Haydock Finance, a UK asset finance provider, has announced its first public asset-backed securitisation facility.
The facility will provide £350m of extra capacity and support the lender’s strategic focus on organic growth, the company said in a press release.
The deal, the first public securitisation of asset finance receivables in the UK since 2019, was structured and arranged jointly by BNP Paribas and Citi, Haydock said.
BNP, Citi and Lloyds acted as joint lead managers to market the deal to investors.
John Jenkins, CEO, said: “The closing of our first public securitisation facility is a testament to Haydock’s continued strong performance in the asset finance market.
“We have worked with our advisers over nearly 12 months to structure a deal, coordinate the rating of our portfolio and then position with investors.
