2.26 Ark. Code R. 51-440
Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 10, October, 2024
A new type of statutory entity called a financial asset securitization investment trust (FASIT) has been created to facilitate the securitization of debt obligations such as credit card receivables, home equity loans, and auto loans. An entity that qualifies as a FASIT can issue instruments that are treated as debt for Federal income tax purposes (and interest on which is therefore deductible) whether or not they would be so treated under normal tax principles. In addition, a FASIT itself generally isn't taxable, and any taxable income or net loss which it has (after taking into account deductions for interest on the debt) flows through to the equity owner of the FASIT.
