Capital Markets Receptive to REITs

In the latest episode of The REIT Report: NAREIT’s Weekly Podcast, Keven Lindemann of S&P Global Market Intelligence discussed REITs’ capital raising actives in 2016.

REITs raised 11 percent more capital through the end of 2016’s third quarter than they did in the year-earlier period.

“That’s certainly an indication that the companies in the [REIT] industry have healthy access to the capital markets,” Lindemann said.

BMO Analyst Says Capital Markets Receptive to REITs

Paul Adornato, managing director with BMO Capital Markets, joined REIT.com for a video interview during REITWeek 2014: NAREIT’s Investor Forum, held in New York.

Adornato reviewed the conditions that REITs have faced within the capital markets so far this year.

“The capital markets have been open for the REITs both on the equity side and on the debt side,” Adornato stated.  On the equity side, large follow-on offerings have occurred this year, he said, in addition to a number of initial public offerings (IPOs).
