What is Behavior
“Where Contractual Terms May Be Varied By Custom or Implication”
» Prepayment Due To Unscheduled, Part Or Full, Principle Repayments
» The Variability and Lack of Sensitivity of Non Maturity Liabilities in Terms of:
– Maturity
– Coupon or Interest Rate Repricing, or Rate Repricing Lag To Market Rates, Or The Rate Off-set Due To High Account Servicing Cost
» Call Options, Put Options
» Caps, Floors
» Changing Credit Card Balances

Why is Modeling Behavior Important?
Understanding correlated behavior is important because it allows risk managers to reflect the impact of market volatility on embedded options.

How are Mortgage Prepayments Modeled?
» The purpose of a prepayment model is to define a relationship between projected mortgage rates and the resulting rates of prepayment activity, given all available information regarding the mortgage, the mortgage holder, the current state of the economy, etc. If this relationship were well modeled, it would in turn allow one to answer all of the questions that one may ask as a holder of a mortgage-backed security. » Questions like: the value of the option to refinance, the average advantage of owning a mortgage
vs. owning other instruments, how one can compare a mortgage to a collection of bonds and short positions in interest rate derivatives, etc.
» A well constructed model should capture the differences between short-term projections and long-term projections.
» A well-constructed model should incorporate all known factors that effect a mortgage holder's inclination to move or to refinance, as well as the overall state of the US housing market.
» Typical prepayment factors include: Refinance spread, seasoning, seasonality, burn out, loan size, FICO score, etc.
13
Proposed Model
» The prepayment model we are about to build in the slides that follow is the product of a CPR based seasoning ramp and seasonality and refinance multipliers:

14
Seasoning (Age)
Quantification of seasoning (age) factor:
» Remove any sold loans from the bank data
» For each month, calculate the age of the loans at prepayment
» For each month, calculate the Single Monthly Mortality (SMM) and CPR. The CPR is the annualized percentage of the existing mortgage balances expected to be prepaid in a year.
» Finally, calculate the monthly average CPR for each age.

Refinance Incentive
» Refinance incentive/spread (RS) is defined as gross weighted average coupon rate minus the current offer rate, which is the sum of 3 year swap rate and 150 basis points pricing spread. If the three year swap rate becomes lower, more people are going to refinance.
» Quantifying refinance incentive:» In each month, group deal level loans by age and refinance spread cohorts.
» The market rate for the loans is assumed to be the three year US swap rate and the 150 basis points are assumed to be the average pricing spread.
» Calculate the monthly average CPR.
» Adjust for other behavior factors i.e. de-season and de-seasonalize the CPR/refi-incentive

Conclusion
» “Every aspect of a “good” prepayment model must be designed to reflect people’s behavior. History should be used, but only as an indication of what the parameters should be. And, if there is not enough history to set the value of certain parameters that we know exist in the real world, it is better to set them to some reasonable value than not set them at all, and have them implied by other parameters, since the implied value may not be a reasonable one.
» The quality of a model depends ONLY on the accuracy and completeness of the representation of the underlying phenomenon that we know exists in the real world.”
