Bond insurance companies are being monitored by a number of investment firms to make sure they can sustain any loss brought about by collateralized debt obligations with high-risk mortgage-backed securities. Issuers and borrowers should examine bond transactions that are tax-exempt as a precautionary measure in case a downgrade occurs. It is also important in examining agreements entered into by issuers and in case there is a need in changing credit and liquidity support bonds secured by a letter of credit. Non-profit organizations that are classified as bond issuers or conduit borrowers should take note of this issue so that preventive measures may be taken if necessary.

The Knowledge Congress has assembled a panel of experts in the field of banking and finance as well as key regulators to discuss the factual issues that are relevant to this topic. The speakers will discuss their views and findings, which will include "Best Practices" in a two-hour teleconference and webinar.
