The results reveal a robust growth in overall, with a significant increase of 200?'0 in 2003. Furthermore, Islamic ABS was introduced in 2003, and their issuance size in 2005 was worth RM5.2 billion, thus surpassing the Conventional ABS with an issuance value of RM4.2 billion. We also consider company performance, specifically on the originator perspective, and focus on the cormmercial property sector. The results reveal that after securitizing their assets, the originators manage a reduction in debt obligations and an enhancement in earning capacities.
