Axonic believes that there are appealing opportunities in the CMBS market, particularly multifamily housing. In 2014, Axonic was chosen as the initial third-party purchaser of Freddie Mac Small Balance Loan (SBL) B-Pieces at the inception of the program and has been an active participant in K-Series primary and secondary markets since 2013. During this time, Axonic has invested over $1.5 billion in Freddie Mac multifamily B-Pieces across the SBL and K-Series Programs.
More broadly, commercial real estate loan maturities are set to rise in the coming years as loans originated post-Great Financial Crisis come due. The post-pandemic environment has seen significant cash flow disruption across asset classes and geographies alike, adding uncertainty and unique layers of risk to this coming maturity wave. One of the principal disruptions is the changing ways in which companies and individuals work – effectively where and how we work. Within the context of loan maturities and office properties, Axonic believes there will be structural opportunities that will provide compelling upside for those well-versed in the securitized structure and handling of distressed mortgage loans.

Most of our executive leadership team has been together since the inception of our firm. This provides our investors with a cohesive client experience and a unique business model that has withstood market ups and downs.
Discipline
An unwavering long-term view is critical to overcoming the inevitable highs and lows in market cycles. Remaining calm, relying on data and resisting the urge to react from emotion is what makes Axonic exceptional.

Combined, our firm has hundreds of years of experience in structured credit. No one is a generalist; we are all focused on our specific practice sectors that gives our team the potential of surpassing the broader markets.
