Is there a good reason why so many Uxbridge loan parts are now available? Many have 0.0% premium and for good rates (by FC standards). Thousands are for sale, Uxbridge1,2,3,4 etc.
I couldn't find another thread mentioning Uxbridge.

Thousands are for sale, Uxbridge1,2,3,4 etc. I couldn't find another thread mentioning Uxbridge. It was discussed a couple of pages back in the "Prop em up" thread. FC messed up and initially listed the first tranche as an A+ loan at 10%, which filled very rapidly for obvious reasons. They then decided it needed to be re-categorised as an A loan (still at 10%) and listed another tranche accordingly, which they then used to repay the A+ tranche immediately. My guess is that a lot of people saw "Uxbridge" and "10%", assumed it was the 2nd tranche of the A+ loan and filled their boots, only later realising that it was now an A loan and nothing special. Hence a lot of early exiting.

Yes, thank you. It is a refinance of earlier loans - yet another extension but looks OK. I hadn't appreciated the FC mix-up.
Not sure A+ and A means much these days??
