In the latest episode of our “European Securitisation Insights” podcast, Mudasar Chaudhry, who leads our European Structured Finance Research team, was joined by Andrew Lynch, Vice President of European Structured Finance Ratings, Surveillance, and Petter Wettestad, Vice President of European Structured Finance Ratings, Surveillance, to discuss the Irish buy-to-let (BTL) sector.

In this episode, the panellists summarised their observations across BTL in Ireland, including the key drivers and challenges facing the industry. Our experts delved into details of Irish BTL residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) transactions and how they are performing amidst the recent macroeconomic environment as well as stricter local rent reforms. They also shared their thoughts and expectations on the asset performance of RMBS transactions based on our analysis.
