Key Quarter Updates
-- Portfolio
- 1 new deal completed (GBP45.2m of commitments) since 30 September 2022
- No defaults in the portfolio
- Continued migration of portfolio to senior lending
- During December, three French loans fully repaid, lowering the
WA LTV of the overall portfolio,and providing headroom to invest in
new deals at enhanced IRRs

-- Financing
- A mix of flexible, short-dated financing employed, alongside
term-matched structured financing on selected high-quality senior
loan deals
-- Opportunities
- The present crisis is set to continue through 2023, resulting
in further constraints in bank lending and alternative sources of
capital. The opportunity to provide senior loans at low risk
points, for higher margins, is increasingly compelling
- The core European CMBS markets are experiencing market price
declines due to increasing indiscriminate selling, presenting
opportunities in the market
- The Company expects to deploy its currently available cash
resources to its near term commitments and to build cash resources
towards a very compelling emerging opportunity set in both senior
loans and bonds
