Brex Inc. Closes Oversubscribed Third Securitization Issuance
March 2024
SAN FRANCISCO, CA – March 20, 2024 – Brex, the leading AI-powered spend platform for modern companies, today announced the closing of its third securitization transaction out of its previously established Brex Commercial Charge Card Master Trust.
The transaction included the issuance of $260M of charge card asset-based notes rated by Kroll Bond Rating Agency. The highest-rated bonds obtained an “AA” rating. This is an improvement in rating from Brex’s first and second securitizations, which were rated “A”. The transaction was meaningfully oversubscribed.
“Strong capital markets execution has always been an important part of Brex, as we’ve looked to use stable, low-cost funding to bolster our customer offering,” said Benjamin Gammell, Chief Financial Officer at Brex. “Since our inaugural securitization issuance in 2021, the capital markets have recognized the low risk and stability of our customer base, which is manifested in this upgraded rating.”
This milestone highlights the continued interest in Brex’s card business, which provides valuable financial products and services to our growing number of businesses. It also bolsters the Company’s liquidity position and strength as a financial counterparty to its customers.

The Series 2024-1 Notes are collateralized by a portfolio of receivables originated in non-revolving corporate charge card accounts.
