Commercial Assets Feel Pinch of Climbing Interest Rates and Inflation
A whammy: Inflation revs up the acceleration engine and, as a response, the Fed makes the biggest single hike in interest rates — 75 basis points — in four decades, with the promise of more to come.

"Lenders that benchmark to credit markets, including CMBS and life insurance companies, may begin to push their spreads and their quoted rates higher. Banks and other balance sheet lenders may hold the line a bit longer, especially for borrowers they have a strong relationship with."
