Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Collateralized Debt Obligations [Video]

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Collateralized Debt Obligations

A mortgage-backed security (or an asset-backed security) can be divided into different tranches so investors can invest according to their risk appetite. When this is done with mortgages it’s called a collateralized mortgage obligation (CMO). When this is done with other types of debt (student loans, corporate debt, auto loans, etc.) it’s called a collateralized debt obligation (CDO).

Each tranche has different schedules for the return of principal, coupon rates, and the allocation of prepayment. If you’re concerned about default, you would invest in a tranche with a higher repayment priority. The Z-tranche (or Z-bond) is the riskiest because it receives cash flows last.

The CMO/CDO structure generally results in more predictable cash flows for investors because they can choose a tranche based on their desired level of risk.

Here’s an example of how this works:

1. A loan originator, such as a bank, makes loans
2. The loan originator sells the loans to a special purpose entity (SPE), which is a separate entity (the SPE is usually set up as a trust)
3. The SPE then sells debt securities (notes or bonds, called “investor certificates”) to investors. The cash inflows these investors will receive from the debt securities come from the cash inflows of the underlying assets (in this case, loans)
4. The debt securities are classified into various tranches based on (a) repayment priority and (b) credit risk (a senior tranche has a higher repayment priority and less risk). A security that is structured in tranches is a “multi-class” ABS (as opposed to a “single-class” ABS where all investors have the same claim on the underlying pool of assets)
5. A ratings agency assigns a rating to the notes/bonds based on (a) the quality of the underlying assets, (b) the securitization structure, and (c) the result of stress tests
6. The loans are usually serviced by a subsidiary of the loan originator. The subsidiary collects payments from the borrowers on behalf of the SPE in exchange for a fee

IFRS 16 vs ASC 842 [Video]

ASC 842 is the section of the U.S. accounting rules codification that governs accounting for leases. ASC 842 was issued in February of 201640 and has many similarities to IFRS 16. For example, both ASC 842 and IFRS 16 require lessees to capitalize leases with a lease term of more than one year. However, there are several key differences between ASC 842 and IFRS 16. These differences mainly pertain to the lessee’s perspective. The most significant difference is that ASC 842 requires lessees to conduct a classification test to determine whether a lease will be treated as a finance lease or an operating lease. If the lease is classified as an operating lease, the lessee recognizes both interest expense on the lease liability and amortization expense on the right-of-use asset. However, the lessee amortizes the right-of-use asset in such a way that total lease expense is the same for each period. In short, the lessee first calculates interest expense and then calculates amortization expense as the plug that will make total lease expense the same amount each period. Thus, lessees report a single amount for lease expense that is the same from period to period. Another important difference is that ASC 842 doesn’t has an exception for leases of low-value assets. Recall that IFRS 16 requires lessees to capitalize all leases, except (a) short-term leases of 12 months or less and (b) leases of assets that have a value of $5,000 or less. With ASC 842, the exception is only available for short-term leases of 12 months or less. For lessors, ASC 842 relies on quantitative criteria to determine whether a lease should be classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. IFRS 16 says this determination should be based on the substance of the transaction.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

The Difference between a Top-tier and a Low-tier Business School [Video]

I’ve taught at several different business schools, and I’ve found that both higher-tier and lower-tier business schools teach the same business concepts. You’ll learn about Porter’s Five Forces, the four P’s of marketing, and the financial statements. So if you’re learning the same concepts, why do some people try so hard to get into a top business school? I mean, why does it matter where you go to school? It matters because classroom learning is just one aspect of the business school experience. What you get out of business school is also a function of: • The quality of the school’s alumni network and faculty, as well as your classmates • The helpfulness of the school’s career center • The reputation of the school and its ability to become a recruiting target for top firms — Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
