NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA, a global full-service credit rating agency, is pleased to announce that Nitin Bhasin, CFA, Senior Managing Director and Global Head of Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS), has been elected to the Board of Governors of the Commercial Real Estate Finance Council (CREFC). CREFC is the leading trade association for the $5 trillion commercial real estate (CRE) finance industry and serves as a vital forum for market participants to engage in key policy, market, and industry developments. Since joining KBRA in 2011, Nitin has played a pivotal role in building and expanding the firm's CRE ratings platform.

At KBRA, Nitin leads the global CMBS ratings group, which covers a wide range of sectors, including private-label and agency CMBS, CRE collateralized loan obligations (CLO), single-family rental (SFR), small balance commercial (SBC), and re-REMICs. He also serves on KBRA's Credit Policy Committee, contributing to policy and criteria development across structured, corporate, and government finance. His leadership has helped KBRA earn its strong reputation for analytical rigor, transparent methodologies, and insightful research. 'Nitin has played a foundational role in shaping KBRA's commercial real estate ratings practice from the ground up,' said Eric Thompson, Global Head of Structured Finance Ratings at KBRA. 'His election to the CREFC board underscores his standing as a market leader who brings valuable perspectives to the industry. We are thrilled to see him take on this leadership role and bring his deep expertise and collaborative spirit to the broader industry.' Among his other pre-KBRA roles, Nitin advised on and executed CRE securitizations and net lease transactions at Wachovia Securities.
