Ares Commercial Real Estate's Comment on Competition and Industry Peers
The company operates in a competitive market for originating and acquiring investment opportunities. Its competitors include public and private REITs, specialty finance companies, savings and loan associations, banks, mortgage bankers, insurance companies, mutual funds, institutional investors, investment banking firms, financial institutions, governmental bodies, and fund managers. Many competitors are larger and possess greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources. Some have lower funding costs and access to sources unavailable to the company, such as the United States Government. Additionally, many competitors are not subject to REIT tax compliance constraints or exemptions under the 1940 Act. Certain competitors may also have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, enabling them to consider a broader range of loans and investments and offer more competitive pricing or terms. This competitive environment may result in decreasing yields on targeted assets.
