Strategy
For 15 years we have monetized prepayment risk of Agency MBS for our clients.
Predicting when homeowners will prepay their mortgages — whether through refinancing, home sale, or default — is essential to monetizing MBS, because prepayments are the single most important driver of cash flows and valuations.
We convert borrower-behavior intelligence into durable MBS investment performance — validated by a long and successful track record.
ANALYZE
We rigorously track and analyze real-world borrower behavior.
PREDICT
We construct proprietary, data-driven models to help predict borrower behavior with precision.
Our strategy lies in anticipating future prepayment dynamics
