Lending to commercial property (Jul.)

Net lending to the commercial property sector fell back in July, as mounting economic headwinds and stretched valuations weighed on investor sentiment. We expect lending will see further declines over the next year or so, as the cost-of-living crisis constrains rental growth and rising interest rates hit all-property capital values.
