October 22-24, 2008,
EURANDOM, Eindhoven, The Netherlands

Programme & Abstracts| Registration | Practical Information


SUMMARY

ABSs are notes based on pools of assets, or collateralized by the cash flows from a specified pool of underlying assets. On the side of the originator one of the most important features behind “securitization” is the separation between the collateral (the underlying asset pool) and the originator. In recent years with the advent of Basel II, the efficient use of capital and the integration of the European capital market, the European securitization market has increased significantly.
This workshop will focus on the handling and the modelling of Asset- Backed Securities. Special attention will be paid to rating models and some recent developments in the credit risk world.

This workshop is part of the EIB funded project "Quantitative analysis and analytical methods to price securitization deals".
