In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add and change mortgage backed (MBS) and asset backed (ABS) securities.

This article assumes you are familiar with the entity elections that have been made for processing MBS and ABS securities.

About Mortgaged Backed Securities

MBS securities are securities backed by a pool of mortgages, such as those issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac. ABS securities are backed by a pool of loans or receivables. While technically mortgage backed securities are asset backed securities, in the United States there is a separation between the two.

You can add the following MBS/ABS securities using the Mortgage Backed Securities panel:

Lottery bonds
Certificates for automotive receivables (CARs)
Certificates of amortizing revolving debt (CARDs)
To be announced securities (TBAs)
Collateralized mortgage backed securities (CMOs)
Interest only mortgage strips (IOs)
Principal only mortgage strips (POs)
Targeted return index securities (TRAINS)

Content on this page:

For amortizing securities that are backed by loans and have a schedule of principal repayments, borrowers usually have the option of paying off all or part of their loan prior to the scheduled date. Any principal repayment prior to the scheduled date is called a prepayment. You can add prepayment time series information in the system. See the Manage Prepayment Time Series Information in Issue Viewer page for more information.

About Lottery Bonds

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add an MBS lottery bond. A lottery bond is a mortgage backed security that repays the principal of a security to investors based on a lottery selection.

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of mortgage backed security you are adding. To add an MBS lottery bond, select DBFBFB (Factor Based Debt Instrument) from the Processing Security Type drop down list, and select Yes from the Lottery Flag drop down list.

The system automatically sets the factor in the trade panel to a factor of 1, allows you to establish a call corporate action record, processes the call transaction for the repayment of principal to the individual, and uses a factor of 1 for retrospective amortization for the period that amortization is to be calculated historically.

About CARs/CARDs

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add asset backed securities (ABS). While technically mortgage backed securities are asset backed securities, in the United States there is a separation between the two. ABS are securities backed by a pool of loans or receivables. Some of the largest sectors of the ABS market include credit card receivables, auto loans, home equity loans, manufactured housing loans, high yield bonds, and bank loans.

The system allows you to manually add the following ABS securities using the Mortgage Backed Security panel:

Certificates for Automotive Receivables (CARs)
Certificates of Amortizing Revolving Debt (CARDs)

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of asset backed security you are adding. To add a Certificate for Automotive Receivables (CAR), select DBFBAL (Factor Based Debt Instrument Auto Loan) from the Processing Security Type drop down list. To add a Certificate of Amortizing Revolving Debt (CARD), select DBFBCC (Factor Based Debt Instrument Credit Card) from the Processing Security Type drop down list.

About TBAs

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add a TBA security. A TBA is an underlying contract on a mortgage backed security to buy or sell a mortgage backed security which will be delivered at an agreed-upon date in the future. The name comes from the fact that the number of pools or precise amount to be delivered is still unknown. The system allows you to book TBAs and process allocations to the underlying pools once they are known.

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of MBS security you are adding. To add a TBA security, select DBTATA (TBA Security) from the Processing Security Type drop down list.

About CMOs

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add a collateralized mortgage obligation (CMO). CMOs are designed to redistribute the cash flows (interest and principal) of mortgage related products to different bond classes. Redirecting the cash flows to different bond classes, called tranches, mitigates different forms of prepayment risk. CMOs are also referred to as REMICs (Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit).

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of MBS security you are adding. To add a CMO, select DBFBFB (Factor Based Debt Instrument) from the Processing Security Type drop down list and enter a value for the CMO First Principal Repayment Date field.

About IOs/POs

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add stripped mortgage backed securities, including interest only (IO) mortgage strips and principal only (PO) mortgage strips. Strip stands for Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities.

An IO mortgage strip is a type of stripped MBS security that has no par value. In contrast to the PO investor, the IO investor wants prepayments to be slow because the IO investor receives interest only on the dollar amount of the principal outstanding. When prepayments are made, less dollar interest will be received as the outstanding principal declines.

A PO mortgage strip is a type of stripped MBS security that is purchased at a substantial discount from par value. The return an investor receives depends on the speed at which prepayments are made. The faster the prepayments, the higher the investor's return.

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of mortgage backed security you are adding.
To add an IO mortgage strip, select DBFBIO (Interest Only Factor Based Debt Instrument) from the Processing Security Type drop down list and select IO (Interest Only) from the IO/PO Flag drop down list.

