The Securitisation Guarantee transfers the credit risk associated with a specific tranche of a securitisation structure (senior/mezzanine debt) to GuarantCo (AA-/A1 internationally-rated entity). Such securitisation structures offer the opportunity to channel wider pools of non-bank capital into infrastructure by re-packaging a pool of receivables (usually infrastructure-related debt) into notes that are issued by a SPV. The nature of the securitisation, where securities are issued in different classes/tranches, allows institutional investors to invest in the structure in line with their risk appetite and the priority level in repayment and recovery. This secondary market liquidity frees up balance sheet capacity for banks to lend towards new sustainable infrastructure projects.
