Technical notes

A structured entity is an entity that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who controls the entity, such as when any voting rights relate to administrative tasks only and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements.

 

A structured entity often has some or all the following features or attributes:

  • Restricted activities
  • A narrow and well-defined objective, such as to effect a tax-efficient lease, carry out research and development activities, provide a source of capital or funding to an entity or provide investment opportunities for investors by passing on risks and rewards associated with the assets of the structured entity to investors
  • Insufficient equity to permit the structured entity to finance its activities without subordinated financial support
  • Financing in the form of multiple contractually linked instruments to investors that create concentrations of credit or other risks (tranches)


Examples of entities that are regarded as structured entities include, but are not limited to:

  • Securitisation vehicles
  • Asset-backed financings
  • Some investment funds
