KBRA Releases Research – ABS East 2019 Recap

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) releases a recap of the ABS East conference held in Miami on September 22-24. The recap provides a brief summary LIBOR/SOFR-related panels as well as key takeaways from discussion with ABS, CLO, RMBS, and CMBS market participants.

Overall, the mood among attendees was optimistic as credit concerns remain subdued across the securitization market and a supportive Fed should keep recessionary worries in check. That said, the unprecedented length of the current business cycle, slowing global growth, an inverted yield curve, and ongoing U.S.-China trade tensions also cast a somewhat cautious tone at this year’s conference.
