The memorandum summarizes a meeting between FDIC management and staff and representatives from the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA). The MBA representatives expressed concerns to the FDIC about the proposed definition of a Qualified Mortgage (QM) in the Ability to Repay rule under the Dodd-Frank Act. Specifically, the MBA is concerned that the proposed definition and requirements could unduly tighten credit availability and increase costs. The QM definition is important because it provides protections from legal liability for loans that meet the QM standards.

The Supreme Court of India held that the Reserve Bank of India's Master Circular on wilful defaults applies to derivative transactions in addition to normal lending. [1] There was previously conflicting interpretations between the Calcutta and Bombay High Courts on this issue. [2] The Supreme Court interpreted the term "wilful default" broadly to include defaults on payment obligations to banks under facilities like derivatives. [3] This ruling strengthens banks' ability to restrict funding to companies that default on derivative contracts.
This document summarizes Jeffrey Peek's remarks from a Lehman Brothers Financial Services Conference on September 8, 2008.

MFI financing and currency risk: current mitigants and innovative instrumentsGuadalupe de la Mata
This document discusses mechanisms to mitigate foreign exchange and currency risk for microfinance institutions (MFIs). It outlines traditional options used by donors and MFIs, such as lending in local currency, matching foreign currency liabilities to assets, and creating foreign currency reserves. It also explores other options like improving MFI access to local financial and capital markets through loan guarantees and bond guarantees. Finally, it discusses tapping international capital markets through private equity funds that invest in MFIs in local currency, and microfinance debt funds that provide loans to MFIs across currencies to diversify risk.
This document discusses the debate around the economic efficiency of secured credit. It outlines some of the major theories that have been proposed to both support and criticize the efficiency of secured credit, such as signaling theory and monitoring/bonding theory. However, the document notes that after decades of analysis, no consensus has emerged on whether secured credit is truly efficient. While some argue it lowers borrowing costs, others believe it simply redistributes value from unsecured to secured creditors. Overall, the debate remains contested with reasonable arguments on both sides.
The document is a report from the Government Accountability Office that analyzes options for revising the long-term structures of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It finds that the enterprises have a mixed record in meeting their missions and capital deficiencies compromised their safety and soundness.

This document discusses key considerations for IT contracting guarantees when a material adverse change occurs with the guarantor. It recommends that guarantees: (1) obligate payment if the supplier breaches and continue services, as money is not sufficient; and (2) address what constitutes a material adverse change and remedies. For public companies, a credit rating drop defines material adverse change, while for private companies, the customer reasonably defines it. The remedy is typically an immediately available letter of credit as additional security for the customer. Provisions should also permit removing the additional security if the guarantor can show the material adverse change was rectified.
RMBS_ Reverse Mortgage Securitisation Global Rating Methodology.pdfjujonet1
This document outlines KBRA's methodology for rating reverse mortgage securitisations. Some key aspects covered include:
1) Reverse mortgages have unique characteristics compared to traditional mortgages, such as no required monthly payments and the loan balance growing over time. KBRA models the timing and amount of loan repayments driven by mortality, morbidity and other prepayment events.
2) KBRA evaluates originators and servicers, focusing on processes for property valuation, ability to meet non-debt obligations, sales/suitability and regulatory compliance for originators, and monitoring repayment events and property liquidation for servicers.
3) Transaction due diligence may include reviews of data integrity, credit underwriting and property
PowerPoint Presentation - Mezzanine Finance.PPTXBrooks S. Clark
Mezzanine financing involves a loan from a mezzanine lender to the corporate entity that owns the mortgage borrower. The mezzanine loan is secured by a pledge of the ownership interests in the mortgage borrower. Typically, the mortgage borrower will be a single purpose LLC owned by another single purpose LLC that is the mezzanine borrower. The mezzanine loan documents include a loan agreement, pledge and security agreement, and intercreditor agreement between the mezzanine and mortgage lenders governing their relationship and priorities. The mezzanine lender perfects its security interest through UCC filing and taking possession of the ownership interests in the mortgage borrower.

CFPB Finalizes Ability-to-Repay Rule for Mortgage LendersPatton Boggs LLP
The CFPB finalized rules on ability-to-repay requirements for mortgage lenders, including defining a "Qualified Mortgage." Lenders must verify borrowers' income, assets, debts and be able to repay both principal and interest long-term. Loans meeting certain standards including debt-to-income ratios below 43% qualify as Qualified Mortgages, for which lenders are presumed compliant. The CFPB also proposed exemptions for smaller lenders and nonprofit programs. The rules seek to prevent risky lending and take effect January 2014.

