55. Assets pledged as collateral for liabilities and transferred financial assets

 

Receivables covered by the securitization of lease receivables

As at 31 December 2018, securitized lease receivables amounted to PLN 688 million. They are pledged as collateral for liabilities in respect of debt securities issued by the special purpose vehicle ROOF Poland Leasing 2014 DAC. The securitized lease receivables are presented in the Group’s assets because they do not meet the criteria for being derecognized from the statement of financial positon as the Group is not required to pay any amounts to the final recipients of the debt securities until it has received the corresponding amounts from lessees. Furthermore, the criterion of an immediate transfer of cash flows from the securitized assets is not met.

Such assets funds are treated as assets pledged as collateral for own liabilities, they cannot be pledged or encumbered in any way, are excluded from judicial or administrative enforcement proceedings and do not form part of the estate in bankruptcy.
