In today’s banking landscape, commercial real estate (CRE) concentrations are frequently regarded with caution, often drawing concern from regulators, shareholders, and industry observers alike. Yet, according to Invictus Group CEO Adam Mustafa, this viewpoint may overlook key insights about banks with these specialized portfolios.
In a recent article published in American Banker, Adam explores why high CRE concentrations don’t necessarily signify elevated risk, especially for banks that have developed deep expertise within this sector. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, he argues that a nuanced understanding is needed to appreciate the advantages these banks often hold, including familiarity with local markets and lending niches that bolster their decision-making and risk management capabilities.
