\u201cThe 2019 bonus season, in general, was healthy,\u201d<\/em> Anthony Saitta, managing director at FTI Consulting and leader of the company’s Executive Compensation and Corporate Governance Solutions practice, told Commercial Property Executive<\/em> in another episode of the podcast series with Senior Associate Editor Laura Calugar. Saitta said that operating fundamentals are still strong, although the hospitality and retail sectors have performed \u201ca little bit below target.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Bonuses<\/a>, even in the weaker performing sectors, have held up so far, but the uncertainties around how the new coronavirus is going to impact each sector of the commercial real estate industry are creating concerns. Saitta admits that it\u2019s hard to prepare for the unknown, but everyone should use their business judgement and be flexible.
