First Franklin Subprime Classes Downgraded

Forty-six tranches in seven subprime transactions issued by First Franklin Mortgage Loan Trust have been downgraded by Moody's Investors Service. The downgrades were attributed to a growing proportion of severely delinquent loans. "Timing of losses and in some cases, pending stepdown, will cause the protection available to the subordinated bonds to be diminished," Moody's said. The collateral consists primarily of first-lien subprime mortgage loans.
