Deutsche Bank has acquired a vendor loan note worth as much as $650 million linked to a portfolio of non-distressed Australian real estate loans, sources told Street Talk.
It's understood the vendor loan note was included in the Australian portion of a financing package offered by GE Capital when it sold its $US23 billion global property empire to private equity giant Blackstone and US bank Wells Fargo in April.
