Cajamar has completed a new sale of a an NPL portfolio. The company has placed the EUR 17.5 million Atenea II portfolio with specialists Goriz Advisor and Gannet. According to market sources, the portfolio consists of 200 NPL (non-performing loans) with mortgage guarantees.

The bank, like most banks, has been removing non-performing assets from its balance sheet for years in favour of funds and specialist investors in order to improve its risk profile. Until last year, it also had an agreement with Haya Real Estate, the servicer acquired by Intrum, for the management of its assets, but when it expired it decided not to renew it in order to deal directly and internally with its own resources.
