Matthew DiLiberto, CFO of SL Green Realty Corp., said in an April 2025 interview at Nareit's REITwise conference that the company has "pivoted to offense" and sees an "extraordinary amount of opportunity" in the current market environment. He stated that "dislocation and uncertainty breeds opportunity" and that the opportunity set for investing in real estate, joint ventures, or through the capital stack "continues to actually grow." DiLiberto noted that SL Green focuses on New York City office investments and uses a platform that can invest in "different ways" that others may not consider. DiLiberto also discussed the challenges of these transactions, including the need to find capital from international institutions, which he described as a "24/7 operation" requiring frequent international travel. He highlighted the complexity of accounting for debt investments, noting that depending on the structure, the company may generate income through interest income, reduced interest expense, or consolidate debt stacks onto its balance sheet. DiLiberto added that while SL Green has been doing this for 25 years, the current environment continues to present "new hurdles."
