THE NATIONAL Asset Management Agency is believed to have lined up a receiver to take control of assets at Treasury Holdings today if an agreement is not reached on the repayment of the developer’s loans by this afternoon.
Nama has set a 4pm deadline today for Treasury to repay its near €900 million loans to the state agency.
It is understood that accounting firm Ernst Young has been lined up by Nama to take charge of the assets involved if no arrangement has been reached with Treasury by the deadline.
Ernst Young was last month appointed by Lloyds Bank in the UK and Nama as administrator to Battersea Power Station in London, one of Treasury’s most prized assets.
Battersea will shortly be put up for sale.

This Friday we’re having a Tweet-Up and we’ve just confirmed a wonderful special guest – George Mordaunt, author of “Shepherd’s Pie”.
The venue has been provided free of charge courtesy of The County Arms Hotel, Birr, Co. Offaly – a location that businesses from across the island can reach. We would really be grateful if you could include a mention on Broadsheet as we’ve got a great cross-section of Irish SMEs attending and to date our local Tweet-Ups have proven enormously successful.
