Available forms of Credit Enhancement • Internal Credit Enhancements • Over Collateralization (O/C) = Mortgages or Receivables sold below Par • Excess Spread = Yield on Mortgages higher than all-in cost of structure • Turbo feature = using excess spread to pay down notes or quotas faster • Junior Tranche = Liabilities or Quotas exceed Par Value of mortgage portfolio • External Credit Enhancements • Partial Guarantee on Performance of Assets • Mezzanine Tranche or Quotas • Full Wrap • Mortgage insurance
Advantages and challenges of each option • Internal Credit Enhancements • O/C • (-) No immediate recognition of value of Mortgage Yields • (+) may be cheaper option for originator • Excess Spread • (-) Can be hurt by defaults and prepayments • (+) helps ensure good servicing • Turbo feature • (-) Junior Quota holder has to wait too long to get Cashflows • (+) help reduce the WAL of Senior quotas hence more favourable pricing • Junior Tranche • (-) Impact on Regulatory and Economic Capital, consolidation risk • (+) Helps Originator benefit from upside of portfolio performance
Advantages and Challenges of each option • External Credit Enhancements • Partial Guarantee on Performance of Assets • (-) Additional party at the negotiations table • (+) Another pair of eyes that analyses the transaction • Mezzanine Tranche or Quotas • (-) can be harder to place if buyer not identified at the beginning • (+) can enhance all in cost of the transaction • Full Wrap • (-) too much reliance on wrapper as Investors taking credit risk of the wrapper only not on portfolio (LT funding?) • (+) sometimes more cost efficient or easier to place • Mortgage insurance • (-) may need to re-underwrite the whole portfolio, not always a portfolio solution • (+) First Loss provider for each loan
Structuring Considerations • Gauging of market appetite and target rating • All in cost of funding for originator • Legal and regulatory hurdles • Sustainable Long Term funding objectives of originator
External credit Enhancer Role • As a subordinated risk taker, Credit Enhancer may • be fully involved in the structuring of the issuance • Perform its own due diligence and appraisal • Perform its own modeling and risk analysis of the structure • Use market comparables for pricing • Participate in the investors road shows
Credit Enhancer Due Diligence • Analysis of the market and of the client’s market share. • Analysis of its expected growth. • Analysis of the origination strategy, Credit and Collection Policies and/or of the credit scoring system • Analysis of the Securitized portfolio. • Performance of the existing portfolio: prepayments, delinquency numbers, defaults, recoveries, net losses.
Mexico – GMAC MBS IFC entered the MBS market in Mexico with an innovative enhancement structure. As a credit enhancer, IFC contributed not only to the successful placement of the senior notes but also the development of domestic capital markets in Mexico as a sustainable long term source of financing to the housing sector in Mexico.
Best Local Market Securitization Colombia – Titularizadora NPL This transaction was the first securitization of non-performing loans in Latin America. As a credit enhancer, IFC contributed not only to the development of domestic capital markets by helping to introduce a new asset class, but also as a catalyst to expedite the recovery of the banking sector. Titularizadora’s first NPL securitization has already been replicated in a second transaction similar in structure but with non-performing mortgages from three originating banks.
