When securitization was done properly and responsibly, it was a tremendous boon to the credit markets in many sectors from mortgages to credit cards to car loans and the rest. That's all integral to US economic growth in recent decades. The trick is, when the markets step in to match up capital with a need for capital, it has to be regulated and controlled to insure that greed doesn't erase the normal market constraints imposed by risk. Very nicely stated. I am hoping that the catastrophic losses suffered by investors end up providing discipline for the markets, but it would be nice to have some well designed regulations in case that doesnt happen.
