The secondary mortgage industry wanted a way
to mitigate the effect of the uncertain timing of
mortgage payoffs of a pass through
The solution was the creation of the CMO
However, there was a potential tax problem
A REMIC is a tax status for a pool of mortgages
REMICs are only taxed at the CMO level and
not at the entity (pool) level
Must follow rules (as do mutual funds) to get
this special tax status

Conduits (REMICS)
„
„
„
Limited life and self liquidating with minimal
management
No taxation at the entity level
REMIC assets consist only of:
… Qualified
mortgages
property only
… Short term, passive, or interest bearing assets used
to reinvest funds not yet paid to out to investors
… Qualified reserve fund (more important if assets are
not backed by GNMA, FNMA, or FHMLC)
… Foreclosure

Slide 6
Idea behind CMO’s
A pool of mortgages can be seen as a
set of cash flows, that can be spit into
pieces and sold as pieces rather than
as an undivided fraction of the pool
„ Like the Seinfeld episode where the
muffin tops were being sold separately
from the less desirable muffin bottom

Collateralized Mortgage Obligation
(CMOs) Continued
Collateralized Mortgage
Obligation (CMOs)
All payments flow through to the bond
holders
„ Security holder assumes prepayment risk
„ Multiple classes of security (maturities) are
issued
„ Payment prioritization established by using
Tranches of different maturity dates
„
Mitigates some prepayment risk
„ CMOs are debt instruments
„ Pool of mortgages comprise the
collateral
„ Issuer retains ownership of the
mortgages and issue various classes of
bonds against the pool
„
… Tranche
McGraw-Hill/Irwin

is a French word meaning slice

CMO - example
CMO - example
„
Mortgage Pool Consists of 102,000,000
of mortgages
„ Tranche A is 20,000,000 of (short term)
bonds which gets interest payments
plus all of the principal payments until
this class is paid off
„ Tranche B is 30,000,000 of medium
term bonds which receive interest only
until Tranche A is fully paid off, and
then receives all principal payments
„

Tranche Z is 50,000,000 of zero coupon like
bonds which get no payment (though they accrue
interest) until the first 2 Tranches are paid off, at
which time they get all the money paid into the
pool until they are paid off
If the average interest rate on the mortgages was
6%, Tranche A might earn 4.75%, Tranche B
5.25% and Tranche Z 5.75%
The residual cash goes to the Equity, which began
with $2,000,000, and represents the over
collateralization of the pool
Recall that the servicer and guarantor also get a
cut of the mortgage interest

Slide 11
Weighted Average Coupon (WAC)
If the average interest rate on the
mortgages was 6%, Tranche A might earn
4.75%, Tranche B 5.25% and Tranche Z
5.75%
„ WAC = 0.2*4.75% + 0.3*5.25% +
0.5*5.75% = 5.40%
„ The rest of the coupon payment from the
underlying mortgages would go to pay the
servicing and guarantee fees and to pay
the equity portion of the pool
„

Slide 12
CMO’s
Prepayment risk is now somewhat
mitigated as Tranche A absorbs the
earliest repayment, followed by Tranche
B. Tranche Z keeps its money invested
in the pool longer (Sequential Tranches)
„ When putting together CMO’s the
sponsor attempts to match investors
with the expected cash flow of the
Tranche

CMO’s
Slide 14
CMO’s
Te reduce prepayment risk further, some
Tranches were set up as PAC’s (planned
amortization classes, and TAC’s, targeted
amortization classes) for which the
structure tried to keep the cash timing as
close as possible to projections
„ To take up the slack, companions were
also issued which took the prepayments if
they deviated from the expected pool
prepayment
„
As the CMO market grew, so did the
number of Tranches
„ It became increasingly common to sell
investors the type of Tranche the
investor desired
„ When all the desirable Tranches were
sold off, what was left were dubbed
“kitchen sink” bonds because the
originator had sold off everything but the
kitchen sink

IO’s and PO’s
CMO’s
„
Another way to slice up the mortgage
cash flows is to separate the principal
and interest part of the cash flows
„ IO is an interest only strip
„ PO is a principal only strip
„
„
„
© 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved
McGraw-Hill/Irwin
An investor who buys a PO know for sure the
amount she will receive in cash payments (the
note amount). This investor does not know the
timing of these cash flows
An investor that buys an IO knows neither the
amount nor the timing of the cash flows (it
depends on the prepayment). IO’s are thus very
risky as if interest rates decline, refinancing will
rise, cutting off the future interest payments.
High prepayment is bad for IO holders and good
for PO

Slide 23
Derivative Security
Derives its value from another security
index, or financial claim
„ MPTs and CMOs are based on pools of
mortgages
„ Derivatives may be purchased to protect
the yield on another portfolio of mortgages
or bonds
„
Some Tranches have variable interest rates
May be from ARM mortgages
Fixed rate mortgages may also be used as a
pool for creating floater
Inverse floaters are used to balance off
floaters if fixed rates mortgages back up the
pool
If interest rates increase, the payments to
floaters increases, and the payments to
inverse floaters decrease
