Asset-Backed Trading

The asset-backed securities (ABS) trading desk is a fully dedicated unit specializing in credit-sensitive asset and real estate-backed securities. These products include private label CMBS Franchise, home equity, sub-prime, manufactured housing, residential subordinates, credit card, aircraft, auto and other receivables. Guggenheim carved out a niche by focusing its ABS efforts on illiquid securities, which require significant amounts of research and evaluation.
