<\/a><\/p>\nIn the table above, the index value is expressed as a monthly draw rate, equal to the amount of Line of Credit draws taken in any given month, divided by the Total Line of Credit Amount available at the beginning of that month. The index applies to loans with a Line of Credit feature, and does not include fixed monthly \u201cTerm\u201d or \u201cTenure\u201d payments. Unseasoned Loans are defined as loans originated no more than 2 years ago, and Seasoned Loans as loans originated more than 2 years ago.<\/p>\n
Each month, Ginnie Mae releases pool level and loan level data on their HMBS securities and the loans underlying those securities. This comprehensive Ginnie Mae data repository enables a greater understanding of the underlying loan characteristics and behavior that drive performance within the reverse mortgage industry. Prepayment, Default, and Draw behavior are the Big Three of Reverse Mortgage performance indicators.<\/p>\n
We estimate that existing HECM loans securitized into HMBS are generating about $205 million in \u201cTails,\u201d consisting of approximately $96 million in line of credit draws each month in the monthly adjustable segment, $31 million in the annual adjustable product segment, $53 million per month in Mortgage Insurance Premium (\u201cMIP\u201d) advances, $10 million Term\/Tenure Draws, and $15 million in excess spread. The excess spread, or \u201cServicing Fee Margin,\u201d represents the excess of the HECM loan interest rate over the HMBS interest or \u201cParticipation\u201d rate, generally 0.36% per annum. The issuer\u2019s net excess is 0.30%, as Ginnie Mae\u2019s HMBS insurance fee is 6 basis points. Because these new Tail issuances generally sell at a premium, HMBS Tails are a crucial component of industry profitability.<\/p>\n
Draw behavior depends on several factors, but for investors, lenders, and HMBS issuers none is more important than loan age. The draw rate affects prepayment rates, HMBS \u201cTail\u201d issuance, even frequency and severity of defaults. For all market participants, an accurate measure of draw rates is essential for managing cash flow, forecasting future capital needs and profitability, and measuring enterprise risk.<\/p>\n
Draw rates follow the loan life cycle: draws tend to be higher in the early years of a loan, then decline to a stable plateau as the loan matures. The draw amount for many HECM loans is restricted in the first year, a program change introduced by FHA for FY2014. As a result, the overall draw rate jumps materially in month 13 (a complete report showing draw rate by loan age month is available by subscription). This explains why 12 month adjustable draw rates are lower but converging with the Monthly Adjustable Loans. Annual adjustable loans are a relatively new product; only a handful of these loans are seasoned more than 2 years. However, each month a larger and larger number of annually adjustable loans reach the expiration of the restricted draw period. As a result, the Annual Adjustable loan draw rates are converging with the Monthly Adjustable Rates.<\/p>\n
