What does economist and BRG Managing Director Dr. Albert Metz think will happen with today’s debt maturity wall? “The wall will be pushed out, as it always is, as firms refinance. How far out may reflect interest-rate expectations. If there is an expectation that rates will fall, firms may prefer to issue shorter-term debt so they can refinance in more favorable conditions. If there is an expectation that rates will remain high (or go higher), then smart firms will lock in longer-term debt, even at current rates.” Read more in our Q&A with Dr. Metz in the latest issue of ThinkSet magazine >>> https://lnkd.in/gcUxhnc2 #debt #interestrates #businessinsights #thinkset
