Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV)

Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV)

What is a Special Purpose Vehicle?

A Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) is a separate legal entity created to isolate financial risk by owning specific assets or projects. It is commonly used in structured finance, project finance, and securitization to ring-fence assets and liabilities from the parent company.


Key Characteristics

  • Separate Legal Entity: Distinct from the parent company, with its balance sheet.

  • Bankruptcy Remoteness: Protects the SPV’s assets from claims against the parent company.

  • Limited Purpose: Established for a specific, narrowly defined objective.

  • Controlled Risks: Isolates financial and legal risks related to the underlying assets or projects.


Uses of SPVs

  • Financing large projects without impacting the parent company’s credit.

  • Holding assets such as property, equipment, or receivables.

  • Securitization of financial assets (e.g., mortgage-backed securities).

  • Facilitating complex transactions and risk management.


Benefits

  • Enables risk isolation and management.

  • Enhances the creditworthiness of projects or assets by separating them from the parent company's risk.

  • Facilitates access to capital markets.

  • Provides legal and tax efficiencies.
