Fitch Affirms Light Trust No.5R; Outlook Stable
OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings of the Class A notes of Light Trust No.5R. The transaction is a securitisation of first-ranking Australian residential mortgages originated by Australian Central Credit Union Ltd (ACCU), trading as People's Choice Credit Union (PCCU). The rating action is as follows:
AUD419.8m Class A notes affirmed at 'AAAsf'; Outlook Stable.
KEY RATING DRIVERS
The affirmation reflects Fitch's view that available credit enhancement is sufficient to support the notes' current rating, our expectations of Australia's economic conditions, and the credit quality and performance of the loans in the collateral pool have remained in line with expectations. The transaction remains within its substitution period with principal collections used to purchase additional receivables.
The transaction has recorded low levels of arrears and no losses to date. At 30 September 2015, 30+ days arrears were at 0.4%, below the latest Dinkum RMBS Index level of 1.12% at 2Q15. Fitch's calculated weighted average (WA) loan/value ratio (LVR) is 72.6% and the indexed LVR is 70.6%.
The pool benefits from lenders' mortgage insurance (LMI), with policies provided by Genworth Financial Mortgages Insurance Pty Limited (33%, Insurer Financial Strength Rating: A+/Stable) and QBE Lenders' Mortgage Insurance Limited (9.9%, Insurer Financial Strength Rating: AA-/Stable).
RATING SENSITIVITIES
Fitch's 'AAAsf' breakeven stressed default rate is 24.7%. The Class A notes can withstand an additional 20.1% in defaults at Fitch's 'AAAsf' loss severity.
DUE DILIGENCE USAGE
No third party due diligence was provided or reviewed in relation to this rating action.
DATA ADEQUACY
Fitch conducted a file review of 10 sample loan files focusing on the underwriting procedures conducted by PCCU compared to its credit policy at the time of underwriting. Fitch has checked the consistency and plausibility of the information and no material discrepancies were noted that would impact Fitch's rating analysis.
Light Trust No.5R features a 10-year substitution period, ending in April 2025. Fitch is comfortable with the long revolving period due to the presence of various eligibility criteria and pool parameters, and the portfolio's performance to date.
