DBRS Discontinues Rating of the Class A Notes Issued by Credico Finance 8 S.r.l.

DBRS Ratings GmbH (DBRS) discontinued its rating of the Class A Notes issued by Credico Finance 8 S.r.l.

The discontinuation reflects the payment in full of the Class A Notes on 7 January 2019. The remaining balance and rating of the Class A Notes prior to the full redemption were EUR 53,955,045.11 and AAA (sf), respectively.

Notes:
All figures are in euros unless otherwise noted.

The principal methodology applicable to the rating is the “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. These may be found on www.dbrs.com at: http://www.dbrs.com/about/methodologies.

DBRS does not audit or independently verify the data or information it receives in connection with the rating process.
