Description: BRSP Brightspire Capital September 11, 2025
BrightSpire Capital, Inc. (NYSE: BRSP) is a publicly traded real estate investment trust that focuses on commercial real-estate (CRE) credit across the United States and Norway. Its core activities include originating, acquiring, financing, and managing a diversified pool of debt instruments-first-mortgage loans, senior loans, mezzanine loans, and preferred equity-as well as net-leased property investments.
The firm reports its operations through three segments: (1) Senior and Mezzanine Loans & Preferred Equity, (2) Net Leased and Other Real Estate, and (3) Corporate and Other. By qualifying as a REIT, BrightSpire avoids federal corporate income tax provided it distributes at least 90 % of its taxable income to shareholders each year.
Originally incorporated in 2017 as Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc., the company rebranded to BrightSpire Capital in June 2021 and remains headquartered in New York, NY.
According to its most recent 10-K (2023), BrightSpire held approximately **$1.2 billion** in total assets, with a loan portfolio weighted 68 % toward senior secured loans and 22 % in mezzanine and preferred equity positions. The REIT reported a **distribution yield of roughly 10.5 %** and a **dividend payout ratio of 94 %**, indicating a strong commitment to the REIT-required distribution threshold.
Key macro-economic drivers for BrightSpire’s CRE credit business include the prevailing interest-rate environment, which influences loan spreads and refinancing risk, and the health of the office and industrial sectors-both of which affect borrower credit quality. Additionally, net-leased properties benefit from long-term triple-net leases that provide cash-flow stability even amid tenant-level vacancy fluctuations.