To add a PO mortgage strip, select DBFBPO (Principal Only Factor Based Debt Instrument) from the Processing Security Type drop down list and select PO (Principal Only) from the IO/PO Flag drop down list. Additionally, you must select Fixed Rate from the Coupon Type Code drop down list.

About TRAINS

In the Mortgage Backed Security panel, you can manually add a TRAIN security. A TRAIN is an investment trust product comprised of high-yield debt securities. Each certificate holder of the TRAIN is a beneficial owner of a fractional undivided interest in the trust. The TRAIN is a speculative investment, as the expected rating of the certificates is indicative of the non-investment credit standing and high credit risk of the underlying securities in the trust. The TRAIN is treated as a single bond security with an assigned CUSIP and is classified as a restricted security (rule 144a applies) available only to qualified investors.

The system uses the value in the Processing Security Type field on the Mortgage Backed Security panel to identify the type of MBS security you are adding. To add a TRAIN security, select DBIBTR (TRAINS) from the Processing Security Type drop down list.

The Coupon Type Code field has a value of Unscheduled Variable Rate (V) and is read-only. The Payment Frequency Code field has a value of 12-M (Annual) and is hidden and read-only. The Delay Days field is also hidden. The Last Coupon Date field displays the value of the Maturity Date.

About Default Bonds

A default bond is a bond in which the issuer has defaulted on the debt obligations and has filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The system uses the value in the Default Indicator field to identify a default bond. To add a default bond, select Yes from the Default Indicator drop down list. The system does not process the maturity transaction of the bond at the time of maturity. Specify the date on which the bond went into default in the Default Date field. For more information, see Understand Default Bonds.

Ex interest processing does not apply to cleared swaps and to securities trading flat. For more information, see About Ex Interest Processing.
Dates
Issue Price	69	Specifies the original price of the security.
Issue Date	68	Specifies the original date of issue. The system uses this date to calculate the adjusted issue price for OID (original issue discount) amortization. If the instrument is OID eligible and it has a variable rate or floating rate, the rate must exist as of the issue date, so that STAR can calculate the adjusted issue price.
Dated Date	1183	Specifies the date the security first begins to accrue interest.
First Coupon Date	473	Specifies the date of the first coupon payment. The First Coupon Date, Last Coupon Date, and Payment Frequency fields are used to create a coupon schedule for the security, from issuance to maturity date. The coupon schedule consists of three coupon periods. The system uses the Dated Date and the First Coupon Date fields in the earnings process to calculate the first coupon period. The first coupon period can be a long length coupon period, a short coupon period, or a normal length coupon period. The system uses the First Coupon Date, Payment Frequency, Timing of Payment, Day of Month Override, Business Day Convention, and Last Coupon Date fields in the earnings process to calculate the second coupon period (also referred to as the second to last period or penultimate). The system uses the Last Coupon Date and the Maturity Date fields in the earnings process to calculate the last coupon period. The last coupon period can be a long length coupon period, a short coupon period, or a normal length coupon period.
Last Coupon Date	474	Specifies the date of the last normal length coupon period. Eagle recommends that you enter penultimate.
Maturity Date	38	Specifies the date that the security repays all outstanding principal and stops earning interest. In the case of MBS/ABS securities, the value in the Maturity Date field should not include Delay Days.
Maturity Price	42	Specifies the price at which the security returns principal.
CMO First Principal Repayment Date	1587	Calculates cash flows for creating an amortization yield. This field is used when the security does not expect to repay scheduled and unscheduled principal for a certain period of time. If this field is populated, the system ignores the prepayment assumption calculation of unscheduled principal repayment. It also ignores calculating schedule principal repayment, and only calculates interest cash flow, until the date entered for this field. The system then applies scheduled and unscheduled principal payment and related interest cash flows.
Variable Rate Next Reset Date	3006	Specifies the date of the next rate reset for a security with a variable rate coupon type.
Flags
Trading Flat	3949	Indicates whether the security is trading with or without interest. Options include: Yes. The system does not calculate accrued interest purchased or sold at the time of the acquisition or disposition. In the event of a disposition mid-coupon, the system creates a coupon at the end of the coupon period based on the interest earned during the period. No. The system calculates accrued interest purchased or sold at the time of the acquisition or disposition.
OID Indicator	218	Indicates whether the security is OID (original issue discount) eligible. The system does not support OID amortization processing for MBS/ABS securities; therefore, the OID Indicator is set to No. This field is not required for MBS/ABS securities.

