This summary offers a concise look at the 2025 annual report for BANK 2020-BNK28, providing key insights for investors.

Business Overview

BANK 2020-BNK28 is not a typical operating company; it's a Commercial Mortgage-Backed Security (CMBS) trust. This trust holds a pool of commercial mortgage loans, and investors buy certificates that represent a share in the income these loans generate. Formed around 2020, the trust's initial loan pool included significant loans secured by commercial properties, such as the 9th & Thomas Mortgage Loan (approximately 9.7% of the total), ExchangeRight Net Leased Portfolio #39 Mortgage Loan (approximately 5.2%), Chasewood Technology Park Mortgage Loan (approximately 4.2%), and the 711 Fifth Avenue Mortgage Loan (approximately 8.3%). The trust's performance depends directly on how well borrowers repay their commercial mortgage loans. The trust operated smoothly throughout 2025, with all service providers confirming their compliance with regulatory standards.

Management Discussion

Throughout 2025, BANK 2020-BNK28's service providers focused on operational stability and regulatory compliance. A key operational highlight was the smooth transition of servicing responsibilities. Wells Fargo, the original master and primary servicer, confirmed compliance for its final period (January 1 to February 28, 2025). Trimont LLC then successfully took over these roles from March 1 to December 31, 2025, also confirming full compliance. KPMG independently reviewed this transition. Additionally, Computershare, which acquired Wells Fargo's Corporate Trust Services in 2021, served as trustee, securities administrator, and paying agent throughout 2025, confirming full compliance, which PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP independently verified. Other key service providers — including National Cooperative Bank, N.A. (NCB) as a servicer, KeyBank National Association as the special servicer, Park Bridge Lender Services LLC (PBLS) as the operating advisor, CoreLogic Solutions, LLC as the tax service provider, and Wells Fargo as the document custodian — all confirmed their roles and compliance for the full fiscal year, with independent auditor reviews. This widespread, independently verified compliance across all administrative functions highlights strong operational governance.

Future Outlook

The certificates' future performance and value depend primarily on the continued performance of the underlying commercial mortgage loans. The outlook for investors is heavily influenced by commercial real estate market trends, especially for the property types and geographies within the loan pool. Interest rate movements, economic growth, tenant demand, and property valuations will continue to influence future loan performance and investor returns.
