AUSTRALIAN COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE DEBT Market dislocation creates opportunities October 2016 Madison Financial Group www.balmainprivate.com.au
SECTION 1 Why invest in commercial real estate debt?
ASSET SIDE Senior secured credit position with multiple layers of capital protection Registered 1 st mortgage loans Mid market loans secured over non-specialised commercial real estate Average loan size of $2m - $10m Mid-market securities are less complex, require less capital and easier to manage in event of default Lending to a conservative percentage of market value. At LVR of 60% the value decline must exceed 35% to give rise to the prospect of a principal loss Additional protection provided by borrower corporate and personal guarantees Australian legal system supportive of mortgagee interests Industry default ratio less than 0.50%, loss given default circa 0.10% 3
LOSS RATES ON WELL UNDERWRITTEN CRE DEBT ARE LOW Loss rates on Australian and US life company CRE debt compared (2006 2014) 4
RETURN SIDE Reliable income streams and high capital stability High returns relative to other credit investments but significantly lower and more easily understood risk Monthly income returns Low volatility Low levels of loss given default High level of capital stability Low correlations with traditional fixed income and other floating-rate investments Resilience to margin pressure But: Very limited liquidity 5
ENDURING MARKET OPPORTUNITY Significant mispriced credit opportunities Major Australian banks retreating from key CRE mid-market debt sectors Foreign banks not active in CRE debt sector Securitisation only financing small ticket CRE debt programs (<$2m) Retail mortgage funds all but non-existent Private capital scarce for transactions >$2m Investment banks and PE funds not active in sub $50m transactions Major participants have exited market (e.g. GE Capital Holdings, Capital Finance, BOSI) Very limited competition in mid-cap sector Low supply and strong demand creates significant opportunity for new sources of loan capital tat are able to assess risk and provide opportunistic financing solutions Due to market consolidation experienced borrower groups are seeking alternate sources of capital 6
