Australia's Private Credit Market

Worth $3.2 trillion dollars, Australia’s private credit market has experienced year-on-year growth over the past fifteen years. With regulatory changes forcing banks to tighten lending criteria, the demand for alternative sources of credit has increased exponentially. This has created significant demand with non-bank sourced credit now overtaking ADI (Australian Deposit Taking Institutions) funding for mid-market corporate entities and SME’s.

Investing in the private credit market offers wholesale investors access to superior risk-adjusted returns, lower volatility compared to traditional fixed-income investments, portfolio diversification and regular monthly income.

Can I withdraw money from the fund?

Fund investors will have an open period Semi-Annually to request a redemption. Redemptions will be completed 15 days after the end of the redemption period. Investors should review the conditions around redemption in the Investment Memorandum.

Are the underlying loans secured?

Yes, the underlying loans are secured by real assets, cashflows and other structural protections including director/borrower guarantees, registered security interests and first loss support.

How does Remara manage credit risk?

Remara has established relationships with proven and profitable loan originators and servicers. Remara undertakes a review of the credit policy and sets stringent portfolio and credit parameters to ensure a tight credit structure is maintained. Remara, on a monthly basis, will monitor the ongoing credit of the investment portfolio. Each originator retains a ‘first loss’ position in the loan.

What is the 'first loss' position and how does it work?

Remara has structured its investments to require the loan originator to fund and retain a ‘first loss’ portion of the loan. This means in the event of a credit loss, the originators capital is paid last in the recovery scenario. This results in an improved credit enhanced position for fund investors as the originator is aligned to fund investors with their money at risk ahead of fund investors.

Is Remara a bank?

No, Remara is an investment manager regulated by the Australian Investment and Securities Commission via a Financial Services licence.

Is an Investment into the Private Credit fund covered by the Australian Government deposit guarantee?

No, as Remara is not an Australian deposit taking institution, the investment is not covered under the guarantee.
