LendInvest completes £410m securitisation of buy-to-let loans
LendInvest has completed its largest securitisation of £410m of its UK prime buy-to-let mortgage loans.
The group’s fifth securitisation, in an oversubscribed residential mortgage backed security transaction, received an Aaa (sf) and AAA (sf) rating from global credit rating agencies Fitch and S&P Global Ratings, respectively.
The proceeds are to be used to power LendInvest’s buy-to-let and residential products. The senior tranche of the loans was priced at 1.17 per cent over the Sterling overnight index average (SONIA).
The deal increases the platform’s funds under management to £4.2bn.
