The report focused on the 2012 sale of Project Nantes, a portfolio of loans linked to Quinlan Private, to Clairvue Capital, a US private equity fund. At the time of the sale, the loans were managed by Avestus, which took over Quinlan Private in 2010. The portfolio included personal loans of partners in Quinlan’s business. Then Independent TD Mick Wallace revealed that a director of Avestus was also a director of the Clairvue entity that bought the loans, which he claimed was illegal. McCarthy found that it wasn’t illegal, as the provisions preventing the sale of Nama assets at discounts back to anyone linked to the original borrowers technically only referred to the sale of property and not loans. The loans were sold for about €27 million, a €10 million loss for the agency – the only loss it made on loans linked to Avestus. McCarthy found that Nama undervalued the Nantes portfolio by as much as €29 million.

Speaking under privilege, Mr Wallace said the company Avestus took over Quinlan Private in 2010. The three principal directors, Olan Cremin, Thomas Dowd and Peter Donnelly, had borrowed heavily during the boom, mainly from Anglo Irish Bank, and owed €489m when the crash came,” he said. The €489m went across to NAMA and NAMA assembled a portfolio with €352m of this debt, naming it Project Nantes. The three boys went off to America to find someone to put up the money and found a company called Clairvue. They then set up a shell company in Luxembourg called Clairvue Nantes and installed another director of Avestus, Mark Donnelly, as a director of the Luxembourg company. He had been a director of Avestus since 2010 and became a director of Clairvue in 2012,” he said. The company bought Project Nantes for €26.6m, with a discount bringing the price to under 10% of the original value. This sale is in breach of the NAMA Act for multiple reasons. It was off-market, at a knock-down price and, worst of all, the purchaser was connected to the debtor which is illegal under section 172 of the NAMA Act

Nama probably failed to get the best price for a batch of loans linked to financier Derek Quinlan's boom-era property empire and failed to properly document its processes, according to a damning report from the Comptroller and Auditor General (C&AG). "It is difficult to conclude that Nama secured the best possible price for the sale of the Project Nantes loans," the report said. It also found fault with the sale process, including a decision by Nama not to seek independent valuation advice in line with its own stated best practice.
