CapMAC Holdings

CapMAC Holdings Inc. (Capital Markets Assurance Corporation) was a New York-based holding company that provided financial guaranty and surety insurance for structured securities worldwide, primarily asset-backed securities, alongside structured financial solutions, advisory and structuring services, and investment management.
