Together prices £445m residential securitisation
Together has priced a £445m first charge-only residential mortgage-backed securitisation (RMBS) to fuel further lending.
The lender said that the RMBS transaction, which is Together Asset Backed Securitisation 2024 – 1ST2 PLC (TABS12), is supported by a portfolio of first charge owner-occupied and buy-to-let (BTL) loans secured against residential property in England, Scotland and Wales.
It also refinances assets that are part of its £1.25bn Charles Street facility and some of the group’s senior secured notes.
The RMBS facility complements the group’s existing seven public residential and four commercial mortgage-backed securities, six private securitisation facilities, senior secured notes and banking syndicate facility.
Lloyds acted as arrangers and joint lead managers, accompanied by Natixis and Santander as joint lead managers.
Mike McTighe, chair of Together, said: “We are delighted to announce the successful pricing of our third RMBS this year as we continue to support more residential owner-occupier and buy-to-let customers in realising their ambitions.”
