不良研究所官方鈥檚 CMBS and RMBS 2022 Interim Updates:
Proforma Modeling Results (posted 11/30/22)
UPDATES AND NEWS
The implementation of the full range of 20 不良研究所官方 Designation Categories in the 不良研究所官方鈥檚 CMBS/RMBS year-end financial modeling took place last year-end 2022. This is to support the updated Risk Based Capital factors that were adopted in 2021. As part of the implementation, several changes are being made to the macroeconomic scenarios and probability assignments.
Please refer to a recent amendment to Part 4 of the P&P Manual and the Modeling Update meeting material prepared for the Valuation of Securities (E) Task Force:
- Part 4 of the P&P Manual Update听Amendment to the P&P Manual updating Part Four for 不良研究所官方 designation categories and additional price points听
- And Attachment Eleven for听Macroeconomic Scenarios and Assignment of Probabilities for CMBS and RMBS听/sites/default/files/national_meeting/VOSTF%20Materials%208.11.2022%20v7.pdf
In summary:
- The price breakpoint calculation for Legacy CMBS/RMBS and 不良研究所官方 Designation Category mapping for Non-legacy CMBS/RMBC will reflect the updated RBC factors.
- The total number of scenarios increases to 8 from 4; these scenarios are meant to be through-the-cycle.
- Probability weights have been reallocated to accommodate the additional scenarios.
不良研究所官方鈥檚 CMBS and RMBS 2022 Interim Updates:
Proforma Modeling Results (posted 11/30/22)
Also of note from last year:
Each financially modeled Non-Legacy Security (RMBS and CMBS that closed on or after January 1, 2013*) will receive a single 不良研究所官方 Designation and 不良研究所官方 Designation category rather than Price Grids (breakpoints). Price Grids will continue to be provided for financially modelled RMBS and CMBS Legacy Securities (RMBS and CMBS that closed prior to January 1, 2013).
You can see additional details related to this change on听听Bulletin Board and in the amendment document adopted by the Valuation of Securities (E) Task Force.
For further details and latest relevant information, please visit听the听Valuation of Securities (E) Task Force听webpage.
听
*For re-REMICs, the Legacy and Non-Legacy classification of underlying securities will determine whether each RMBS/CMBS is to be assigned a single 不良研究所官方 Designation and Designation Category or is subject to price breakpoints.

CAS Debt and STACR Debt
In 2019, the SSG will continue to assign 不良研究所官方 Designations to CAS Debt and STACR Debt securities that were previously evaluated by the 不良研究所官方 as long as the obligation type and ongoing information requirements are satisfied. The list of these CAS Debt and STACR Debt transactions can be found听here.
听
New in 2019
Beginning in 2018, GSEs started issuing a new type of Credit Risk Transfer transaction which is issued out of a trust and whose cash flows are not directly funded by mortgage loans (鈥淣ew CRT鈥). The New CRT transactions have added layers of complexity involving the funding mechanism of the transaction.
As a result, starting year-end 2019, GSE鈥檚 New CRT securities are required to be reviewed by the Structured Securities Group (SSG) of the 不良研究所官方 through either Initial Sufficiency Filing (ISF) or Regulatory Treatment Analysis Service (RTAS) before being evaluated at year-end. This is required to perform appropriate reviews that are necessary to analyze the new structure and certain added complexity of GSE鈥檚 New CRTs.
Currently, Fannie Mae鈥檚 CAS REMIC and Freddie Mac鈥檚 STACR Trust and the planned STACR REMIC are such newer transactions that are subject to the ISF/RTAS filing with the SSG. Please note that ISF or RTAS is to be filed for each transaction, not for each security (CUSIP), and is required only once for the term of the transaction, not annually.
The ISF/RTAS filing is not required for the CAS and STACR transactions that were previously evaluated by the 不良研究所官方 at previous year-ends (i.e. CAS Debt, STACR Debt, and STACR SPI).

2011 RMBS/CMBS Modeled Securities Listings 01/20/12听
Please see the following files for the RMBS/CMBS securities that were modeled for the 2011 initiative. In the January addendum file, you will find securities that have been modeled but are not necessarily owned by an insurance company as of the June 30, 2011, filing statements. These securities are marked as either RMBSx or CMBSx and have a description in the attached lists that indicates that they are not insurer owned but are available for sale as of January 13, 2012. These additional securities are investment grade bonds that were part of securitizations where another bond in the same deal was held by an insurer. Split-rated securities have to be currently rated at issuance by at least one of the 不良研究所官方's Acceptable Rating Organizations (ARO).
To give an example, assume that there are 20 securities that are part of a particular modeled deal, and three of those are non-investment grade, which leaves 17 remaining securities for consideration. Of the 17 remaining if there are two that are owned by insurers as of June 30, 2011, then those two modeled results were included in the December results file and the other 15 that are not owned will be included in the January addendum file. The three non-investment grade securities would be excluded from both files.听
Individual results for securities marked RMBSx are available to insurance companies for $70 each and those marked CMBSx are available to insurance companies for $100 each.

2010 RMBS/CMBS Addendum Results Made Available on January 21听1/20/11
The 不良研究所官方 released the 2010 RMBS/CMBS addendum results files on Friday, January 21, 2011. Insurers can use the Automated Valuation Service (AVS) system to retrieve the RMBS/CMBS results files. This information should be used in conjunction with the existing 不良研究所官方 Valuation of Securities (VOS) CD-ROM and/or AVS. In the 不良研究所官方's VOS and AVS products following year-end and addendum processing, RMBS and CMBS securities will be marked as "NR*", indicating the insurer will need to use the RMBS/CMBS CUSIP file in order to map and report the designations of holdings appropriately in 2010 statutory annual statement and RBC filings.
