Early amortisation triggers in the transaction are in compliance and replenishment covenants that protect against portfolio credit deterioration have not been breached since closing. The replenishment period ends on 16 October 2020, unless a trigger fails. Scope’s analysis is based on quarterly reporting up to 16 April 2018.

The level of ‘30+ days past due’ delinquencies is low, accounting for 0.14% of the outstanding portfolio, which is significantly below the 1.90% early amortisation trigger level. Additionally, the 0.09% gross loss ratio is well below the 0.75% trigger level.

The transaction continues to be supported by the credit quality of Raiffeisen Bank International AG and its three subsidiaries acting as servicers in the transaction, as well as The Bank of New York Mellon as account bank and calculation agent. Austria’s continued economic recovery will also benefit the transaction.
