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.

The financial crisis of 2007-2008 has discredited business models in the banking and fund management industries. In The Future of Finance, Moorad Choudhry and Gino Landuyt argue that banks must realign their business models, implying a lower return-on-equity; diversifying their funding sources; and increasing liquidity reserves. On the investment side, the authors discuss how diversification did not reduce risk, but rather amplified it, and failed to stabilize returns. The authors conclude that the clear lesson from the crisis is to know one's risk. A lesson that is best served by concentrating on assets and sectors that you understand.
- Examines the weaknesses in the business models of many institutions, as well as the theoretical foundation for professionals in the field of finance
- Identifies the shortcomings of Modern Portfolio Theory
- Addresses how investment managers can find new strategies for creating "alpha" and why they need to re-vamp their fee structures
Filled with in-depth insights and practical advice, The Future of Finance will provide bankers and investment managers with a guide to realigning their businesses in order to prosper in the post-crisis financial markets.
