Aug 22 (Reuters) - Problems in raising short-term funding
have thrown the spotlight on the asset-backed commercial paper
(ABCP) conduits set up in Europe by banks, mostly to invest in
longer-term high-quality securities.
Germany's IKB (IKBG.DE) and Sachsen LB have had to raise
emergency loan packages after their conduits ran into trouble.
British bank HBOS HBOS.L on Tuesday said it would repay
maturing ABCP under its Grampian programme rather than pay
unacceptable funding costs.
The following is a list of outstanding bank conduits rated
by Moody's Investors Service, with ABCP issued as of the end of
May 2007:
