The Outcome 

  • Successfully raised additional debt funding to support future developments in the housing sector by ensuring the funding was the most suitable package 
  • Created a robust financial model that could be updated with relevant sensitivities and live data 
  • Limited impact to the day-to-day running of the association due to AAB project managing the fundraising process 
  • AAB have advised on subsequent refinancing of existing borrowing that led to further development within the housing sector.
