Bain Capital Credit’s special situations strategy became “Bain Capital Special Situations” in Fall 2022.

London, December 21, 2021 – Bain Capital Credit, LP (“Bain Capital Credit”) and funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group LLC (“Fortress”) today announced the acquisition of Project Frontier. Project Frontier involves the acquisition of 95% of the Mezzanine and Junior notes (the “Notes”) from a securitization backed by a ca. €6bn gross book value portfolio of non-performing exposures from National Bank of Greece. 
 
Bain Capital Credit, Fortress and doValue S.p.A. have formed a consortium (the “Consortium”) whereby funds and accounts managed by Bain Capital Credit and Fortress, respectively, acquired the Notes and doValue was appointed as the servicer of the securitization. Project Frontier is a landmark transaction, being the first acquisition on a servicer-release basis of a large-scale securitization in Greece, utilizing the Hellenic Asset Protection Scheme (“Hercules”) in Greece. 

This is Bain Capital Credit’s fourth large-scale acquisition of non-performing exposure portfolios in Greece, following projects EGEE, Amoeba and Icon. Fortress successfully completed Project Neptune in 2020, in addition to several recent single borrower transactions.
