KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to Kinbane 2025-RPL 1 DAC
21 Mar 2025 | Dublin
KBRA Europe (KBRA) assigns preliminary ratings to six classes of notes to be issued by Kinbane 2025-RPL 1 DAC (Kinbane 2025-1), a static RMBS securitisation collateralised by predominantly reperforming Irish mortgage loans. As of 30 November 2024, the underlying collateral is a €430.2 million portfolio consisting of seasoned first lien performing and reperforming mortgages. These mortgages are largely secured by owner-occupied properties (78.2%) and buy-to-let properties (16.4%) located in Ireland. Approximately 6.1% of the portfolio are secured by non-residential properties. The portfolio includes mortgages originated by twelve originators or current subsidiaries thereof, predominantly by Permanent TSB plc (59.9%) and GE Capital Woodchester Home Loans Ltd (19.7%).
Kinbane 2025-1 will be a refinancing of the portfolio securitised under Shamrock Residential 2022-2 DAC, which closed in October 2022.
The portfolio is comprised of four sub-portfolios which are serviced by Mars Capital Finance Ireland DAC and Pepper Finance Corporation (Ireland) DAC (together the Administrators). The Administrators have a meaningful number of years of experience servicing re-performing loans and implementing restructuring solutions to loans deep in arrears, secured by owner-occupied properties, in accordance with the Code of Conduct on Mortgage Arrears (CCMA) and the Mortgage Arrears Resolution Process (MARP) in Ireland.
The payment priority of the notes is sequential, with the notes benefiting from fully funded reserve funds at closing that provide both liquidity and credit support.
