Reuters writes "​Moody'​s cuts, may cut, $​33 bln of SIV debt", which says "include debt issued by three Citigroup SIVs -- Beta, Centauri and Dorada; HSBC'​s two SIVs, Asscher and Cullinan; and WestLB'​s Harrier and Kestrel vehicles. The Wall Street Journal says "​SIV Rescue Plan Faces New Pressure". "​The three SIVs whose capital notes [​not CP] were placed yesterday on review ... have a combined $​50 billion in assets. Of the seven SIVs, 7%, or nearly $​6 billion in assets, are invested in U.​S. mortgage-​backed securities", says WSJ. The bank adds, "[​T]​he SIVs have no direct exposure to U.​S. subprime assets" through investments in collateralized debt obligations.
