Hildene’s sixth non-QM securitization of 2025 marks $2.7 billion in issuance, year-to-date

Hildene Capital Management, LLC (“Hildene” or the “Firm”), a $16.8 billion credit-focused alternative asset manager, announced the recent close of CROSS 2025-H6, a $496.3 million securitization. CROSS 2025-H6 is collateralized by a pool of 968 non-qualified residential mortgage (“non-QM”) loans, and has a weighted average FICO score of 748 and a loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of 71.03%. The transaction was rated by Fitch and Kroll, with 96.35% being rated investment grade AAA through BBB-.

This transaction follows Hildene’s $416.4 million CROSS 2025-H5 securitization, which closed in June 2025, featuring a pool of 881 residential mortgage loans with a weighted average FICO score of 747 and an LTV ratio of 71.26%. Loans across both securitizations were wholly originated through Hildene’s strategic relationship with CrossCountry Mortgage, a leading retail residential mortgage lender in the U.S.

“We are seeing continued demand for high-credit-quality non-QM origination, as demonstrated by our consistent issuance and the successful close of these securitizations,” said Justin Gregory, Portfolio Manager at Hildene.

Hildene has completed six non-QM loan securitizations in 2025 and sixteen since the inception of the Firm’s relationship with CrossCountry Mortgage in 2022. Year-to-date issuance for the Firm totals $2.7 billion.
