STRUCTURED FINANCE & COLLATERALIZED DEBT OBLIGATIONS by Janet Tavakoli. Published by John Wiley & Sons, New Jersey. $90.00 Hardcover 6.5x9.5, 454 pages. Publication date: September 16, 2008. ISBN # 0470288949
Janet Tavakoli, president of Tavakoli Structured Finance, has released a new Structured Finance book with a comprehensive look at the structured credit products market amid the global credit meltdown. Tavakoli shares her expert experiences with collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), credit derivatives, mortgage loans, consumer loans, corporate debt, hedge funds, investment banks, bond insurers and the web of interactions that led us to the current credit crisis. Tavakoli explains the CDO arbitrage created by synthetics (the use of credit derivatives), the tranches (parts of CDOs) most at risk from the new technology, dumping securitizations on bank balance sheets, the abuse of offshore vehicles by companies, the role of hedge funds, critical issues with subprime, Alt-A and prime mortgage securitizations, and securitizations made possible by new securitization techniques with the Euro. While providing an overview of the market and its dynamic growth, Tavakoli takes the time to explore the types of products now offered, new hedging techniques, valuation and risk/return issues associated with investment in CDOs and synthetic CDOs, and the lack of effective regulation, rating, and management.
