SFA Research Corner: The Electric Vehicle Market Charges Up

Provided by Structured Finance Association

Car manufacturers have been adding full-electric and hybrid electric vehicles (EV) to their lineup to comply with global environmental regulations and to meet rising consumer demand. Pledges by major automakers to become fully electric as well as recent proposals from the Biden administration and lawmakers have the potential to meaningfully boost U.S. sales. For securitization, this could lead to an increase in stand-alone green auto ABS offerings or designated green buckets in traditional auto ABS deals, both of which would be welcomed by ESG investors.
