"Fitch Ratings yesterday said that delinquencies for loans in US commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS) rose by nearly half a percentage point in July to 3.04 per cent, the highest level since the rating agency began tracking this index of loans in 2001. The loans in the index represent about $480bn in CMBS, or two-thirds of the market.
At the current rate of increase of more than $2bn a month, delinquencies could top 5 per cent by the end of the year and surpass 6 per cent by the first quarter of 2010, Fitch said."
