Helia Group Business Description

Other Exchanges 0GI0:Germany
Address 101 Miller Street, Level 26, North Sydney, Sydney, NSW, AUS, 2060
Helia listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2014 after its US-based parent, Genworth Financial (NYSE: GNW), sold down its stake. It has since exited. With a history spanning over 50 years, Helia is the largest provider of lenders' mortgage insurance, or LMI, in Australia. In Australia, LMI is predominantly purchased on loans with a loan/value ratio, or LVR, above 80%. LMI protects a lender against a potential loss (gap) between the outstanding loan amount and sale proceeds on a delinquent loan property. LMI does not protect the borrower, however the premium is paid by the borrower. It's regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, which requires it to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements.
