medium · Asset-Backed Securities

In a two-step auto-loan securitization, the originator first sells receivables to a bankruptcy-remote depositor in a transaction intended as a true sale. The depositor then transfers the receivables to the issuing trust.

What is the principal legal purpose of this arrangement?

  1. To prevent financial reporting consolidation through the use of two separate transferees
  2. To permit fixed- and floating-rate notes through the use of separate issuing entities
  3. To convert auto receivables into qualified mortgages through a REMIC tax election
  4. To isolate assets through the originator-to-depositor true sale before issuer transfer
