Watch Downgrade.

This month’s edition also highlights recent KBRA research publications, which cover various topical issues.
