Ambiguity in Securitization Markets
Federal Reserve Board,
2015
Recommendation
As economies develop, debt plays an ever-greater role in supporting consumption and growth. Banks now rely heavily on selling the loans they extend, so hiccups in the securitization markets can lead to abrupt slowdowns in lending. Securitization was once an esoteric part of Wall Street, of interest only to financial types, but it’s now critical for the economy’s health. getAbstract recommends this innovative analysis by economist Alyssa G. Anderson on why securitization markets failed in 2008 and how to reduce the risk of a recurrence.
