IMN's ABS East Conference 2013 will return on October 6-8, 2013 for one of the most important industry conferences focused on the securitization market. A delegation of nearly 3000 structured finance and securitization professionals gathered in Miami for the 2012 conference - including 100+ event sponsors who represent the leaders in the securitization market; and more than 1000 issuers and investors - to discuss the revival and strengthening of the US securitization market. The ABS East 2013 Conference will continue this trend, inviting key market participants – regulators, government officials and all private sector participants – to come together to discuss what our markets should look like in the future, given the importance of securitization to the real economy.
