Recommendation

Structured finance markets, consisting of complex collateralized securities, shrank in issuance volumes in 2016, due largely to declines in the United States. But the downdraft did not cover all geographies or product lines. Investment professionals at S&P Global Market Intelligence dissect and scrutinize global structured finance markets’ 2016 performance and 2017 prospects. getAbstract recommends their robust analysis to investors and market participants interested in assessing the condition of the world’s securitization markets.

Take-Aways

  • In 2016, the global issuance volume of structured finance instruments fell 5% from its 2015 levels, to $652 billion.
  • An environment of continuing low interest rates and evolving regulatory pressures contributed to the decline.
  • The United States, the leading structured finance market by far, saw its totals drop by 15%. But other markets, such as Europe, China and Japan, fared better, with increases in total activity.
