In the latest episode of our “Securitisation Insights” podcast, Mudasar Chaudhry, who leads our European Structured Finance Research team, was joined by Miklos Halasz, Vice President, European ABS Ratings, Auto, and Andrew Lynch, Vice President, Sector Lead, European Structured Finance Ratings, Surveillance, to discuss the UK securitisation framework and the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) Consultation Paper CP 26/6 (CP 26/6 or the Consultation).

CP 26/6, published on 17 February 2026 and closed on 18 May, outlined proposals to simplify and streamline the rules governing UK securitisations. The Consultation was broad in scope, touching on investor due diligence, risk retention, cost savings, the public/private transparency divide, and loan-level reporting templates. 

In this episode, our analysts discuss what the proposed changes mean for credit analysis—across residential mortgage-backed securities, auto asset backed-securities, and collateralised loan obligations—and where we see improved transparency, as well as areas where it may be reduced.
