InvG concludes British lease transaction

Headquartered in London, ING has agreed to exit the UK lease operations for new hire origination and to wind up the current fleet. As a result, there now remains a 1 billion pound shortfall in the lease and assets financing markets. NACC CEO Adam Tyler immediately set up appointments with a number of donors, among them George Ashworth of Aldermore and Investec, who indicated that they had raised the amount of money they were willing to put on the shelves.

Following the recent Lombard losses, we still had ING at our disposal to grant loans in the mart. Although there is currently not a clear replacement for ING, we are working with a number of different donors that Adam will primarily meet, and he will also have discussions with the FLA.

Hopefully we will be able to announce some really good moves forward next weekend.
