Risk Retention Tranche Investing
After the Risk Retention Rule of the Dodd-Frank Act has been put into effect, Risk Retention Tranche(B-Piece) for CMBS or Debt of SASB type of asset(Single Asset Single Borrower) has been actively invested by KKR, Rialto, etc.
Im currently working at a RE PE firm preparing for this risk retention investment, and kind of having a hard time with understanding this niche market as this specific market works under the newly imposed law. Does anybody know the investment process or how DD works for risk retention tranche deals? Please PM me with any materials that can boost my understanding. I have lots of helpful RE materials that I will provide in return.
They (KKR, Rialto, etc) don’t “invest” in risk retention tranches. It’s the same a being a b piece buyer prior to risk retention starting. The only difference now is they need to hold part of the b piece for a set period of time.
There are 3 structures allowed to satisfy risk retention: - vertical - generally done when banks issuing the deal are satisfying the rule - horizontal - b piece buyer satisfies the rule - L-shaped - issuer will hold the vertical part of the “L” and b piece buyer will hold the horizontal part of the “L”
There are exceptions to the above but for the most part follow the model.
If you want information on diligence being done on the b piece buying side, that is a different conversation. Send me a PM if you want.
