Plenti prices renewable energy
and personal loan ABS
Plenti Group Limited (Plenti) announces the pricing of a $375 million asset-backed securities
(ABS) transaction covering personal, home solar and home battery loan receivables (the Plenti
PL & Green ABS 2024-1).
The transaction was the third in the PL & Green program with Plenti and was notable for the
increased size of the climate bond certified A1-G tranche against prior transactions, representing
29% of the notes offered. The quantum of Plenti’s equity contribution also reduced from the
2023 transaction, reflecting the improvement in net interest margins on loans written in the
past 12 months.
