Sounds like a conduit - purchase mortgages from originators and package as securities
While it could be a conduit, it's more likely a CMBS Origination Group. Most packaging is done out of NY whereas regional offices are responsible for the origination. In this case, CS's origination group is sometimes referred to as Column Financial.
Here's a description from a conference agenda http://secure.imn.org/~conference/im/index2.cfm?page=spon.cfm&sys_code=…
The [Credit Suisse] Real Estate Finance and Securitization Group provides a full range of debt and equity capital, financial advisory and capital markets services including both CRE CDO and CMBS to the real estate industry. Together with its Column Financial subsidiary, the firm is a top contributor of commercial loans for the securitized market and a leader in the issuance of CMBS and CRE CDO securities.
