CONCLUSION
Cash Distribution Model Flows 4Source of Risk & Opportunity
While difficult to directly stress test bonds under policy scenarios 4
add potential interest rate increases when modeling. We model
cash follows under a variety of assumptions accounting for
different assumed prepayment, default, and loss severity rates.
Mortgage servicers are key players in the MBS sphere 4 Collect
payments from borrowers and can advance on delinquent loans 4
Relationship with agents is key.
Monthly reporting is provided by their 3rd party administrator.
Provides a technical stratification of the portfolio and other
relevant statistics on the underlying bonds.
Illiquidity in the portfolio is managed via Cash Flows generated
Opportunities 4 Hedging & Leveraging if market does not expand
+ Re-REMICs + entering seasoned post 2006 securities
