For many reasons, distressed commercial real estate appears to be a part of the foreseeable corporate landscape. As businesses wrestle with back-to-the-office issues and retail bankruptcies, the market is bracing for an influx of tenants and landlords struggling with increased interest rates and property owners addressing debt maturities with an often-shrinking tenant base.

With a sluggish return to office, a looming maturity wall and a challenging refinancing environment, distress in commercial real estate looks to be here to stay for the foreseeable future. This panel will help attendees navigate this complex environment while offering diverse perspectives representing landlords, debtors, committees and lenders, as well as from the bench.
