Our research approach to structured credit consists of the analysis and monitoring of underlying collateral, transaction structure, underwriting quality and macroeconomic factors. Our analysts are responsible for evaluating the attractiveness of securities, estimating expected cash flows and maintaining an internal rating for each security held in a client portfolio. Our analysts also maintain comprehensive views on the credit profiles and trends in covered subsectors. We regularly assess creditworthiness while a security is held in any client portfolio.
