New Century Financial Corp. does not intend to issue a securitization from its REIT portfolio during the quarter, Brad Morrice, the company's president and chief operating officer said last week during the lender's third quarter earnings conference call. The Irvine, Calif.-based subprime lender will instead sell the majority of its loans to the secondary market, although it may utilize off-balance sheet securitizations through its taxable REIT subsidiary.

As participants in the credit card ABS market anxiously watch trust performance in the wake of the recently enacted bankruptcy reform, several credit card issuers have given guidance on where they think charge-offs are headed. For now, the consensus still seems to be that the trusts will experience an increase in chargeoffs through the end of the year, followed by a return to normal levels in 1Q06. Meanwhile, issuers, analysts and rating agencies alike still believe most trusts have adequate excess spread to absorb the spike in chargeoffs.
