Mitchell, a partner in Nutter’s Real Estate and Finance Department and co-chair of the firm's Commercial Finance practice group, will present at the Real Estate Finance Association’s (REFA) Fundamentals of Real Estate program “HVCRE-Scalpel or Blunt Instrument?” on June 23.

The rule is designed to require banks to hold more capital for A&D loans whose borrowers have less than 15 percent of the as completed value of their projects invested as cash before the bank funds its loan.
