How does 'Subordination' create credit enhancement in a multi-class auto ABS?
- Losses are allocated 'bottom-up', meaning the junior-most class is wiped out before the senior classes experience any loss of principal.
- Junior classes receive their interest payments before senior classes to provide a cushion for the senior coupons.
- The originator is required to buy back any loans that the junior bondholders find unacceptable.
- It requires the servicer to advance their own cash to cover any missed payments by borrowers.
