Dublin-based mortgage lender Dilosk is seeking to raise €210 million in the international bond markets by refinancing a portfolio of buy-to-let mortgages.

It will mark the third such bond deal – known as a residential mortgage securitisation (RMBS) – in four years. The company started off in 2014 with the acquisition of Bank of Ireland’s ICS Mortgages brand and portfolio of loans.

It carried out a €200 million-plus RMBS on the original portfolio in 2015 and completed a €286 million bond deal, securitised against another portfolio of acquired Irish loans, which had originally been written by GE Capital and Leeds Building Society.

“Our company’s long-term growth plan is to acquire existing performing and re-performing residential mortgage books, in addition to new mortgage lending where we currently specialise in the residential investment mortgage market,” said Dilosk’s chief executive Fergal McGrath.
