CREDIT SUPPLY: Lloyds Bank GmbH Covered Issue: We See FV Around MS+33bp Area

CREDIT SUPPLY

Lloyds Bank’s (LLOYDS: A3/BBB+/A) German entity is issuing covered bonds today; we see fair value around MS+33bp area.

  • Lloyds is issuing EUR500m WNG 5Y covered fixed with guidance at MS+37bp area. Expected rating is Aaa.
  • Lloyds Bank plc has some old, low coupon covereds outstanding but Lloyds Bank GmbH is a new issuer with the majority of its mortgage lending actually in Netherlands. We’ve plotted a couple of German lenders’ covered bonds, alongside ING, which is perhaps the best comparator. There’s an INGB 3.2003% ’29 at MS+32bp, which appears a fair value floor to us. Therefore, we see fair value around MS+33bp area.
