Ms Joshua Yablonski
Work Department
Structured Finance and Securitization
Position
Joshua Yablonski offers large banks and other clients extensive experience in transactions involving commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). He coordinates all facets of the loan-to-securitization process, building relationships of trust with his clients as well as a detailed knowledge of their documents and procedures. Josh is also a valued resource on transactions involving a variety of asset types, frequently designing innovative deals that are new to his clients or the market at large.
Josh guides a variety of clients through structured finance transactions, with the experience to close deals efficiently and effectively. He assists loan sellers, issuers and underwriters with public and private offerings of CMBS. Additionally, he advises purchasers and servicers of asset-backed securities, warehouse facilities and commercial paper. Lenders also turn to him to help with loan originations and sales.
Comfortable working with various asset types and deal structures, Josh often helps clients identify innovative deal structures to meet their goals. He handled the first Regulation AB II offering of a CMBS for the issuer on the transaction. Clients also trust Josh to steer them through transaction types that they do not handle regularly. Recently, for instance, he helped a client close its first “re-REMIC” in a decade, and conducted due diligence on a type of CLO deal that another client hadn’t seen in just as long.
Career
Prior to joining Katten, Josh was a CMBS attorney at Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft LLP.