This document discusses on-bill repayment (OBR) programs for energy efficiency loans in California. It argues that OBR could increase energy efficiency project uptake by providing more convenient, low-cost financing. However, it notes that the term "OBR" was used to describe different concepts. It then analyzes how OBR programs with and without disconnection policies could impact loan volume, affordability, and ability to attract capital. While OBR may increase volume, it likely would not significantly impact affordability or capital attraction without a disconnection policy.
Lev Finance Cov Lite article July 2014John Sweeney
The document summarizes concerns from Standard & Poor's about rising levels of covenant-lite loans, particularly 'B' rated loans. There has been a large increase in covenant-lite issuance in recent years, with over half of 2014 covenant-lite loans being 'B' rated. While covenant-lite loans have historically seen slightly lower defaults, recoveries are also slightly lower. If economic conditions deteriorate, default rates for covenant-lite and traditional loans could spike above past crisis levels, especially for 'B' rated loans which have higher inherent risk. The proliferation of risky 'B' rated covenant-lite loans leaves borrowers vulnerable if a future liquidity crisis restricts refinancing options.
Credit default swaps (CDS) are contracts that transfer credit risk from one party to another. A CDS controls credit risk, while an interest rate swap controls interest rate risk. If a reference entity experiences a credit event like default, the protection seller compensates the buyer. Restructuring is a controversial credit event because it can trigger a payout even for routine debt restructurings. A CDS has an option-like payoff because payment depends on a credit event occurring. For asset-backed securities, the focus is on cash flow adequacy rather than bankruptcy. Physical settlement of a CDS involves delivery of the reference obligation, while cash settlement involves a payment equal to the price difference.
This document summarizes a presentation by Terry W. Clemans on rapid rescoring and compliance infractions. The presentation discusses (1) new conflicts between various financial regulations regarding loan originator compensation and the rescoring of mortgages, (2) definitions of compensation under the relevant rules, and (3) issues with the Credit Repair Organization Act's prohibition of upfront fees for credit services that could restrict how rescoring fees are charged. The presentation seeks answers to compliance challenges but notes more legislative or regulatory action may be needed to resolve conflicts between the rules.
The document summarizes the origins and spread of the 2007-2009 financial crisis. Key factors included the rise of subprime lending during the housing boom, deregulation of the banking industry, and the growth of complex financial instruments like securitization of subprime mortgages, collateralized debt obligations, and credit default swaps, which spread risk but lacked transparency and regulation. These issues led to a collapse in the housing market starting in 2005 and the full crisis in 2007-2008.

It discusses the requirements for providing the Loan Estimate within 3 days of application, the good faith tolerances for closing costs, requirements for revised disclosures, and timing for delivering the Closing Disclosure. The course also addresses additional federal laws on pre-disclosure fees, consumer intent to proceed, and exceptions to the new TRID rules.
Credit rating agencies provide independent credit ratings that assess an entity's ability and willingness to repay debt. The document discusses the origin and importance of credit rating agencies in India, including how they help investors, corporations, and policymakers. It outlines the key factors credit rating agencies consider like debt repayment environment, wealth creation capability, and repayment sources. The three main credit rating agencies in India are CRISIL, ICRA, and CARE, which were established in the late 1980s and 1990s and are regulated by SEBI and RBI. Credit ratings are given for various financial instruments and entities to help with investment decisions and promote financial discipline.
The document summarizes the key points of the President's plan to help homeowners and stabilize the housing market. The plan includes: 1) allowing more homeowners to refinance their mortgages to save $3,000 per year on average; 2) establishing a Homeowner Bill of Rights with strong federal standards to protect homeowners; 3) piloting a program to transition foreclosed homes into rental properties to stabilize prices. It also aims to provide unemployed homeowners extended forbearance on mortgage payments and investigate misconduct in mortgage origination and servicing.

The memorandum summarizes discussions from a CPUC workshop about On Bill Repayment (OBR) programs in California. Key points made include:
1) There was lack of consistency around terminology, with OBR meaning different things to different parties.
2) The workshop aimed to explore how OBR could help California increase energy efficiency loan volumes and project comprehensiveness.
3) An OBR program without disconnection may increase loan volumes by making loans easy for contractors and consumers, but likely would not significantly impact affordability or capital attraction for lenders since it lacks disconnection as a repayment mechanism.

