Plenti prices $509 million Auto ABS in first Australian
securitisation market deal for 2025
Plenti Group Limited (Plenti) announces the pricing of a $509 million asset-backed securities
(ABS) transaction backed by prime automotive loan receivables (the Plenti Auto ABS 2025-1).
The transaction is Plenti’s fifth automotive loan ABS and ninth ABS transaction overall, with total
issuance across Plenti’s public securitisation programs now exceeding $3.4 billion.
The transaction, the first deal to price in the Australian securitisation market in 2025, received
very strong demand from both domestic and offshore investors and priced at better levels than
similar deals last year with the weighted average note margin being ~25 bps lower than the
equivalent Plenti Auto ABS transaction in 2024.
