Asset-Backed Bond

    0.01 sec.
Asset-Backed Bond
A bond in which the coupons are guaranteed by the receivables on some liability owed to the issuer. For example, a mortgage-backed security is a debt security in which the holder lends money (the price of the security) to the issuer in exchange for the right to the receivables on the mortgages underlying the security. In other words, an asset-backed bond is a security structured in a way that the issuer sells the rights to receive some debt the issuer is owed. See also: Sukuk.

Asset-backed bond. Asset-backed bonds, also known as asset-backed securities, are secured by loans or by money owed to a company for merchandise or services purchased on credit.

For example, an asset-backed bond is created when a securities firm bundles debt, such as credit card or car loans, and sells investors the right to receive the payments made on those loans.
