Synopsis

A step-by-step guide to implementing and closing securitization transactions

Securitization is still in wide use despite the reduction in transactions. The reality is that investors and institutions continue to use this vehicle for raising funds and the demand for their use will continue to rise as the world's capital needs increase.

The Mechanics of Securitization specifically analyzes and describes the process by which a bank successfully implements and closes a securitization transaction in the post subprime era. This book begins with an introduction to asset-backed securities and takes you through the historical impact of these transactions including the implications of the recent credit crisis and how the market has changed.

• Discusses, in great detail, rating agency reviews, liaising with third parties, marketing the deals, and securing investors
• Reviews due diligence and cash flow analysis techniques
• Examines credit and cash considerations as well as how to list and close deals
• Describes the process by which a bank will structure and implement the deal, and how the process is project managed and tested across internal bank departments

While securitization transactions have been taking place for over twenty-five years, there is still a lack of information on exactly how they are processed successfully. This book will put you in a better position to understand how it all happens, and show you how to effectively implement an ABS transaction yourself.

From the Back Cover

THE MECHANICS OF SECURITIZATION

Securitization is a well-established practice in the global debt capital markets. And while the market in structured finance securities was hit hard by the 2007–2008 financial crisis―when investors shunned asset-backed securities―interest in securitization has resumed as the global economy recovers.

The Mechanics of Securitization is an accessible and practitioner-oriented look into what is required to successfully structure and close asset-backed security transactions in today’s complex financial markets. The text is aimed at practitioners in structured finance who are involved with originating, structuring, or arranging securitization transactions. It addresses the necessary tasks for commercial banks that are interested in closing a securitization of assets off their own balance sheet or a third-party balance sheet―whether these assets are corporate loans, mortgages, credit card loans, or other more esoteric “future flow” cash receivables.

The text is aimed at providing a step-by-step guide to the process undertaken to arrange, structure, and close a securitization deal, and includes insights on the rating agency and legal review requirements. The template used applies to cash transactions in asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities, and corporate loan deals. Details of a cash flow waterfall model are also discussed. Using an actual securitization transaction as its background, the book also features a series of checklists and pro forma documents to illustrate the process of structuring a typical loan ABS or CLO transaction.
