Portfolio Investment Announcement

Following its recent successful placing, RECI is pleased to announce that it has made a new £20m loan commitment as part of an overall Cheyne transaction providing a senior facility secured against a high quality residential development asset in central London. The conservative Loan to Gross Development Value (LTGDV) is under 50% and the investment IRR provides attractive economics in line with the Company's target returns. Due to the strength and depth of Cheyne's deal pipeline, RECI remains well placed to take advantage of upcoming opportunities in both the loan and structured credit markets.
