Real Estate Capital Forum: Bank deleveraging only at “the end of the beginning”

Banks’ phase of deleveraging non-core legacy debt is at "the end of the beginning", not at "the beginning of the end", agreed panellists at Real Estate Capital’s Europe forum 2015. Based on an estimated £40 trillion of assets European banks have to de-lever, Ahmed Hamdani, managing director at HIG International Advisors, believed the sale of distressed debt still has a lot further to go.
