Dear
Structured Finance Professional:
On behalf of Information Management Network (IMN), I would
like to inform you of our Seventh Annual Investors' &
Issuers' Summit on Asset Securitisation (ABS East 2001)
to be held in Paradise Island, Bahamas, on October 2nd-5th,
2001 (Tuesday-Friday) at the Atlantis Resort and Spa, a
classic five-star resort fronting the Caribbean Sea.
ABS East is the leading ABS conference in the industry.
Last year's Bahamas event had record attendance
with over 1,700 delegates and over 90 corporate sponsors/exhibitors
representing all facets of the ABS community. Moving in
lockstep with the explosive growth of ABS issuance year-to-date,
ABS East Bahamas 2001 is anticipated to break all prior
records both in terms of number of attendees and number
of corporate sponsors. With the turbulence in the equity
markets, changing supply/demand dynamics, new regulatory
and accounting standards and new asset types under review
for securitization, this year's event will prove to be the
most beneficial yet to issuers, investors, bankers and intermediaries
alike.
Topics to be covered this year include: New
Asset Types Under Review for Securitization; Prospects for
Improved Disclosure and Transparency; The Influence of Regulatory
and Legal Changes in Fueling Growth; Identifying Risks on
the Horizon; Building a Winning ABS/MBS Portfolio; Uncovering
Relative Value Within the Public and Private/144A Market;
Current Trends and Structural Developments in Consumer Asset
Classes including:
Mortgage Related ABS, Credit Cards, Student Loans and Retail
Auto Securitization; The Impact of Increasing Consumer Debt
on the ABS Market; Understanding
the Risks Inherent in Middle Market/Sub-Prime Lending; Uncovering
Relative Value In Emerging and Niche Asset Classes. In addition
to the previously mentioned topics, sessions addressing
the Secondary Market for ABS, the Subordinate Market for
ABS, Franchise Loans, Small and Large Ticket Equipment Leases,
Aircraft Securitization, CBO's/CLO's, Regulatory Assets, Cat Bonds, Intellectual Property,
Export Receivables, Business Loan & Commercial Loan Securitization, Credit Derivatives and
Synthetic Securitization, Whole of Business Securitization, Structured Investment
Vehicles, and Municipal Taxable
Securitization are slated for this year's conference.
It would be both an honor and a privilege to have you joining
us in the Bahamas. In order to secure a hotel room at the
Atlantis, please call the hotel direct at +242-363-3000
or +800-FUN-4-SUN (386-4786) any time after Monday 7th
May, 9am Eastern standard time (when bookings for the
event open). When making your reservation be sure to mention
