Assets of Securitisers As at 31 March 2012, total assets of Australian securitisers were $128.0b, down $5.6b (4.2%) on 31 December 2011. During the March quarter 2012, the fall in total assets was due primarily to falls in residential mortgage loans (down $4.6b, 4.2%), cash and deposits (down $0.4b, 8.5%), other loans (down $0.2b, 1.8%) and long-term asset backed bonds (down $0.2b, 11.5%). Mortgage assets, which accounted for 84.7% of total assets, were $108.5b as at 31 March 2012, a fall of $4.6b (4.1%) during the quarter. Liabilities of Securitisers As at 31 March 2012, total liabilities of Australian securitisers were $128.0b, down $5.6b (4.2%) on 31 December 2011. The fall in total liabilities was due to falls in long-term asset backed securities issued in Australia (down $5.0b, 5.4%) and asset backed securities issued overseas (down $1.4b, 6.7%). These falls were partially offset by a rise in loans and placements ($0.8b, 9.8%). Asset backed securities issued overseas as a proportion of total liabilities fell to 14.9% in the March quarter 2012, down 0.4 percentage points on the December quarter 2011 percentage of 15.3%. Asset backed securities issued domestically as a proportion of total liabilities fell to 74.7% in the March quarter 2012, down 0.5 percentage points on the December quarter 2011 percentage of 75.2%.
