NOTE 14 SECURED BORROWINGS – OWED TO SECURITIZATION INVESTORS


Secured borrowings – owed to securitization investors of $53,323 and $62,705 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, consist of certificates that represent beneficial ownership interests in four securitization trusts that we include in our consolidated financial statements, as more fully described in Note 1—Securitizations of Residential Mortgage Loans. The holders of these certificates have no recourse against the assets of Ocwen.


The trusts consist principally of mortgage loans that are secured by first and second liens on one-to-four-family residential properties. Except for the residuals, the certificates generally pay interest based on 1-Month LIBOR plus a margin of from 8 to 250 basis points. Interest rates on the certificates are generally capped at the weighted average of the net mortgage rates of the mortgage loans in the respective loan pools.
