    Asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) is a short-term debt instrument backed by financial assets such as receivables, loans, or other eligible assets. Companies or financial institutions use ABCP to raise short-term funding. Investors purchase the paper and receive returns based on its terms. Because it is asset-backed, its risk depends partly on the quality of the underlying assets.
