Istanbul-listed Yapi Kredi Bank obtains $ 1billion securitisation loan

Yapi Kredi Bank, a unit of Turkish conglomerate Koc Holding, has obtained a $1bn loan based on future flows under its diversified payment rights securitisation programme (DPR), the bank said on October 13.

The facility includes $714 million and €100 million tranches obtained from six different investors, together with treasury financing transactions, with maturities varying between five and eight years.

Additionally, a $175mn loan with a maturity of five years was obtained from two investors.

About $310mn of the proceeds will be dedicated to support sustainable assets. Of that sum, around $203mn was obtained from international finance corporations and sustainable funds.

In line with local peers, Yapi Kredi, the seventh largest bank in Turkiye with Turkish lira (TRY) 1.4 trillion ($51 billion) of total assets at end-June, has a B-/Stable (one notch below Turkiye’s sovereign rating and six notches below investment grade) from Fitch Ratings and a B3/Stable (six notches below investment grade in line with Turkiye’s sovereign rating) from Moody’s Investors Service.

In 2022, Yapi Kredi obtained a €127 million six-year securitisation loan.

In August, government-run Vakifbank (VAKBN) obtained a $500mn securitisation loan with a maturity of five years and a grace period of two years.
