The refinancing involved 911 beds of c. 4.400 operated by UPP at the University. They initially reached financial close in 2012 and have been operational since 2013.
The £67m senior debt was provided by Allianz Global Investors through a 33 year indexed-linked bond.”
Stephen Jackson, Commercial Development Director at Nottingham Trent University, said:
“The refinancing has secured the long-term funding of our student accommodation provision and has been an important transaction for the University. QMPF’s advice enabled us to get comfortable with the commercial impact of the refinancing and to generate best value to the University as a result.”
The Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education was awarded to Nottingham Trent University in November 2015. It is the highest national honour for a UK university and recognises the institution’s world-class research.
