Our example confirms these considerations (see Figure I(b), Appendix I)74. In the FLE method, the tranche retainer sells the tranche at a discount. Due to the waterfall payment structure of securitizations, this means that the return function for the retainer exhibits kinks.

If losses exceed the size of the equity tranche, the subsequent losses are borne again solely by the retainer up until 5% of the next tranche, and so on. Thus, the return profiles of the retainer and investor differ substantially (see F5 i%g uorfe t hI (ec )s,eAc uprpi et inz da ti xi o In fionr t ha ne eeqx ua mi t yp tl er a) .nIcnh et h.
