SBC WARBURG Dillon Read will bring a new asset class to the sterling market today (Friday) when it parcels surplus income for UK mutual insurer National Provident Institution. But the deal has global significance too - to date this kind of cashflow has only been securitised in a few small, shorter dated private deals in the US. Mutual Securitisation plc will issue at least £250m of fixed rate paper in two tranches, with average lives of nine and 20 years. The bonds will amortise according to a fixed schedule. The short tranche, worth at least £130m, will be priced at 140bp over Gilts, while the longer piece will have a minimum size of £120m and spread of 170bp.
