Which of the following most accurately describes the term "securitizing a mortgage"?

A)
 Selling shares of one mortgage to other investors.
B)
 Including a mortgage in a pool of mortgages that is used as collateral for a mortgage passthrough security.
C)
 Selling an entire mortgage to another investor.


A mortgage passthrough security represents a claim against a pool of mortgages. Any number of mortgages may be used to form the pool, and any mortgage included in the pool is referred to as a securitized mortgage. Passthrough securities may be traded in the secondary market, and, as such they effectively convert illiquid mortgages into liquid securities. This process is called securitization.
