Moody’s Analytics has integrated commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) loan-level data across its commercial real estate (CRE) solutions. This is the latest enhancement to our solutions for evaluating, monitoring, and benchmarking CRE assets, building upon the addition of information on a building tenant’s creditworthiness to the Moody’s Analytics REIS™ platform in 2020.

A consistent dataset of approximately 170,000 properties and 130,000 loans is now available across the Moody’s Analytics REIS platform, CMM™ solution, and the Moody’s Analytics CMBS Data Feed.

“Our customers need to discern trends faster to identify risks and opportunities. Being able to view the performance of loans and securities, as well as the underlying assets, all in one place helps them do that,” said David Salz, Director of CMBS Solutions at Moody’s Analytics. “We continuously evolve our CRE solutions to bring customers the best of our extensive experience in collecting, managing, and analyzing data across the structured finance and commercial real estate markets.”

Moody’s Analytics CRE solutions harness expansive data and analytical expertise from across the Moody’s organization to provide lenders, risk analysts, and investors an integrated view of new and traditional metrics. Monthly reports on each loan in a securitization pool make the CMBS market a rich source of credit-relevant information.

The proprietary Moody’s Analytics CMBS dataset gives investors visibility into long-term trends by covering more than 12 years of performance history of active CMBS deals covering $828 billion of outstanding debt. The CMBS dataset also provides access to 20 years of historical data on the CMBS universe in the US. Customers of the CMBS Data Feed can see submarket data on effective and actual rents, vacancy rates by CMBS loan, as well as forecasts of rents and vacancies for US commercial properties from the Moody’s Analytics CRE economics team.

All customers of the Moody’s Analytics REIS platform can now find, filter, and analyze relevant financial metrics and tenant lease data from all outstanding CMBS loans in our database. Those using our CMM solution, meanwhile, can now look at both CMBS and property market data as they assess default and recovery for CRE mortgages.

“Through this integration, we are bringing customers a more holistic view of the risk profile of their real estate portfolios, across the investment cycle,” added Mr Salz.
