The real estate debt market in the Asia Pacific region has been steadily growing with new debt funds and other innovative stakeholders bridging the finance gap. As a result, many private equity firms, pension funds, insurance companies and others are increasing their debt exposure for APAC markets. Yet, with bank and government intervention into rates and pricing, increased competition and a looming global recession, we might ask ourselves: what consequences might such have on the APAC debt and credit markets?
