RATINGS RATIONALE
The rated securities are payable from the cash flow coming from the assets
of the trust, which is an amortizing pool of approximately 22,602
eligible personal loans denominated in Argentine pesos, with a fixed
interest rate, originated by Banco Supervielle, in an aggregate
amount of ARS 100,002,022.
These personal loans are granted to pensioners that receive their monthly
pensions from ANSES (Argentina's National Governmental Agency of Social
Security - Administración Nacional de la Seguridad Social).
The pool is also constituted by loans granted to government employees
of the Province of San Luis. Banco Supervielle is the payment agent
entity and automatically deducts the monthly loan installment directly
from the employee's paycheck and pensioner's payment.
The Class A Fixed Rate Debt Securities will bear a fixed interest rate
of 12.75%. The Floating Rate Debt Securities will
bear a BADLAR interest rate plus a spread of 358 bp. The Floating
Rate Debt Securities' interest rate will never be higher than 21%
or lower than 13%. The Class C Fixed Rate Securities will
bear a fixed interest rate of 21%.
Overall credit enhancement is comprised of subordination: 69%
for the Class A Fixed Rate Debt Securities, 15% for the Floating
Rate Securities and 5% for the Class C Fixed Rate Securities.
In addition the transaction has various reserve funds and excess spread.
Moody's considered the credit enhancement provided in this transaction
through the initial subordination levels for each rated class, as
well as the historical performance of Supervielle's portfolio.
In addition, Moody's considered factors common to consumer loans
securitizations such as delinquencies, prepayments and losses;
as well as specific factors related to the Argentine market, such
as the probability of an increase in losses if there are changes in the
macroeconomic scenario in Argentina.
These factors were incorporated in a cash flow model that takes into account
all the relevant features of the transaction's assets and liabilities.
Monte Carlo simulations were run, which determines the expected
loss for the rated securities.
In assigning the rating to this transaction, Moody's assumed
a triangular distribution for defaults on the main pool centered around
a most likely scenario of 10%, a minimum of 5% and
a maximum of 20%. Also, Moody's assumed a triangular
distribution for prepayments centered around a most likely scenario of
20%, a minimum of 15% and a maximum of 35%.
These assumptions are derived from the historical performance to date
of the Banex's pools.
The model results showed 0.00% expected loss for Class A
Fixed Rate Debt Securities and Floating Rate Debt Securities, 1.54%
expected loss for Class C Fixed Rate Debt Securities and 16.03%
for the Certificates.
Moody's ran several stress scenarios, including increases
in the default rate assumptions. If default rates were increased
10% from the base case scenario for the pool (i.e.,
most likely scenario of 20%, a minimum of 15% and
a maximum of 30%), the ratings of the Classes A and Floating
Rate would be unchanged. The ratings for Class C Fixed Rate debt
securities would be likely downgraded to Ca (sf) and to C (sf) for the
Certificates.
Moody's also considered the risk that a disruption in the flow of payments
from ANSES or the Government of San Luis to pensioners and employees respectively,
could severely affect the performance of the pool. Moody's believes
that the ratings assigned are consistent with this risk.
Finally, Moody's also evaluated the back-up servicing arrangements
in the transaction. If Banco Supervielle is removed as servicer,
Deutsche Bank Argentina S.A. will be appointed as the back-up
servicer.
The main source of uncertainty for this transaction is the regulatory
and legal framework for the automatic deduction loans in Argentina.
