ACI - 2nd National Forum on Commercial Loans

In the wake of the credit crunch, default rates are on the rise as troubled companies find it increasingly difficult to obtain new financing, and many industry experts expect credit concerns to continue for some time. Adding to the concern and uncertainty in the commercial lending market is the fact that second lien financing has exploded in recent years and is now for the first time being tested in a downturn.
