Redwood Investments concentrates on retained interests from its own securitizations, and Legacy Investments holds non-core assets being run off or sold.
The company highlights significant risks from interest-rate volatility, credit losses, regulation (including evolving treatment of Home Equity Investments), competition from government-backed entities, leverage and margin calls, cybersecurity, and changing economic and housing conditions.
