Delinquencies on subprime auto ABS are rising, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. But S&P Global Ratings said the situation may not be as bad as the Fed suggests.

LendingClub, which operates an online marketplace, recently issued its first consumer loan-backed ABS of the year. The loans were originated under a model that has been successfully challenged in certain courts, raising concerns from rating agencies.

In a first, Connecticut Green Bank will issue an ABS backed by solar renewable energy credits. The $38.6 million deal from the nation’s first green bank could provide proof of concept for future issuance.

GM Financial’s new auto lease securitization deal is weighted toward shorter-term maturities, likely to combat volatility in the auto market, such as falling prices of used cars.

Securitizations backed by oil and gas royalties likely will be issued this year, according to Fitch Ratings. The agency updated its future flow securitization rating criteria last week in anticipation of such ABS issuance.
