When the final rule came out, Redwood Trust backed...
Beach Point Capital Management early next week will issue a roughly $75 million MBS collateralized by nonprime mortgages that were originated over the past year by Citadel Loan Servicing, Irvine, CA, according to officials briefed on the transaction.
