C-PACE in focus: Market dynamics & investment trends

Register to watch this fireside chat between Alexandra (Ali) Cooley, Nuveen Green Capital’s (NGC) CEO and CIO, and Kim Pilling, Managing Director, Investment Strategy for a forward-looking conversation about where the market stands today, what the signals in the data are telling us, and how NGC is navigating it all — including a live transaction walkthrough to bring it all to life.

Areas of discussion:

1. Rate environment & borrower strategy — Geopolitical uncertainty has impacted the "wait for rates to drop" approach, with fixed-rate financing now more compelling
2. Why C-PACE is well-positioned — Shifting sponsor preferences and bottom-up underwriting allow NGC to build the right capital stack for each deal
3. The debt maturity wall — C-PACE is emerging as a key tool for recapitalization and stabilization
4. Out-of-favor markets — Explore where opportunistic investors are now seeing better risk-adjusted return potential
5. Private credit noise vs. real asset lending — What the private credit headlines actually mean for real estate lenders and why investors are rotating toward hard asset-backed structures
