Securitization

This article tries to explain what is securitization. Lets consider what a bank does? A bank gives loans to its borrowers. If it is a small bank we call it as a sub originator and this small bank transfers these loan to a bigger bank which is called as originator. Now, this originator can sell off this loans to a trust and get money. And this trust sells of these loans in form of bonds to various bond holders



Now this trust collects money from the bondholders and gives it to Originator. And now this originator can lend of this money to more borrowers. Selling off the loans to a trust is known as Securitization.
