Credit enhancements in a securitization

INTERNAL enhancements include subordination (a feature of tranching; a senior tranche is protected by subordinate tranches), overcollateralization (which includes direct equity, holdback and cash collateral account) and an excess spread. EXTERNAL refers to enhancement provided by banks outside the structure (e.g., letter of credit) or counterparties outside the structure (e.g., basket credit default swap)

By the way, the main point is that allowing this non-work way to make money proliferate is what kills civilizations.

People trading this crap and making money while producing absolutely nothing useful.

Imagine that! A know-it-all internet tard with no children!

I bet you are European.

@jizzmonger I was pointing out that you have a very "freshmen finance community college" way of looking at real financial information. Keep you trap shut more often and you'll look like less of a fool.

I do not have children.

Look at the time stamp on my comment. Since that time, I have become a millionaire and am currently dating your daughter, both of them in fact.

This system was developed to avoid regulation.

All this complexity to mask the fact that they are buying loans and then using the loans as collateral to buy more loans.
