The Wall Street Journal writes that in Europe, insurers are influencing terms and making credit both easier and cheaper.
I can recall in the 90's do a great deal of post-foreclosure work for some of the larger insurance companies that had made numerous commercial loans earlier in the decade and in the 80's. If my recollection serves me correctly, at this time, before the CMBS market, insurance companies were a very significant source of finance for the commercial real estate market.
Is it possible that insurers are coming back to the market and to how influential will they be?
