    Pipeline Hedging:
    The New Imperative for the Independent Mortgage Banker.

    Change is a natural part of life. However, mortgage bankers have had an amazing amount of change thrust upon them in recent years.

    Whatever the new regulation may be, many of these changes require the development and deployment of new operating processes, possible investments in new/upgraded technologies, additional hires, and ultimately higher costs and less profit for the mortgage banker.

    In this white paper, MCT Trading outlines a readiness checklist for mortgage bankers as they consider moving from a best efforts delivery platform to a mandatory delivery model, and identifies key characteristics of an effective pipeline hedging strategy.

    Portfolio Reviews:
    Monitor for Risk, Catalyst for Action
    A TransUnion White Paper By Ezra D. Becker, Vice President, Research and Consulting, Financial Services

    Clearly, the ability to understand and manage risk fluctuations is an essential part of any effective credit risk management strategy. One of the best ways to do this is by conducting regular portfolio reviews, which can provide both point-in-time and longitudinal statistics. This information gives you the ability to assess both overall portfolio risk and individual account-level risk, making it a key foundation for developing effective business rules and organizational strategies.

    This paper explains four ways in which your business may benefit from the use of portfolio reviews:

    • Better risk quantification
    • Improved trend monitoring
    • More precise portfolio valuations
    • Enhanced account management

    Applying AVM Technology in Whole Loan and REO Portfolios

    A Veros Software White Paper By William J. O'Brien, Capital Markets Sales Director

    While collateral valuation is acknowledged as essential for real estate and mortgage investors, how to value the collateral raises significant and potentially expensive issues. A typical method of portfolio valuation is the use of a broad index, which typically includes high population areas, within which are mortgages commonly held in most portfolios. Unfortunately, these methods frequently fail investors by overstating collateral value, potentially exposing investors to substantial credit risk, or understating collateral value. This can result in unnecessary and expensive actions, including increasing loan-loss reserve.

    This paper will focus on the benefits of using automated valuation models (AVMs) to determine the value of residential real estate collateral, including performing properties and REOs. It is divided into three sub-topics:

    The report covers:

    • Using granular, zip-code level analysis versus broad indicies for more accurate portfolio valuations.
    • Using specialized AVMs to value REO properties, including modeling worst-case scenarios for risk management purposes.
    • Using AVM and other data sources to identify potential high-risk portfolio assets and estimate worst-case values.

    Second Liens: When They're Under-Recognized, You're Over-Exposed

    The Federal Reserve's growing concern over second liens and the exposure they create for financial institutions is driving the need to improve second lien credit analysis and segmentation.

    • Second liens represent 9% of the $9,700 billion in household mortgage debt.

    Fragmentation related to ownership and Fed guidance for gathering and analyzing data on firsts (regardless of ownership), has created challenges for a significant number of institutions with second liens but no direct financial interest in the first.

    • Among properties with first and second liens, 62% have different servicers for the first and second mortgage.

    This NYLX Executive Brief will summarize commentary, reports and interagency guidance regarding second liens and provide insight to help you:

    • Comply with interagency guidance and surface payment status of all liens to properly determine loss reserves and accurately calculate CLTVs.
    • Establish an ALLL (Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses) process that recognizes the differences between HELOC and closed-end second borrowers.
    • Improve second lien credit analysis and segmentation based on origination characteristics and performance profiles.

    BONUS: Along with the white paper, we have also included an executive summary of the January 31st Interagency Guidance as a quick reference.
