Bayview's Structured Finance Division provides structuring for long-term financing for our Company's core mortgage investment businesses, while delivering securitization services to other Bayview clients.
We have built a world-class securitization program with high-end, in-house, structured finance capabilities. In addition to providing a source of committed funding for our Company, we use our securitization program to generate long-term value for investors by:
We enhance our ability to meet these objectives by offering the i-View® Investor Resource tool, which gives our investors instant access to in-depth collateral analysis and reporting across Bayview's securitization portfolio.
Since Bayview affiliates own the equity classes of our securitizations, Bayview appoints its special servicer, Bayview Loan Servicing LLC, to service any credit impaired loans. Generally, we sell our primary servicing rights to M&T Bank.
Since 1998, Bayview affiliates have issued more than $27 billion of investment-grade asset-backed securities in the 144A and public investor markets.
Over that same period, our investor demographics have evolved significantly, growing from a base that was once primarily made up of domestic money managers to one that today includes a diverse mix of international and domestic banks, conduits, and insurance companies.
