Welcome
Dear Structured Finance Executive,
On behalf of the European Securitisation Forum (ESF) and the European Covered Bond Dealers Association (ECBDA), we are pleased to introduce these timely evening seminars focusing on the Spanish markets. Conveniently held over two evenings at Madrid's famous Instituto de Bursátiles, both seminars will cover key issues, including:
- What are the key variables to consider when buying Spanish securitisations or cedulas?
- Which specific Spanish transactions or asset classes offer more relative value post credit crunch?
- How we can improve market liquidity?
You will get the answer to these questions and many more at these intensive discussion forums, focusing on the relative value now offered by some ABS transactions and cedulas, compared with other fixed income asset classes. Recent spread compression in the rest of fixed income products makes securitisations attractive again. Come and find out whether this is sustainable in the long term, whilst gaining a deeper understanding of the risks involved, as well as trends for defaults and pre-payments in the Spanish securitisation markets.
The seminars consists of three panel sessions, each lasting for 50 minutes followed by 10 minutes of Q&A. At the end of each evening, delegates will be able to continue the debate in an informal environment over tapas and drinks.
Don't forget that ESF and ECBDA members get special discounts! Click HERE for more information
We look forward to meeting you personally in November
Yours faithfully
