Securitisation is a process of transformation of illiquid asset into security which may be traded later in the open market. It is the process of transformation of the assets of a lending institution into negotiable instruments. The term ‘securitisation’ refers to both switching away from bank intermediation to direct financing via capital market and/or money market, and the transformation of a pr eviously illiquid asset like automobile loans, mortgage loans, trade receivables, etc. into marketable instruments.
This is a method of recycling of funds . It is beneficial to financial intermediaries, as it helps in enhancing lending funds. Future receivables, EMIs and annuities are pooled together and transferred to an special purpose vehicle (SPV). These receivables of the future are shifted to mutual funds and bigger financial institutions. This process is similar to that of commercial banks seeking refinance with NABARD, IDBI, etc.
