The FDIC proposed that private securitization will no longer require the same loan disclosure agreements as bank-issued private RMBS, as reported by International Finance Review today.

 

Said Senior Portfolio Manager Jake Remley, of Income Research + Management, “I’m not sure it would change the investment opportunity tremendously.
