Fixed-rate mortgages
• Locks in the borrower’s interest rate over the life of the
mortgage.
• A financial institution that holds fixed-rate mortgages is
exposed to interest rate risk because it commonly uses
funds obtained from short-term customer deposits to make
long-term mortgages.
• Borrowers with fixed-rate mortgages do not suffer from
rising rates, but they do not benefit from declining rates.
• Amortizing Fixed-Rate Mortgages
• An amortization schedule shows the monthly payments
broken down into principal and interest. (Exhibit 9.3)

Credit risk — the risk that borrower will make a late payment or will
default.
• Hedging Credit Risk with Credit Default Swaps—Financial
institutions that invest funds in mortgages can hedge their exposure
by purchasing a credit default swap (CDS), which is a privately
negotiated contract that protects investors against the risk of default
on particular debt securities such as mortgages.
• Pricing of Credit Default Swaps—Credit default swaps are priced
to reflect the likelihood of default. Like most forms of insurance, the
annual cost to a buyer of a CDS is positively related to the likelihood
of a bad outcome.
• Selling Credit Default Swaps—Some financial institutions are
motivated to sell CDS contracts if they believe that the underlying
debt securities will not default, just as insurance companies are
willing to sell flood insurance if they believe a flood is very unlikely.

Mortgage-Backed Securities (1 of 6)
Securitization:
• The pooling and repackaging of loans into securities.
• Securities are then sold to investors, who become the
owners of the loans represented by those securities.
• The Securitization Process
• A financial institution such as a securities firm or
commercial bank combine individual mortgages together
into packages.
• The issuer of the MBS assigns a trustee to hold the
mortgages as collateral for the investors who purchase the
securities.
• After the securities are sold, the financial institution that
issued the MBS receives interest and principal payments on
the mortgages and then transfers (passes through) the
payments to investors that purchased the securities.

Mortgage Credit Crisis (5 of 10)
Who Is to Blame?
• Mortgage originators — Some mortgage originators
were aggressively seeking new business without
exercising adequate control over quality.
• Credit rating agencies — The rating agencies, which
are paid by the issuers that want their MBS rated, were
criticized for being too lenient in their ratings shortly
before the credit crisis.
• Financial institutions that packaged MBS — Could
have verified the credit ratings assigned by the credit
rating agencies by making their own assessment of the
risks involved.

Mortgage Credit Crisis (7 of 10)
Who Is to Blame?
• Institutional investors that purchased MBS — Relied
heavily on the ratings assigned to MBS by credit rating
agencies without the due diligence of performing their
own independent assessment.
• Financial institutions that insured MBS — Presumed,
incorrectly, that the MBS would not default.
• Speculators of Credit Default Swaps — Many buyers
of CDS contracts on MNS were not holding any
mortgages of MBS that they needed to hedge.
• Conclusion about Blame
• The question of who is to blame will be argued in
courtrooms.
