In April 2024, our Market Pulse webinar covered critical issues affecting businesses in the commercial market. Our panelists addressed pressing concerns such as the state of commercial real estate and its impact on commercial real estate investors, trends in small business lending, delinquency and defaults, discrepancies between labor market reports and small business experiences, and the rising incidence of fraud in the small business sector.
As these issues are still front-of-mind, we’re building on them in our upcoming May 16 webinar for an in-depth exploration of the current state of the financial services industry and implications for account management practices. We’ll shed light on critical issues such as capital requirements and the recent closure of the bank term lending program due to misuse; highlighting overall positive trends buoyed by declining interest rates; complexities of commercial real estate exposure; and the rise in default rates for newer loans, particularly early payment defaults. Additionally, our experts will share insights on audience challenges like:
Overall affordability
Inflation trends
Loans in terms of delinquency
Account management strategies
