Sub-sections
  • The Renewable Energy Infrastructure Group (Trig), a UK investment trust that invests in assets generating electricity from renewable sources, has launched a non-pre-emptive capital raising on the London Stock Exchange for acquisition funding. However, the size will depend on a shareholder vote in December.
  • Greencoat UK Wind, the renewable infrastructure fund, is buying a 38% stake in an offshore wind farm for £500m using new and existing debt. But analysts warn that the fund could push through its debt ratio limit in the coming years.
  • The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) issued its final capital rule on Wednesday, mandating more capital for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to ensure they exit conservatorship on a ‘sound capital footing’. The agency’s progress towards privatisation could be limited by the likelihood that President-elect Joe Biden will switch out FHFA boss Mark Calabria for a Democratic pick.
  • SSA
    The International Fund for Agricultural Development received its second credit rating on Thursday, marking another step towards its debut in capital markets. CFO Alvaro Lario spoke to GlobalCapital about its plans.
  • SRI
    Boris Johnson, UK prime minister, announced on Tuesday night a 10 point plan for the environment, including phasing out petrol cars by 2030. But policy specialists are disappointed that the plan lacks financing commitments and especially that there is no announcement of a national investment bank.
  • ABS
    Sunnova is entering the ABS market with a deal backed by residential consumer solar loans, shortly after Loanpal made its return. With yields still at all time lows, solar securitizations have appealed to investors and traders for their high returns, and a transaction structure that looks more like a mortgage product than an esoteric ABS.
