KBRA Affirms Ratings for GCI Funding I LLC

KBRA is affirming the ratings on the Class A and Class B notes for GCI Funding I Series 2020-1, and Series 2021-1, which are collectively part of the GCI Funding I master trust, a container securitization which closed on June 18, 2021. The affirmations follow KBRA’s review, which indicated the performance of the securitization adequately supports the existing ratings. The review used information obtained from the Issuer’s servicer reports through the May 2022 payment date report. Total cash flow available for debt remains in line with KBRA’s initial base case projections, and all classes of notes have received timely interest and scheduled principal since closing.
