The securitization is structured as a financing by Accredited with the result being that both the mortgage loans and the debt represented by the notes remain on Accredited’s balance sheet.

 

The REIT subsidiary used the proceeds from the securitization primarily to repay warehouse financing for the mortgage loans.

 

Co-lead managers for the transaction were Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse First Boston, with Barclays Capital and Goldman, Sachs & Co. acting as co-managers.