The system uses the First Rate Reset Date field, along with Reset Frequency Code, Business Calendar, and Business Day Convention field values to create the floating rate reset schedule of the security. This field appears and is required only if you set the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) to a value of either X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
Reset Frequency	476	Specifies the frequency at which the security resets its rate, beginning from the date defined in the First Rate Reset Date field. Options include: 10 DAY 14 Day 28 Day 30 Day 35 Day 49 Day Annual Bi-Monthly Daily Monthly Quarterly Semi-Annual Weekly This field appears only if you set the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) to a value of either X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
Reset Frequency Code	1788	Specifies the code associated with the frequency at which the security resets its rate beginning from the date defined in the First Rate Reset Date field. Options include: 10_D (10 DAY) 12_M (Annual) 14_D (14 Day) 1_D (Daily) 1_M (Monthly) 28_D (28 Day) 2_M (Bi-Monthly) 30_D (30 Day) 35_D (35 Day) 3_M (Quarterly) 49_D (49 Day) 6_M (Semi-Annual) 7_D (Weekly) This field appears and is required only if you set the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) to a value of either X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
Reset Lookback Days	10547	Specifies the actual number of days to look back when setting the rate on the reset date. Floating Rate type securities can use a past rate on the specified reset date. This field appears only if you set the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) to a value of either X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
Reset Lookback Days Type	5075	Indicates whether the system bases the reset look back days on valid business days or actual calendar days. This field appears only if the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) has a value of X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater). Options include: B (Business). Determines fixing days by valid business days using the Fixing Date Business Center field (tag 16407). C (Calendar). Determines fixing days by actual calendar days.
Reset Lockout Days	10549	Specifies the number of days at the end of a given period for which any new, daily rates are effectively locked out. Instead, the same rate is used across the lockout period. The rate referenced is the one that was used on the business day prior to the lockout period. The system performs the count backwards from the coupon date, inclusive of the lockout effective date and exclusive of the coupon date. This field does not appear if the Observation Period Adjust Days field has a value greater than zero.
Reset Lockout Period	18083	Indicates how to identify the reset lockout period. This field appears if you specify a value for the Reset Lockout Days field. Options include: A (All Period). Default. The lockout period specified in the Reset Lockout Days field applies to the end of all coupon periods. L (Last Period). The lockout days only are applied to the final coupon period.
Observation Period Adjust Days	18086	Specifies the actual number of days that the system should shift backwards by when setting the rate. The indices rate and the weighting of the rate in the compounding formula are determined based on the day the index rate represents in the Observation Period rather than the day of the Interest Period. This field does not appear if you specify a value for either the Reset Lookback Days or Reset Lockout Days fields. Conversely, if you define a value for the Observation Period Adjust Days field, the panel hides the Lookback and Lockout fields.
Coupon Rate Fixing Method	18274	Identifies the coupon rate fixing method. Options include: NORMAL (Normal). The coupon rate is determined at the beginning of each floater accrual period. RESETATEND (Reset at End). The rate is not determined until the end of the current period. If you select this value, you can choose a Final Rate Rounding Precision value and Final Rate Rounding Direction value in the Compound Information section.
Fixing Date Business Center	16407	Specifies the fixing date business calendar for the security. The Earnings process uses this business calendar you select to identify business days and non business days for the purposes of determining the fixing date for floating rate and inverse floating rate coupon date. The fixing date is the date on which a rate/price is selected for use on the reset date. If you do not select a value, the Earnings process uses the business calendar selected in the Business Calendar Name field (tag 1480) to determine the fixing date. This option allows you to specify separate calendars when a security uses one calendar for dropping coupons and a different calendar for resetting the floating rate. This field appears only if the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) has a value of X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
Periodic Cap	10907	Specifies the maximum allowed increase in a variable rate from one period to the next. This field appears only if you set the Coupon Type Code field (tag 97) to a value of either X (Floating Rate) or R (Inverse Floater).
