• Commercial primary servicer rating at 'CPS2'; Outlook Positive;
• Commercial special servicer rating at 'CSS3+'; Outlook Positive.

"The assignment of the Positive Outlook reflects Fitch's 12–24 month view on the trajectory of Arbor's primary servicer rating, noting that as the new borrower website is fully realized and deployed and turnover within the primary servicing function continues to stabilize, positive rating movement is possible." – Fitch Ratings
