Morningstar DBRS Takes Credit Rating Actions on Libra Solutions 2023-1 LLC

DBRS, Inc. (Morningstar DBRS) confirmed two credit ratings on Libra Solutions 2023-1 LLC.

Credit rating rationale includes the key analytical considerations:

-- Credit enhancement is in the form of overcollateralization, a liquidity reserve and excess funds. Credit enhancement levels have been rapidly building up since closing due to the turbo structure of the transaction.

-- Overall performance of the transaction has been in-line with expectations.

-- The transaction assumptions consider Morningstar DBRS's baseline macroeconomic scenarios for rated sovereign economies, available in its commentary Baseline Macroeconomic Scenarios for Rated Sovereigns - December 2024 Update, published on December 19, 2024. These baseline macroeconomic scenarios replace Morningstar DBRS's moderate and adverse COVID-19 pandemic scenarios, which were first published in April 2020.
