CREFC Signal: Our New Podcast

July 21, 2026

CREFC recently launched CREFC Signal, a podcast featuring timely conversations with leaders across the commercial real estate finance industry.

The inaugural episode, hosted by CREFC President & CEO Lisa Pendergast, traces CREFC’s evolution from its founding through decades of market cycles to its role today as the leading voice of the commercial real estate finance industry. Lisa is joined by past CREFC Chairs and industry leaders Leland F. Bunch, Annemarie DiCola, Chris Hoeffel, Rick Jones, Dan Olsen, and Patrick Sargent.

What's next: Stay tuned for the next episode which will examine recently released bank capital proposals from U.S. regulators, what they could mean for CRE lenders, investors, and the broader market, and CREFC’s plan of action in response.
