What is securitization and examples?

Securitization is a financial process that involves bundling various financial assets or debts into a consolidated financial instrument, which is then issued to investors. Through this process, a company combines its diverse financial assets to create a single security, typically in the form of bonds or securities. Investors who purchase these securities receive interest payments in return for their investment.

This practice serves to enhance liquidity in the market by converting illiquid assets, such as mortgages or loans, into tradable securities. By pooling these assets together, companies can reduce risk and attract a broader range of investors. Securitization allows companies to free up capital that would otherwise be tied up in these assets, enabling them to pursue additional investments or expand their operations.

Examples of securitization include mortgage-backed securities (MBS), where mortgages are bundled together and sold to investors, and asset-backed securities (ABS), which are backed by various types of assets such as auto loans, credit card receivables, or student loans. These securities provide investors with opportunities to diversify their portfolios while providing issuers with a means of raising capital. Overall, securitization plays a significant role in financial markets by promoting liquidity and facilitating the efficient allocation of capital.
