KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to Lura Funding DAC

23 Mar 2026   |   Dublin

Contacts

KBRA Europe (KBRA) assigns preliminary ratings to eight classes of notes issued by Lura Funding DAC (Lura 2026), a static RMBS transaction backed by mortgage participations and mortgage transfer certificates issued by CaixaBank, S.A. (CaixaBank), representing the economic rights under mortgage loan agreements in Spain. On the closing date, the underlying collateral will be securitised via FT Neptuno, a Spanish securitisation fund (Fondo de Titulización or FT) managed by Beka Titulización S.G.F.T., S.A., with the Issuer holding the corresponding FT Neptuno unitranche Spanish bonds.

The €397.8 million underlying portfolio primarily comprises seasoned first-lien residential mortgage loans originated by CaixaBank and its legacy entities, including former savings banks and other institutions absorbed during sector consolidation in Spain. The loans are primarily secured by owner occupied (88.8%) and second or holiday homes or non-residential properties (11.2%) located in Spain.

CaixaBank will act as the lender of record and primary servicer of the mortgage loans, with Pepper Spanish Servicing, S.L.U. (Pepper) appointed as special servicer. The notes’ payment priority is strictly sequential. The notes also benefit from a fully funded reserve account that provides liquidity and credit support.
