Agusto & Co. hereby maintains the “SR3” rating assigned to Citihomes Finance Company Limited (‘Citihomes’ or ‘the Servicer’). The rating is supported by the Servicer’s adequate governance structure and experienced management team, satisfactory loan administration and collection processes and adequate asset administration process. However, the rating is constrained by exit of key personnel with inadequate succession planning, manual credit administration process and the largely untested recovery framework.

The Servicer provides Funds Management, Programme/Conduit Management, Asset Finance, Project Finance, Local and International Trade Finance, Debt Securitisation and Administration, Warehouse Receipt Finance, Loan Syndication and Financial Consultancy services.
