SRT Market Update
Allied Irish Bank’s (AIB) SRT transaction is making headway. In its first half results back in August, AIB disclosed it was “progressing RWA management measures such as a significant risk transfer (SRT) transaction” with a deal expected to close 2H24.
Sources suggest it will reference a pool of corporate loans, with a small retained first loss and a 10% tranche detachment. There are currently around seven investors bidding on the deal, although the final number is expected to be smaller. The spread is projected to be in the 6-8% range.
