Roc360 Launches New $150 Million Insurance Fund for Homes
Roc360 Closes $150 Million Insurance Dedicated Fund
Roc360, a leading provider of real estate financing solutions, has made headlines with the closing of its inaugural Insurance Dedicated Fund (IDF) that has successfully attracted $150 million from an established annuity and retirement services provider. This notable venture marks a significant step in the realm of residential credit asset investment.
The IDF is poised to utilize its funds across a variety of residential mortgage assets and associated securities. It stands out as one of the pioneering strategies within the IDF framework due to its exclusive focus on residential credit assets.
A Game-Changer in Real Estate Financing
Commenting on this development, Michael Bennett, Managing Director and Head of Corporate Development at Roc360, expressed enthusiasm about the launch of the IDF. "Our IDF program offers insurance companies a unique avenue to unlock relative value in the residential credit space, an area where they are often confined to whole loan purchases or limited segments of the capital stack in residential mortgage-backed securitizations," he stated. Bennett emphasized the commitment to finding innovative ways to better cater to real estate investors and capital partners who are instrumental in revitalizing and renovating the country’s aging housing stock.
Bennett further elaborated, stating, "We view our IDF initiative as a complementary aspect of our broader Insurance Solutions efforts, simplifying the investment process for insurance firms looking to engage in residential mortgage assets from various perspectives such as sourcing, servicing, and reporting."
Partnering for Success
The operational framework of the IDF includes SALI Fund Services, which serves as the general partner and investment manager. In this joint effort, Roc360 Advisors plays a crucial role as the investment sub-advisor for the IDF, bringing in expertise to enhance the management of the fund.
