US private equity fund Lone Star is now the official owner of a portfolio of real estate assets (REO) and non-performing loans (NPL) with a gross value of € 2,703 million purchased from the Spanish bank Bankia.

According to a note sent to Spanish Securities Commission (CNVM), the correspondent value from the real estate total €1,420 million while the NPL has a gross value of €1,283 million.

The difference between the final value of the sale and the initial value– of €367 million – is due to the «the organic recovery and the day-to-day management of the assets that had have been taken since the signature of the agreement until now», explains the banking entity.
