COLLATERALIZED DEBT OBLIGATION MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global collateralized debt obligation market size was projected at USD 30.42 billion in 2024 and is expected to hit USD 67.49 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 9.26% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

A Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO) is a synthetic financial product made up of a number of loans that have been packaged and are offered for sale in the market by the lender. The original borrower may, in theory, be required to pay back the borrowed sum to the holder of the collateralized debt obligation at the conclusion of the loan term. Due to the fact that the price of a collateralized debt obligation (CDO) (at least conceptually) depends on the price of another asset, CDOs are a sort of derivative security.

Banks are able to lower the amount of risk they have on their balance sheet by using collateralized loan obligations. Most banks are required to retain a specific amount of assets in reserve. This encourages the securitization and sale of assets because it is expensive for banks to maintain assets in reserves. Banks can turn a single bond or loan, which is generally illiquid, into a very liquid instrument by using collateralized debt obligations. The pool may contain corporate bonds, government bonds, and assets backed by mortgages. CBOs are frequently utilized as interest rate risk protection.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Halt On Manufacturing Operations To Slower Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with collateralized debt obligation experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

The three primary ways that COVID-19 can have an impact on the world economy are by directly altering supply and demand, by disrupting the collateralized debt obligation market and supply chain, and by having an economic impact on businesses and financial markets.

DRIVING FACTORS

Demand for Alternative Investment Products to Facilitate Market Development

The demand for alternative investment products is on the rise, there are more investable funds available, and there is more liquidity in the international financial markets, all of which contribute to the market expansion. Additionally, the industry is expanding due to the increasing use of CDOs by asset management companies and fund managers. An example of an asset-backed structured instrument is a collateralized debt obligation (CDO) (ABS). The creation of CDOs involves pooling several kinds of debt obligations and then dividing the resulting tranches. Each level in a tranche is distinct. Each tranche has a variable risk threshold, with higher-risk tranches yield higher returns. A CDO may be collateralized by bonds or loans.

Rise in Volume of Foreign Exchange Trade to Promote Industry Progress

The volume of foreign exchange (FX) trading has significantly increased, which is largely what is driving the global collateralized debt obligation market. The average trading volume that clients invest in has significantly increased, and these factors have had a beneficial impact on collateralized debt obligation market growth. Along with the use of sophisticated structuring, pricing, and pre-trade analytics tools for the precise appraisal of the deal, increased consumer preference for peer-to-peer lending and cryptocurrencies is driving the market's expansion. The amount of FX (foreign exchange) trading has surged as a result of the recent sharp rise in the number of participants in the forex market. Due to the role non-dealers played in the increase of the net-net daily average of forex trading volume, the market for execution platforms and services has grown. The prime brokerage service came next, which increased the number of prospective trading partners and gave consumers the option to trade using credit or their own names.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Higher Risk Premiums to Hinder Market Growth

The additional liquidity caused a house, credit card, and vehicle debt asset bubble. The cost of housing has increased well beyond its true value. People defaulting on their debt wasn't a concern for the banks that marketed the CDOs. Other investors who bought the debts from them afterward became the owners. They became less strict in upholding the strict lending rules as a result of that. Uncreditworthy borrowers were given loans by banks, which resulted in catastrophe. Investors demand a higher rate of return on their investments under uncertain circumstances by paying higher risk premiums. This means that during times when the central bank may lower its policy rate, which is the typical step performed when the economy slows down, the cost of lending may rise.
