Participate in MBA CMBS Risk Retention Implementation Working Group

The Dodd-Frank Act requires five percent risk retention for structured securities including commercial mortgage-backed securities.  

Risk retention will be required for CMBS starting December 24, 2016. While this date remains more than a year away, the risk retention rule will introduce changes to the CMBS market that may have broad ramifications, so MBA is forming a CMBS Risk Retention Implementation Working Group to address these issues. The Working Group will identify, examine and address CMBS market challenges associated with the implementation of risk retention. The Working Group’s first conference will be held in the near future.

If you would like to participate on the Working Group, contact MBA Associate Vice President George Green at ggreen@mba.org or 202-557-2840.
