CRE CDO: Collateral composition

by Angus Duncan, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft

The European CRE CDO market launched in December 2006 with BlackRock’s Anthracite Euro CRE CDO I, arranged by Morgan Stanley. Collateral constituted a range of commercial real estate assets, including CMBS, B notes, C notes and mezzanine loans.
