The Mortgage Bankers Association’s Commercial Real Estate Finance/Multifamily Housing Convention & Expo returns to San Diego, California on February 19-22, 2017. This must-attend industry event draws more than 3,000 commercial and multifamily real estate finance professionals to San Diego for four days of networking, relationship building and deal making.
The conference will open with the Economic Outlook and Commercial Real Estate Market Forecast from Jamie Woodwell, Vice President, CRE Research, Mortgage Bankers Association and Michael Fratantoni, Chief Economist and Senior Vice President, Research & Industry Technology, Mortgage Bankers Association on Sunday, February 19. Panel Sessions on Construction Lending, High Yield Debt, CMBS Markets and Bank Lending will be featured on Monday, February 20.
The keynote speaker will be Mohamed A. El-Erian, Chief Economic Advisor, Allianz. Mohamed El-Erian will discuss our current economic path, underpinned by central bank policy experimentation, including the impact on the commercial real estate sector both domestically and globally. He points to signposts around us – rising inequality, sluggish growth, political tensions – and their correlation to volatile financial markets. He dissects continued pressures that warrant radically different monetary policy. And then, he offers his vision for a renewed global economy, prosperity and financial stability.
