There is no competitive vendor or regulatory agency that provides this information. Harrison Scott Publications (HSP) has exclusive publishing rights to weekly newsletter subscriptions in the real estate, finance, and investment fields.� HSP is an independent news organization owned and managed by journalists.� Of these publications, OFR requires Commercial Mortgage Alert (CMA) and Asset-Backed Alert (ABA). Commercial Mortgage Alert provides access to The CMBS Database, which captures the pricing, key terms and participants for every CMBS issue in the world. The database, compiled by the editors of Commercial Mortgage Alert, is the only comprehensive listing of public and private CMBS issues.� The CMBS Database captures the initial terms of all rated securities collateralized by commercial and multi-family properties. It covers issues from the inception of the CMBS market in the mid-1980s through the end of the previous week. Asset-Backed Alert provides access to The ABS Database, which captures information on all asset- and mortgage-backed securities sold worldwide. The database, compiled by the editors of Asset-Backed Alert, is the only comprehensive listing of public and private securitizations -- including collateralized debt obligations.� ABA also presents the initial terms of all rated asset-backed issues, mortgage-backed issues and collateralized debt obligations placed anywhere in the world. The database contains more than 26,000 deals and identifies the primary participants in each transaction. The OFR and FSOC currently use the proposed contractor�s brand name product for the qFSI monitor and annual report content pursuant to its mission to deliver an annual assessment of the state of the U.S. financial system, as required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. � The period of performance for the purchase order is anticipated to be one 12-month base period with one 12-month option.
