HSBC Finance Corporation’s management is responsible for the assertion. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting that the servicing of receivables has been conducted in compliance with the terms and conditions as set forth in Article III and Section 5.08 of the Agreement, as supplemented, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, management's assertion that the servicing of the receivables has been conducted by HSBC Finance Corporation, as Servicer, in compliance with the terms and conditions as set forth in Article III and Section 5.08 of the Amended and Restated Transfer and Servicing Agreement dated August 11, 2006, as supplemented, for the period of January 1, 2007 to March 15, 2007 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
