On the other hand, the mentioned structured products supplied capital to subprime segment, increasing the amount of non-conforming loans and hence the risk level in the global financial sector. Because CDO played significant role in the credit risk proliferating and generation of enormous losses among biggest investment and commercial banks, the aim of this paper is to present the idea, nature and mode of functioning of CDO. Also, the paper describes the CDO market in terms of world financial crisis.
