The securities were issued in five tranches. The highest-scoring classes, rated Aa2 by Moody’s, constituted 63% of the offer. A2-rated securities accounted for 13%, Ba2-rated ones for 9% and unrated ones for 14%.

The European Investment Bank (EIB) group participated both as an investor, with the Bank itself underwriting the entirety of the second-highest-rated tranche, and as a guarantor, through the European Investment Fund.

Alba Leasing said that 24 institutional investors, 20 of which were foreign, participated in the issue. Orders placed for the senior tranche amounted to €1.1bn, against an availability of €478m.

The A2 and Ba2 securities were underwritten by Alba Leasing itself for the time being.
