PCS launches a new label for risk transfer/synthetic securitisations

23 February 2017

PCS launched its new label to be awarded to risk transfer instruments that meet all the criteria devised by the PCS Association to identify the key elements for a simple, transparent and standardised instrument.

PCS hopes that its new label will help support the market by assisting both protection buyers and investors through standardisation and added transparency. It also hopes to contribute to a debate that may end in a new, better regulatory regime for this key European market based on a bifurcated treatment of risk transfer securitisations based on key simplicity, transparency and standardisation criteria.
