01 — Positioning

Collateralised exposure to
European real assets.

SH issues senior and subordinated notes backed by cash-flowing real estate and structured credit portfolios. Our investor base consists of pension funds, insurance companies, asset managers and institutional family offices seeking collateralised income with predictable cash-flow profiles.

Pan-European portfolio exposure

Diversified,
directly collateralised.

Every SH-arranged instrument is secured by real assets or mortgage certificates held by a bankruptcy-remote Fin-Co. The collateral is ring-fenced from the originator's balance sheet, with cash flows monitored and distributed by a third-party security agent and paying agent.

Investors receive loan-level data, quarterly servicer reports, and significant-event notifications in line with Article 7 of the EU Securitisation Regulation. STS-compliant issuances carry the associated label where eligible.

02 — Asset classes

Six securitisation programmes.

01 · Real Estate

Commercial & residential mortgages

Senior and mezzanine tranches backed by pools of European commercial and residential mortgage receivables. Typical tenor 5–7 years, EUR and CHF denominations.

02 · Single-asset

Single-borrower CRE notes

Dedicated financings of individual large commercial real estate assets. Suitable for investors seeking specific property exposure with direct security on the underlying asset.

03 · Operational

Hospitality & care

Hotel and care-facility financings with operator covenant analysis, ADR/RevPAR monitoring, and contractual operating guarantees.

04 · Transport

Aviation & maritime

Aircraft and ship financings with long-term charter or lease agreements as the primary cash flow source. Structured through dedicated asset-holding SPVs.

05 · Structured credit

Leasing & loan receivables

Diversified portfolios of leasing receivables and consumer or SME loan receivables, tranched to match investor risk-return mandates.

06 · Thematic

Energy infrastructure

Structured financings for operational renewable energy assets and, selectively, battery energy storage systems with offtake agreements in place.

03 — Tranche structure

Senior, junior,
equity.

Senior Notes
Investment-grade, collateralised

Target rating BBB to AA depending on transaction. Senior claim on all cash flows from the underlying collateral. Standard tenor five to seven years, fixed or floating rate. Suitable for pension funds, insurance companies and conservative asset managers.

Junior Notes
(Series A)
Subordinated, higher coupon

Subordinate to senior notes in the waterfall, above the equity piece. Target unrated or sub-investment-grade rating. Higher coupon compensates for subordination. Suitable for specialist debt funds and insurance mezzanine mandates.

Junior Notes
(Series B)
Deeper subordination

Second-loss tranche above equity. Issued when transaction economics and capital structure require deeper tranching. Pricing reflects further distance from default protection.

Equity / First-loss
Retained or placed

The first-loss piece is typically retained by the originator to satisfy risk retention requirements under Article 6 of the EU Securitisation Regulation. In selected transactions, a portion may be placed with aligned investors or specialist equity funds.

04 — Reporting

What investors receive.

01

Loan-level data

Quarterly loan-by-loan data in ESMA templates where applicable. Covers principal balance, payment performance, LTV, DSCR and significant changes.

02

Investor reports

Quarterly investor reports covering cash flow waterfall, tranche balances, performance triggers, and forward-looking covenants.

03

Significant event notices

Notices for any event materially affecting the transaction — covenant breaches, rating changes, servicer changes, collateral changes — within the notice periods set by the documentation.

04

Annual servicer reports

Comprehensive annual report covering portfolio performance, valuation updates, forward-looking assessment, and compliance confirmation.

05

STS compliance attestations

Where transactions are STS-compliant, annual attestations of continuing compliance signed by the originator and, where applicable, a third-party verification agent.

06

Direct dialogue

Annual investor meetings for material transactions. Direct access to the SH team for bespoke questions throughout the life of the instrument.

05 — Pipeline access

NDA-gated transaction pipeline.

Investors who have signed our master NDA receive advance notice of upcoming issuances, typically four to six weeks before marketing begins. This gives time for internal credit committee preparation on transactions that may be of particular interest.

How to get on the list.

Qualified institutional investors request access directly from our capital markets desk.

The process is straightforward: a short eligibility confirmation, execution of our standard master NDA, and addition to the transaction pipeline distribution list. No fee, no obligation to participate in any specific transaction.

The distribution list is segmented by mandate — senior-only, mezzanine-included, specific asset classes, jurisdictions — so investors receive only what is relevant to their actual risk appetite.
