DBRS Discontinues Rating on the Class A Notes Issued by Creso 2 S.r.l.

DBRS Ratings Limited (DBRS) has today discontinued its AA (sf) rating on the Class A notes issued by Creso 2 S.r.l. (the Issuer).

The rating action reflects the payment in full of the Class A notes as of the payment date of 30 June 2017.

The remaining balance of the Class A notes before the payment in full was EUR 74,227,332.09.

Notes:
All figures are in euros unless otherwise noted.

The principal methodology applicable to the rating is: “Master European Structured Finance Surveillance Methodology”.

In DBRS’s opinion, a discontinued-repaid rating action does not warrant the application of the entire principal methodology, as the bond has been repaid in full.

Other methodologies referenced in this transaction are listed at the end of this press release.
