The ABS - SPV, or Special Purpose Vehicle consists of Non-Bank Structured Finance Vehicle entities created by corporations that are used for a specific purpose to finance an investment with limited liability.
Collateralisation is the process of buying assets which are financed by asset backed securities, bonds or debt instruments backed by the value of those assets. This is different from securities that are linked to a credit, a commodity, an equity or a foreign exchange or baskets and or hybrids thereof. These instruments are not classified at the entity level but at the instrument level by their Category.
