HOUSTON—CMBS private label pricing volume was $5.1 billion in December, bringing fourth-quarter total volume to $18.1 billion. When the dust settled on 2018, private label CMBS issuance came in at $76.4 billion, 11.4% below 2017, according to a recent report by Kroll Bond Rating Agency.
Despite recent volatility in the broader capital markets, there are a number of transactions slated for the first quarter. These include up to a dozen single-borrower deals, eight conduits and as many as four commercial real estate collateralized loan obligations. To the degree volatility continues, however, it could dampen issuance activity, says Kroll.
