Conclusion
Investors can generate significant added cash flow through
toggle floaters in return for mark-to-market risk. The toggle
buyer is able to sell more leveraged caps than they might
through traditional MBS and pick up incremental spread in the
process. Although interest cash flow drops significantly if the
toggle reaches the LIBOR strike, the strike levels offered are
substantially above the levels of LIBOR seen for most of the
last decade. The structuring flexibility available also allows
the investor to manage the risk/reward relationship of the
security through collateral selection, deal structure, LIBOR
strikes and coupon floors.
