DBRS Confirms BBB (low) (sf) Rating of the TRS Re: Gloucester Street ABS CDO I, Ltd. Class A-1 Notes

DBRS has today confirmed the rating of BBB (low) (sf) to the total return swap (TRS) referencing Gloucester Street ABS CDO I, Ltd.’s Class A-1 Notes. The DBRS rating addresses the ultimate return of interest and principal of the TRS on or before the legal final maturity of the Class A-1 Notes, taking into account the Credit Enhancement.

The Class A-1 Notes issued by Gloucester Street ABS CDO I, Ltd are collateralized by a pool of underlying assets that consists of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), U.S. commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), U.S. residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and other U.S. asset-backed securities (ABS), a majority of which are assessed by DBRS in the C range.

The TRS obligations are liabilities of the majority Class A-1 Noteholder only and are independent of (and do not amend) the obligations of Gloucester Street ABS CDO I, Ltd. This rating is being provided at the request of the majority Class A-1 Noteholder.

The primary methodology is the Rating U.S. ABS CDO Restructurings, which can be found on our website under Methodologies.
