2026 MBA's Secondary & Capital Markets Conference
It was a great please to attend the largest gathering of secondary and capital markets professionals in real estate finance!
This year’s event carried a noticeably different tone.
Attendance appeared lighter compared to prior years, and several familiar firms were absent, reflecting the continued uncertainty surrounding interest rates, inflation, and overall market direction. Portions of the securitization market remain on pause as institutions continue evaluating liquidity and long-term positioning.

Portions of the securitization market remain on pause as institutions continue evaluating liquidity and long-term positioning.
At the same time, there were clear signs of activity returning to the market.
Banks that had largely remained on the sidelines over the past few years are beginning to re-engage through loan purchases, trust collapses, and structured trade opportunities. DSCR and Non-QM products continue to generate strong interest among traders and investors, while Closed-End Seconds remain one of the fastest-growing segments as homeowners increasingly access existing equity without giving up historically low-rate first mortgages.
To summarize, despite ongoing market uncertainty, the conference made it clear that capital continues to move toward sectors with strong demand, liquidity, and long-term growth potential.
