Commercial Property Finance

Commercial property lending is picking up from a low level: loan commitments by vdp member institutions rose by 12.9% to €56 billion in 2025 as a whole. This growth was seen in both domestic and foreign markets and was similar in both. However, new business remains subdued due to structural changes, the subdued economic climate and geopolitical uncertainties. With an economic recovery and a possible easing of geopolitical pressures, demand for loans could gain momentum again.
