July Prepayment Commentary:

Rising Cuspy Coupon Prepayments


30-year mortgage rates have rallied ~30 bps from 4.84% in April to
4.55% in June, according to Freddie Macs Weekly Primary Mortgage
Market Survey. While this move has had little impact on credit-impaired
higher coupons, it has greatly increased refinancing exposure for new
production (2009 and 2010) cuspy premiums (4.5s and 5s). The July
prepayment report (June speeds) showed FN-30 were up 15% to 14.9
CPR from 13 CPR, and FH-30 increased 17% from 12 CPR to 14 CPR
month-over-month. Across coupons, 4.5s and 5s displayed a
significant increase while higher coupons slowed. By contrast, the
market (and we) had anticipated slower speeds for cuspy coupons
and slightly faster speeds for higher coupons than what came out from
the June print. As a result, we expect a repricing of TBAs and IOS.

30-Year Conforming Conventional


Across coupons, speed changes were rather uneven: 4.5s and 5s
showed a significant increase, surprising us on the upside, while
higher coupons slowed more than expected. Specifically, FN-30 4.5s
were up by 54% (+3.3 CPR), and 5s were up 29% (+3.7 CPR).
Conversely, premiums continued flat to a small decline: FN-30 6s
remained unchanged at 22.6 CPR and FN-30 6.5s were down 5% (-0.9
CPR).
With the continued weak housing turnover and stabilization of
involuntary prepay, the increase in cuspy coupons likely arose from the
following reasons:

Rate Refi: With a no-point mortgage rate of 4.82% (Freddie


PMMs rate: 4.64% with 0.7 pts) in May (affecting June
print), rate incentives are about 20 bps for 4.5s and 70 bps
for 5s, respectively. With pristine credit, 2009 and 2010
borrowers can take advantage of the best possible rates in
the market. However, although 20 bps in-the-money may
well cover the refi cost, it doesn't fully explain the 54%
increase for 4.5s speeds. For example, FN 2009 4.5s
increased 59% from 7.1 CPR to 11.3 CPR and FN 2010
4.5s jumped 55% from 4.5 CPR to 7 CPR. This magnitude
of increase is beyond the rationale provided by refinancing
into another 30-year mortgage (unless they paid points).

2.

Another possible explanation is refinancing down the


curve. It has become relatively easy to move down the
curve to refi into 15-year loans since the mortgage rate
curve has become steeper. The spread between 30-year
and 15-year conforming rate is about 82 bps in May versus
67 bps this January, and the spread between 30-year and
5/1 ARM rate is about 122 bps versus 104 bps over the
same period (figure 1 below).

Assuming 30-year borrowers can refi into a 15-year


product with lower mortgage rates (from a May no-point
30-year mortgage rate of 4.64% to a 15-year mortgage rate
of 3.82%), as shown in the Figure 2 below, this option
results in the following: a) An increase in their monthly
payment by 40%, or ~ $ 467, from $ 1,115 to $ 1,582
(assuming a loan of $216,541, the average loan size for
2009 30-year 4.5s). b) A major savings in their lifetime
interest cost of about ~ $90,000. After deducting a
refinancing cost of ~ $3,500, the net saving would be ~
$86,500, which is enormous. c) A significant reduction in
payment duration from a 28-year mortgage to a 15-year
mortgage. For savvy borrowers (2009 4.5s have perfect
credit quality [69 LTV, 761 FICO], this might make sense -they can simply make additional payments by using their
uninvested cash to create huge savings while effectively
reducing their payment duration.

Finally, fix-30 4.5s could refi into an ARM. However, based


on the Freddie Mac Quarterly Product Transition Statistics
(Figure 3 below), 99% of the fixed-30 year product
refinanced into another fixed rate mortgage (65% into 30year mortgage, 12% into 20-year mortgage and 22% into
15-year mortgage), and only 1% into ARMs.

3.

In addition, increased day-count and an up-tick in


seasonality have likely resulted in 5 ~ 8% increase in
speeds. Day-count was up about 5% from 21 days in May
to 22 days in June, while seasonality index improved by ~
3%. However, the effect of day-count and seasonality
should affect speeds across the board, rather than for only
cuspy coupons.

15-Year Conforming Conventional


Aggregate FNMA 15-years printed 15 CPR in June, up 20% (+2.5CPR)
from May speeds. The change across the coupons has a pattern
similar to that of 30year speeds: cuspy coupons prepaid faster while
higher coupons barely changed. For example, 4s were up by 55%
(+4.9 CPR) and 4.5s were up 17% (+2.6 CPR). By contrast, both 5s
and 5.5s were unchanged, prepaying at 19.6 CPR.
Given the same incentive, 15-year prepaid faster than 30-year in the
lower coupons, but slower in the higher coupons. For example, FH-15
4s prepaid 14 CPR, which is 4.5 CPR higher than 30-year 4.5s
(9.5CPR). Similarly, FH-15 4.5s prepaid 18.7 CPR - 2 CPR higher than
30-year 5s (16.7 CPR). By contrast, FH-15 higher coupons prepaid
3

slower relative to their 30-year counterparts: Both FH-15 5s and 5.5s


prepaid 19.6 CPR, which represented 1.7 CPR and 3 CPR slower than
FH-30 5.5s and 6s, respectively. The slower speeds for higher coupons
in FH-15 are mostly the result of lower involuntary prepays, as 15-year
generally has stronger credit borrowers than 30-year. The average
involuntary prepays were about 2.4 CPR and 3.9 CPR slower for FH-15
5s and 5.5s than their FH-30 5.5 and 6 counterparts.

GNMA Prepayments
GN1 increased 16% from 9 CPR to 10.4 CPR, and GN2 were up 16%
to 9.1 CPR from 7.8 CPR in the prior month. GN1 speeds were faster
across-the-board, except for the 6.5s. Specifically, GN1 speeds were
up 36%, 17%, 11% and 3% from coupon 4.5s to 6s, respectively.
Similarly, GN2 accelerated 29%, 24%, 14% and 9% for coupon 4.5s
through 6s, respectively. However, GN1 and GN2 exhibited a slightly
different prepay pattern on 6.5s: GN1 were down 3% to 16.1 CPR while
GN2 were up 10% to 18.8 CPR.

Short-Term Prepayment Forecasts


We expect next month's prepayments (August factor) to continue
drifting upwards, reflecting a combination of higher rate refi incentives,
lower day-count, and unchanged seasonality.
The lagged mortgage rates dropped from 4.64% for June to 4.50% for
July. Meantime, day-count was down about 9% from 22 to 20 days
over the same period, while the seasonality index was largely
unchanged. All factors considered, we expect July speeds (August
factor) to slightly increase by ~10% from the June print. However,
speed change across coupons will likely remain uneven: Cuspy
premiums, such as 4.5s and 5s are expected to prepay faster while
higher coupons will likely continue to be rate-independent.
As usual, our detailed speed forecasts by product type, coupon and
vintage are appended in our RBS Monthly Prepayment Commentary.
