Because asset-backed securities represent rights to future cash flow from the underlying collateral, they offer investors the benefits of high credit quality as well as yield enhancement. Our company has led the market in securitizing assets including mortgages, home equity loans, credit card receivables, trade receivables and auto loans through structures such as bonds, notes, commercial paper, Euronotes, Eurobonds, certificates of deposit, pass-through and pay-through securities and property income certificates. We also serve as trustee, registrar and paying agents on the securities.
