Two classes of notes issued by Bleecker Structured Asset Fund Ltd., and supported in part by residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, have been downgraded by Fitch Ratings.Classes A-1 and A-2 were downgraded from B-plus to B-minus. The transaction is a collateralized debt obligation supported by asset-backed securities, RMBS, and CMBS. "The rating actions are a result of continued deterioration in the credit quality of Bleecker's collateral pool and the continued negative impact of its interest rate hedge," Fitch said.
