ABS and CLO arrangers discuss pricing, transparency and issuance trends, including the impact of regulatory initiatives on volumes and prices.

11:45 Two parallel streams to choose from:

Stream 1: MANAGING RISK: BUY-SIDE STRATEGIES
Regulatory and counterparty risk concerns persist for buy-side firms. How are risk managers reacting and who are the innovators in managing and pricing these risks? Many buy side firms choose to co-purchase with a partner when buying bank assets: how is the counterparty chosen and the associated risks calculated?

Stream 2: WORKSHOP - THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS : AN IN-DEPTH UNDERSTANDING TO VALUING NON-AGENCY RMBS AND CLOs
The 2013 regulatory environment is putting increased pressure on valuations for structured products, namely Non-Agency RMBS and CLOs. Even the underlying collateral, such as leveraged loans, has gained more attention from the regulators. Not only is the final price under greater scrutiny, financial firms will now be required to defend their pricing methodologies on harder-to-price securities. Join Bloomberg for an in-depth look at relative value models for structured products to provide transparency and defensibility into an evaluated price
