mortgage backed bond

Definition

Bond secured by a lien on the bond issuer's assets and payable from the issuer's income. Unlike a mortgage backed pass-through security (which conveys an ownership right), these bonds instead offer a more predictable maturity and, thus, a type of call protection against the bond's early redemption.
