An Auto Lease ABS pool and an Auto Loan ABS pool both have an expected 2.0% credit loss rate.

  1. Lease pools include residual value risk in addition to credit risk
  2. Lease pools are less diversified by geography
  3. Lease payments are legally easier to discharge in bankruptcy
  4. Auto leases have higher prepayment sensitivity to interest rates
