Chicago-based PGIM Real Estate Finance originated a record $18.1 billion in financing in 2018, led by record production in multifamily and core-plus lending. The commercial mortgage finance business of PGIM Inc. has as much as $18 billion available for financing in 2019, and will look to target growth in the agency business, industrial loans, international lending, and core-plus opportunities.
