About Chartered Opus

Chartered Opus is a platform for the issue of bearer bonds.
Chartered Opus offers professional market participants (clients such as asset managers) the opportunity to realise “securitised” concepts/products for their own investment or for their customers.
Chartered Opus combines the client’s specified assets in a new product and “securitises” them. The Luxembourg Securitisation Act makes it possible to subdivide the balance sheet of an issuer into individual sub-funds (each a “compartment”). This legal option of securitisation transforms selected assets into a balance sheet-accounted sub-fund that is exclusively available to the respective owners. The issuer risk is thus limited to this sub-fund.
