Scope has completed the periodic review of Organa SPV S.r.l. - Italian NPL ABS
Scope Ratings GmbH (Scope) monitors and reviews its credit ratings on an ongoing basis and at least annually, or every six months in the case of sovereigns, sub-sovereigns and supranational organisations.
Scope performs periodic reviews to determine whether material changes and/or changes in macroeconomic or financial market conditions could have an impact on the credit ratings. Scope considers all available and relevant information when undertaking the monitoring review.
Periodic reviews are conducted by performing a peer comparison, benchmarking against the rating-change drivers, and/or reviewing the credit ratings’ performance over time, as deemed appropriate by the Lead Analyst or Analytical Team Head, in addition to an assessment of all aspects of the relevant methodologies, including key rating assumptions and models. Scope publicly announces the completion of each monitoring review on its website.
Scope completed the periodic review for Organa SPV S.r.l. on 17 December 2024. The credit rating remains as follow:
Class A (ISIN IT0005492951), EUR 970m original balance, EUR 431.8m current balance: BBBSF
Class B (ISIN IT0005492969), EUR 130m original balance, EUR 130m current balance: Not rated
Class J (ISIN IT0005492977), EUR 15m original balance, EUR 15m current balance: Not rated
The review was conducted considering available servicer reports, payment reports and investor reports up to October 2024.

Key rating factors
Rating factors assessed during the periodic review include realised profitability on closed positions, the timing of cumulative collections and the amount of recovery expenses, against Scope’s expectations. Additionally, the review addressed the risk of a slowdown of the Italian economy driven by persistent inflationary pressures combined with tighter monetary policy, and the potential deterioration of borrowers’ affordability conditions which could impair servicers’ performance on collections. The ratings also consider the issuers’ exposure to key counterparties, the legal and structural protection provided to the notes, the liquidity protection and the interest rate hedging agreements.
The transaction has significantly deleveraged since closing, reducing senior costs over time and creating a relevant cushion over the interest rate cap notional. The collateral has performed better that initially expected in terms of timing. However, proceeds from auction sales are below Scope’s original expectations. Actual recovery expenses are lower that original assumptions, which is positive for the transaction. The servicer’s cumulative collection ratio and NPV profitability ratio are, respectively, 149% and 135%.
Class A notes liquidity position remains stable, and the liquidity reserve is at target. Scope has also assessed the recent developments in Intrum AB's refinancing process with its creditors and does not foresee any imminent impact on Italian operations. Scope will continue to monitor developments closely, particularly following a final agreement with creditors.
The methodologies applicable for the reviewed rating (General Structured Finance Rating Methodology, 6 March 2024; Non-Performing Loan ABS Rating Methodology, 2 August 2024; Counterparty Risk Methodology, 10 July 2024) are available on https://scoperatings.com/governance-and-policies/rating-governance/methodologies.
