DBRS Discontinues Rating of Class A Notes Issued by Abruzzo 2015 RMBS S.r.l.

DBRS Ratings GmbH (DBRS) discontinued its AA (high) (sf) rating of the Class A Notes issued by Abruzzo 2015 RMBS S.r.l. The discontinuation reflects the payment in full of the Class A Notes on 16 May 2019. The remaining balance of the Class A Notes prior to the full redemption was EUR 166,418,237.80.

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.
