Greek lender Alpha Bank is preparing two non-performing loan sales that could remove as much as 3.5 billion euros ($4 billion) of bad debt from its balance sheet, according to two people familiar with the plans.
One of the portfolios, dubbed Neptune, comprises 1.5 billion euros of loans secured against assets of small and medium-sized enterprises, the people said, asking not to be named because the plans aren’t public. The bank is considering securitizing the debt but may also sell the loans outright, one of the people said.
The second package, known internally as Orion, amounts to 2 billion euros of securitized residential mortgages, the people said. Both the transactions are likely to be offered in the second half of 2019, they said.
An external spokesman for Alpha Bank in London declined to comment on the plans
