"We are pleased to report the Company's results for the first half of 2013," said Michael J.R Nisker, President and CEO of Trez Senior MIC. "As well as acquiring higher-yielding first mortgages, we have mitigated risk by maintaining a very low loan-to-value ratio and have loan durations averaging at about 18 months. As such, new mortgages are written to coincide with current interest rate environment."
"Looking into the second half of the year, we continue to add attractive deals to the portfolio," added Mr. Nisker. "As with the current portfolio, we will maintain our practice of writing loans that have a floating interest rate in relation to the prime rate and a fixed minimum rate. This will further protect the Company against interest rate fluctuation."
