What is Securitization?

Securitization is the ability to bundle a group of assets (aka loans) into securities that can be sold to investors.  There are several benefits to the financial institution of turning loan assets into marketable securities:

  • Lower Capital Requirements – Some entities due to legal or regulatory requirements need to limit the amount of capital. Securitization moves those assets “off-balance-sheet”.
  • Liquidity – Assets that would have potentially taken years to generate cash flow can now be done as a lump sum in a short period of time. This in turn frees up capital and generates a new financing source instead of using the standard financial institutions to borrower against.
  • Increased Credit Rating – By removing those receivables off the balance sheet, this may help raise the institution’s credit rating, thus allowing it to borrow funds at a lower rate. In essence, the institution is transferring the potential default risk to the investors.
  • Fee Income - By moving the accounts off the balance sheet, interest income is now being replaced as fee income when servicing those loans for the investors.

How Does it Benefit You?

The securities involved in a securitization are split into tranches where the assets share similar qualities with one another (interest rate, loan classification, etc.). Tranches can carry different risks and exposure within a portfolio.

For the investor, there are several benefits for them participating in securitization, here are a couple:

  • Higher Rate of Return – There is a greater chance of having a higher rate of return on revenue generating assets.
  • Portfolio Diversity – Allows investors to diversify their portfolio and gain access to high quality assets that they normally could not invest in.
