Thirty tranches from five subprime mortgage deals issued by Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust in 2005 have been downgraded by Moody's Investors Service, and eight tranches have been placed under review for possible downgrade. The actions were based on the fact that the number of seriously delinquent loans in the pools continues to grow for all five transactions, Moody's said. "In addition, pending stepdown on some of the transactions may make certain securities more vulnerable to pool deterioration in the future," the rating agency said. The deals are backed by first- and second-lien subprime mortgage loans.
