Assured Guaranty (Europe) SA (AGE) announced on May 27, 2025, that it has guaranteed principal and interest payments on a €96 million loan for a significant infrastructure project in Spain. The loan was provided to Sociedad Concesionaria 5 Villas, S.A., an entity owned by Acciona Concesiones, S.L. and Papsa Infraestructuras S.A. This transaction further expands Assured Guaranty's footprint in Continental Europe.
The 23-year, fixed-rate loan, bearing a 3.65% coupon, was provided by a consortium of banks including Bankinter, S.A., Kutxabank S.A., and Unicaja Banco S.A. The proceeds will be utilized to finance the construction of sections of the A-127 roadway in Aragon, Spain. This project includes the expansion of a 24-kilometer roadway and the renovation of a 14-kilometer stretch.
Raphael de Tapol, Directeur Général of AGE, emphasized the value of the guarantee for major infrastructure sponsors seeking cost-effective long-term debt for public sector projects. Raul Serrano, Managing Director, Infrastructure Finance of AGE, noted the successful close of this project as a significant milestone for AGE and the Spanish banking and investment sector. This initiative is part of the Aragon Regional Road Network Investment Plan, aiming to stimulate the local economy and improve connectivity.
