Asset-Backed Securities Global Market Report 2024

The asset-backed securities market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2276.03 billion in 2023 to $2439.54 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The historical period's growth can be credited to the emergence of securitization as a financial practice, a stable economic environment with low-interest rates, the expansion of the mortgage market and increased housing demand, the establishment of credit rating agencies, and the growth of consumer credit markets.

The asset-backed securities market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3112.45 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to regulatory frameworks supporting securitization, a growing demand for diversified investment portfolios, the influence of digital assets and tokenization on asset-backed securities (ABS), an increased emphasis on ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) factors, and evolving demographics and consumer behavior. Prominent trends expected in the forecast period encompass financial innovation in structuring asset-backed securities, advancements in financial modeling technology, the integration of blockchain for enhanced transparency and efficiency, the adoption of machine learning and AI in ABS analytics, innovative approaches in risk-sharing structures for ABS, and the incorporation of real-time data in ABS valuation.

The anticipated growth in the asset-backed securities market is expected to be propelled by the increasing level of real estate activities. Real estate, encompassing land, buildings, and natural resources, spans various property types, including residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Asset-backed securities play a crucial role in the real estate sector by facilitating capital raising, risk management, and improved liquidity. For instance, as of 2023, Trading Economics reports a rise in the homeownership rate in the US, increasing from 65.90% in the fourth quarter of 2022 to 66% in the first quarter of 2023. Additionally, Realtor notes a 54.7% increase in homes for sale in December 2022 compared to the previous year. Consequently, the surge in real estate activities is a driving force behind the growth of the asset-backed securities market.

The growth of disposable income is anticipated to contribute to the expansion of the asset-backed securities market. Disposable income denotes the funds available to an individual or household for spending and saving after tax deductions from their total income. Increased disposable income generally results in borrowers having more resources to service their debts, reducing the likelihood of defaults in the ABS pool. This, in turn, leads to improved performance and higher returns for investors in the security. For example, a June 2022 report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis indicates a monthly climb of $113.4 billion, or 0.5%, in personal income in May 2022. Disposable personal income (DPI) also rose by $96.5 billion (0.5%). Thus, the growing disposable income is a significant factor driving the growth of the asset-backed securities market.


The emergence of asset-backed securities funds is a noteworthy trend gaining traction in the asset-backed securities market. Major players in the market are actively developing innovative services centered around asset-backed securities funds to reinforce their market standing.

This fund provides investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of high-quality floating-rate asset-backed securities, including mortgage-backed securities (MBS), asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP), and other such securities. Emphasizing high-quality assets with robust credit ratings, the fund invests across various maturities, from short-term to long-term. Furthermore, it outlines investment objectives, strategies, and associated risks, encompassing credit, market, and liquidity risks. This fund serves as an attractive option for investors seeking diversified exposure to high-quality floating-rate asset-backed securities.

For example, in January 2021, New Asset Exchange (NAX), a US-based software and services company, launched a platform specifically designed for establishing asset-backed products, ventures, and securities. NAX stands out for its innovative approach to introducing corporate asset-backed products, ventures, and securities, featuring software and methodologies tailored for the identification, creation, launch, and expansion of such assets in institutional trading. With specialized software for digital, micro, and platform services, along with cloud commerce capabilities, NAX enables swift market tests for fully compliant products, tradable securities, and marketplaces.
