An "asset-backed security" is sometimes used as an umbrella term for a type of security backed by a pool of assets—including collateralized debt obligations and mortgage-backed securities. Example: "A capital market in which asset-backed securities are issued and traded is composed of three main categories: ABS, MBS and CDOs" (italics added).

Other times it is used for a particular type of that security—one backed by consumer loans. Example: "As a rule of thumb, securitization issues backed by mortgages are called MBS, and securitization issues backed by debt obligations are called CDO, [and s]ecuritization issues backed by consumer-backed products—car loans, consumer loans and credit cards, among others—are called ABS ..."
