Guide to the Law of Securitisation - 4th Edition

Key Points:

Australia has one of the world's most active securitisation markets. Over A$160 billion of securities are outstanding and the market is growing at the rate of 23% per annum. Almost all major issuers have established Euro and Global MBS programs and Australia is now reputed to have the second largest MBS market in the world. Australia is also an exporter of its securitisation expertise, with a number of prominent, domestically-based investment banks arranging and structuring securitisation transactions in Asia and New Zealand.

The law plays a pivotal role in the structure and regulation of many securitisation programs. To succeed in today's environment, a securitiser needs an understanding of the key aspects of the law relating to securitisation. As a result, Clayton Utz has published a fourth edition of the booklet, "The Guide to the Law of Securitisation in Australia", which gives you an overview of the law affecting this exciting and growing sector of the financial services market.
