Current Situation
What happened?
• Liquidity evaporated
• Market values eroded
Why is valuation needed?
• GAAP Accounting regulations still require a
value (FAS 157)
• Risk quantification
Distribution of assumptions and valuations
8
Liquidity Evaporated
Broker/Dealers of non-Agency MBS unwilling to
provide liquidity 1
Forced liquidations of MBS set market prices 1
Pricing vendors find it difficult to obtain “real”
prices
Bid - Ask spread is 10-30 points depending on
collateral and the depth of distress 2

GAAP Valuation Still Needed
Mark to Market
• FAS 157 required companies to value holdings
Level 1 – based on market price
Recent observed prices could be due to forced
liquidation
Level 2 – based on related price (ex. spread to treasuries)
Spreads can reflect lots of different risks (credit,
liquidity,…)
Level 3 – based on model price
Mark to Model pricing developed from loan level data
• FASB relaxation of mark-to-market rules
• FAS 157-4 and FAS 115-2
• Perhaps an ‘intrinsic value’ based on full range of scenarios

Other Properties of Mortgage-Backed Securities
Interest rate can vary by tranche
• Fixed or floating
Payment Triggers
• Delinquency percentages
• Cumulative losses-to-date
• LIBOR
Distinct collateral groups for difference tranches
Loss patterns similar to XOL insurance
Credit Enhancement
• Mortgage Insurance
• Financial Guarantees
• Excess Interest
• Over Collateralization

Credit Model: amount and timing of loan losses
Key Considerations of Models
• Traditional actuarial development methods can be
used (and in fact are)
Significant limitations to consider
• Methods must critically consider the key drivers of
losses:
Exposure Duration
Underwriting quality of collateral pool
Economic factors affecting collateral pool
Loan level data for each of the above factors
Adjusted BF methods (among others) can do this

Cash Flow Waterfall
MBS intrinsic value = NPV (future security CFs)
Future security CFs = f(mortgage collateral performance,
structure)
• Which security gets how much when depends on cash
flow amounts and timing and triggers
• Various triggers
