In the Russian Federation, the owners of thousands of shopping centers may find themselves on the verge of bankruptcy due to an increase in the key rate of the Central Bank to 21%. This is reported by Kommersant. According to the vice president of the Russian Union of Shopping Centers, Pavel Lyulin, after the rate increase to 21%, banks began to send messages to clients about a significant increase in the value of already issued loans. The situation is complicated by the mass departure of tenants and a significant increase in taxes, which creates serious financial risks for the owners of about a thousand shopping centers.Advertisement: According to the Russian Sberbank, it has 1.7 trillion rubles of commercial real estate as collateral, half of which is retail space. objects Most of these objects have loans with a floating rate, which increases the financial pressure on their owners.
