Do notes come with a buyback obligation?

Updated over a month ago

Unlike asset-backed securities (ABS) from loan originators, Notes do not include a formal buyback obligation.

However, they are protected by a redemption obligation, which serves a similar purpose.

While not always explicitly labeled, this obligation is outlined in the Base Prospectus:
If a Note becomes non-performing, the issuer is required to redeem it early, before the scheduled maturity.

From an investor’s perspective, this mechanism provides a comparable level of protection to a buyback — ensuring that underperforming assets are promptly addressed and investor interests safeguarded.
