Which of the following statements regarding factors considered by rating agencies in rating asset-backed securities is least accurate?

A)

The borrower's equity in an asset that has been offered as collateral is the primary determinant of whether the borrower will default or sell the asset to pay off the loan.

B)

A firm's credit rating must be less than or equal to its overall corporate rating.

C)

The servicer of the loan must be evaluated since the servicer is responsible for distributing proceeds to the bondholders, determining the interest rate for the period, and advancing payments when there are delinquencies.



If a firm has structured securitized assets so that, in the event of bankruptcy, the courts will not apply the cash flow from the collateral toward the satisfaction of general corporate liabilities, then it is possible to obtain a credit rating higher than its overall corporate rating.
