Nominee Slate Announced 02/01/2008 01:28 PM

The nominees for the fourth annual U.S. Securitization awards are out. The securitization market is still reeling from the subprime debacle, but there are still some bright spots and fine performances to be heralded. After considerable polling and consultation with market players, Total Securitization has come up with a slate of 39 nominees over 12 categories. Added to the list of categories this year is an award for best research team. Lopped from the list are the mortgage-backed securities sector awards, as nominees in that sector were basically nonexistent. To see who made the cut, check the links below.
