2021 U.S. Loan Market Survey
Our respondents proved prescient in last year’s survey (conducted in February 2020) — a majority indicated that COVID-19 was either a significant event that markets were underappreciating or an event capable of triggering a recession. How right they were. In our latest survey, respondents recognize that the conditions for a U.S. recovery are in place, yet most don’t share the unabashed enthusiasm of financial markets regarding expectations for 2021, and many are concerned about inflation.
