Single Stock Loan for USA Based Client Looking to Purchase A New Company

Case Overview:

  • Client Location: United States
  •  High-net-worth individual
  • Loan Amount: USD250,000,000
  • Loan-to-Value (LTV): 55%
  • Share Type: Shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange
  • Interest Rate: 5.80% per annum

Context and Purpose:

Single stock portfolios, often considered high risk, are not uncommon among high-net-worth individuals. Such portfolios can be leveraged to create liquidity, make strategic acquisitions, or invest in real estate. In this case, the client, an owner of a US publicly listed company specializing in property management, sought to secure a USD250 million stock loan against their shares.

Company Profile:

  • Company Type: Property management company focused on property retail and management
  • Market Capitalization: $5 billion
  • Stock Exchange Listing: New York Stock Exchange

Challenges Faced:

Despite the significant market capitalization of $5 billion, the client’s shares, valued at approximately £500 million, were not subject to restrictions and were free trading. This never presented any challenges in securing a loan against the shares.

Loan Structure and Solution:

To address the complexities, a single stock loan in the United States with a 55% Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio was successfully arranged. This structure allowed the client to retain equitable rights to the shares throughout the loan term. Generally, single stock loans carry lower LTV ratios compared to loans collateralized against more diverse portfolios. The illiquidity of the stocks and the perceived difficulty in selling them in the event of default influence the LTV ratio and loan costs.

Benefits of The Stock Loan:

  • Retained Equity: The client maintained ownership rights and benefits associated with the shares throughout the loan duration.
  • Flexibility: The stock loan provides flexibility for the borrower, allowing them to potentially benefit from share appreciation.
  • Lower Loan-to-Value: Despite the complexity associated with single stock loans, a competitive 55% LTV was secured.

Complexity and Transactional Involvement:

Single stock loans are intricate transactions that require attention to detail. Managing the intricacies of the deal, handling fundamental elements of the transaction, troubleshooting challenges, and streamlining the process demonstrated a commitment to facilitating seamless stock-based loans.

Conclusion:

This case exemplifies expertise in navigating the complexities of single stock loans, securing a stock loan for a USA based client against shares in a high-profile United States based property management company. The tailored solution allowed the client to access significant liquidity while retaining ownership rights, showcasing a dedication to facilitating intricate financial transactions for USA based high-net-worth individuals.
