"Asset-backed securities" doesn't sound like corporate equity to me.



In a broad reading it could easily be just that.

Securities class contains stock

Stock = backed by the company balance sheet


What would be an example of a non-asset-backed security?


In the financial world asset backed securities are typically anything that isn't a mortgage, I think that some crypto would qualify as well as the rights to future profits on some venture.
