As business expands the need for various types for finance also increases.
Financial institutions throughout the world are raising their resources, in the
money market, capital market and debt instrument market. Governments are
raising their finances by issuing various types of instruments. Thus, Securitization
is a new concept by which financial institutions are able to acquire additional
resources by using their existing long-term assets.
When banks and financial institutions provide long-term loans, the interest
earned from them over a period. of time may decline due to the floating rate
of interest. By way of Hedge, i.e., an insurance against the risk of declining
interest rate, against these long-term assets, credit instruments are issued in the
market for a lesser rate of interest and additional funds are added. The funds
raised by the sale of the debt instruments such as CoD (Certificate of Deposits)
will be utilized for providing short-term or medium-term loans.
For example, the housing loan may be collected with principal and interest
and fi.om its collection, debt instruments such as certificate of deposits will be
met.
