Introduction

Welcome to the Survey ' Market Awareness of MDB Securitisation'!

Your participation is much appreciated!

This 3-minute survey seeks to gauge market awareness of securitisation by MDBs.

All responses will be treated confidentially, and findings will be published on an aggregated basis.

The survey will contribute to a research project by Risk Control on MDB securitisation for the UK and Swiss Governments.

A public report will be published in September 2026.

Summary survey findings will be shared with all respondents.
