Lower Tier Regular Interests Clause Samples

The "Lower Tier Regular Interests" clause defines a specific class of interests or securities within a structured finance transaction, typically representing claims on cash flows that are subordinate to higher-tier or senior interests. In practice, these lower-tier interests receive payments only after obligations to senior tranches have been met, and they may be subject to greater risk of loss if the underlying assets underperform. This clause is essential for allocating risk and return among different classes of investors, ensuring that losses are absorbed in a predetermined order and providing clarity on the payment hierarchy within the structure.
