Market Trends

Key trends in Private debt industryThe main trends to expect: superabundant capital vs assets, shadow capital, challenging returns and competition between GPs
HIGH LEVEL OF CAPITAL, LOW YIELD, HIGH PRICED
ASSETS
Dry powder levels hit a record high of $179bn as at the end of Q2. Direct lending funds have seen an increase of 45% from December 2014 in the levels of capital available for new investments, while Europe-focused debt funds have seen an increase of 51%
FIERCE COMPETITION BETWEEN GP’S
Trends in private debt fundraising seem to suggest investors are increasingly willing to invest with established fund managers that have the capability to deploy private financing capital on a large scale
“ALTERNATIVE LENDER” vs TRADITIONAL BANKING
LPs are looking at different collaboration models fitting their needs with more flexibility than traditional banking.
This continuing change gives ability to:(i) enhance more returns at a lower cost(ii) provide flexibility on the equity structuring (iii) tailor financing in niche markets

Private Debt: Tax considerations
Christophe Diricks
© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting 26© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting
Avoiding the need of a banking license
Flexibility in respect of the choice of a regulated or unregulated structure
Flexible in terms of investment policy i.e. primary market (loan origination) or secondary
market (distressed or discounted debt)
Flexible accounting rules (Lux GAAP or IFRS)
Low maintenance costs
Flexible in terms of flows of income (fixed vs. variable)
Accommodating US investors : CTB election
There are operational aspects to consider when establishing a debt structure…
© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting 27© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting
Neutrality for treaty protected investors:
The structure should have access to double tax treaties (DTTs) in order to mitigate the
withholding tax at source (WHT) on interest payments
The structure should mitigate taxation on interest income, capital gains and potentially FX
gains
The structure should avoid WHT on distributions to investors
Substance is key especially in light of upcoming BEPS (action 6)
The entity should demonstrate beneficial ownership of the income to access some DTTs
(e.g. UK, Spain, Czech R., South Africa, …) and get WHT relief

Regulatory Framework
Luxembourg banking regulation
Loan origination
The origination of loans, whichencompasses both the creation of newloans and the modification of existingloans, is the traditional activity of thebanking sector
• The Luxembourg banking law (as interpreted by the
CSSF) applies to banking institutions and PFS but DO
NOT APPLY to :
• Intra-group transactions
• Acquisitions of existing loans
• Securitization undertaking, UCI, SIF, SICAR and
any other entity which is subject to specific
legislation even if it operates through wholly
owned or controlled SPVs
• One-off: SOPARFIs granting a single loan or
performing a one-off operation
• Private lending: SOPARFIs granting loans to a
limited circle of people that can be identified
When originating loans, investors
should thus pay attention to avoid
being considered as carrying out an
activity subject to banking license
…for multiple investment policies including loan origination
© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting 30© 2015 Deloitte Tax & Consulting
Setting the scene: Vehicle selection
However, the selection of the vehicle will depend on the investment policy

Securitization vehicle: only for passive strategy
• SV acquires/grants loans to the extent these loans are
implemented thanks to a third party (e.g. bank) and the PPM
specifies how borrowers are selected
• SV cannot generate any additional risk and cannot act as an
entrepreneur or trader
• Re-investment of the proceeds in principle not permitted
unless transferred to dedicated compartment
• Tax neutral (CIT/MBT/NWT)
• Access to DTTs
• No WHT on dividend/interest payments
• No need for a banking license
• SV can be either unregulated or regulated
• Out of AIFMD’s scope and VAT exemption on management fees (under certain conditions)
• Segregation
