Achieve announces close of $157.5 million, AAA-rated personal loan securitization


Deal backed by Consolidation Plus personal loans brings total securitization volume backed by Achieve loans to over $5.3 billion

SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Achieve, the digital personal finance company, announces the Oct. 27 close of an offering of $157.52 million in rated notes backed by Consolidation Plus loans.

The securitization, ACHV ABS Trust 2023-4CP, includes five classes of rated notes and is backed by 14,141 unsecured consumer personal loans. It is the 21st securitization from Freedom Consumer Credit Fund, LLC (FCCF), an investment fund managed by Freedom Financial Asset Management, LLC (FFAM), an Achieve company. It is the eighth personal loan securitization from FCCF and FFAM to receive a AAA rating from DBRS Morningstar and the 10th to receive a AAA rating from Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA).

Consolidation Plus loans are offered exclusively to members of Achieve's debt resolution program and those of certain other legal services providers who have been enrolled for at least six months and have made timely payments into their dedicated accounts during that time.

"Consolidation Plus loans help accelerate the debt resolution process for consumers who are struggling with debt, but have demonstrated a commitment and ability to resolve their debt," said Achieve Co-Founder and Co-CEO Andrew Housser. "This securitization supports Achieve's mission of helping everyday people get on the path to a better financial future."

Consolidation Plus loans are fully amortizing, unsecured consumer loans with original balances ranging from $1,000-$75,000, original terms of one to six years, and a fixed interest rate of 23.90% and 26.90%. Underwriting for the Consolidation Plus loan program is based on proprietary algorithms that evaluate behavioral, transactional, employment and income data, as well as a manual review of borrowers' creditworthiness. The loans are originated by bank partners on the Achieve Personal Loans platform.

"This securitization was five times' oversubscribed, reflecting the strong investor demand for Achieve's differentiated loan assets and our strong track record in the market," said Achieve Chief Financial Officer Ralph L. Leung.

The Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E fixed-rate notes were rated AAA (sf), AA (sf), A (sf), BBB (sf) and BB (sf), respectively, by KBRA. The Class A, Class B and Class C fixed-rate notes were rated AAA (sf), AA (sf) and A (sf), respectively, by DBRS Morningstar. The Class D and Class E notes were not rated by DBRS. The transaction structure features overcollateralization, subordination, a reserve fund and excess spread.

Truist Securities served as Structuring Agent, Initial Purchaser and Joint Bookrunner. ATLAS SP Partners and Jefferies each served as Rated Notes Initial Purchaser and Joint Bookrunner and CRB Securities served as Rated Notes Initial Purchaser. Since 2018, FCCF has sponsored 18 personal loan securitizations and three home equity line of credit securitizations. Cumulative issuances across all FCCF-sponsored securitizations total over $5.3 billion and total loan originations through the Achieve Personal Loans platform and Achieve Home Loans is approximately $11 billion.
