The transaction, rated by the Kroll Bond Rating Agency, jointly led by Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Guggenheim Securities, LLC, and co-managed by Barclays Capital and Citi Global Markets underscores the strength of Mercury Financial’s purpose-driven business model and targeting technologies focused on the 36 million consumers in the near-prime credit segment.
