Collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) are a type of asset-backed security that pools together mortgages and then issues tranches with different maturities and levels of risk. They do not have CDOs as their underlying collateral; instead, they are backed by mortgage loans. Therefore, the statement that CMOs have pools of CDOs as underlying collateral is incorrect.