The document summarizes a webinar discussing opportunities under the 112th Congress to influence new policy regarding the mortgage industry. It outlines goals to amend Dodd-Frank regulations regarding loan originator compensation, appraisal independence, the merged TILA/RESPA disclosure form, and liability provisions. It also discusses providing comments to the Fed regarding its interim final rule implementing Dodd-Frank appraisal reforms and its loan originator compensation rule.
This document summarizes requests regarding federal policy concerns with regulations implementing the Dodd-Frank Act. It seeks to: 1) ensure regulations do not require fixed loan origination prices; 2) preserve consumer options to pay origination fees upfront or through interest rates; 3) amend ability-to-repay and safe harbor provisions to protect borrowers; 4) ensure fair liability standards for mortgage originators; 5) allow mortgage professionals to order appraisals as directed by the Federal Reserve; and 6) establish standards for appraisal portability.

QM - Dodd Frank Act - MBA Presentation 2/28/2012 to FDIC
1. Memorandum
To: Public File – The Federal Reserve Board’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking:
Ability to Repay under Regulation Z and defining Qualified Mortgages (12 C.F.R.
Part 226; RIN 7100-AD75).
From: FDIC Staff
Date: February 28, 2012
Subject: Meeting with Mortgage Bankers Association
On February 28, 2012, FDIC management (Jonathan Miller, Luke Brown, Kieth Ernst,
and Karyen Chu) and staff (Janet Gordon, Richard Foley, Michael Briggs, Sandra Barker,
and Kathleen Keest) participated in a meeting with representatives from the Mortgage
Bankers Association (David H. Stevens, Tamara I King, Stephen A. O'Connor, Kevin
Christopher Pezzani, Lisa I. Klika, Shawn M Krause, Michael C Fratantoni, Samuel B.
Morelli, Sr., Philip F. DeFronzo, Michael Joseph McQuiggan, Joshua A Weinberg,
Kyung H. Cho-Miller, Michael S. Malloy, Kenneth A Markison, Nathan J. Burch,
Lawrence Daniel Moss, and Hollis Beckner). The Mortgage Bankers Association
representatives presented their concerns about the Qualified Mortgage definition in the
Ability to Repay Rule (Regulation Z) proposed for comment pursuant to the Dodd-Frank
Act by the Federal Reserve Board on April 19, 2011. Rulemaking authority under the
Truth in Lending Act transferred to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)
on July 21, 2011. The CFPB is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to consult with FDIC
on this rulemaking.

8. Four Ways to Comply with Ability to Repay,
Including QM Proposal
1. Originating mortgage loan after considering and verifying eight factors,
including consumer’s:
(a) current or reasonably expected income
(b) employment status, if creditor relies on income from consumer’s employment
(c) monthly payment on mortgage based on fully indexed rate and amortizing
payments that are substantially equal
(d) monthly payment on any simultaneous loan creditor knows or has reason
to know will be made
(e) consumer’s monthly payment for mortgage-related obligations
(f) consumer’s current debt obligations
(g) consumer’s monthly DTI ratio or residual income
(h) consumer’s credit history

Safe Harbor Alternative
2. Originating ’Qualified Mortgage" (QM). Proposes alternative definitions of QM
with different degrees of protection from liability:
Alternative A: Legal safe harbor - To qualify as QM a loan must not have certain
product features including:
(a) negative amortization, interest-only or balloon payments,
or loan term exceeding 30 years
(b) total points and fees exceeding three percent of loan amount
(with alternative thresholds proposed for smaller loans) and
(c) must be underwritten: based on maximum interest rate in first five years
(d) must be underwritten: using payment schedule that fully amortizes loan
over loan term
(e) must be underwritten: taking into account any mortgage-related obligations
(f) Also requires creditor must: consider and verify income or assets of consumer

different degrees of protection from liability:

11. Significant Liability for Failing to Meet Ability to Repay
Sec. 1411 of Dodd-Frank - Prohibits creditors from making mortgage loan without
reasonable and good faith determination of consumer’s ability to repay loan
Sec. 1412 - Allows creditor to presume loan meets ability to repay requirement
if loan is QM
Sec. 1413 - Allows consumer to assert violation of ability to repay by creditor
in foreclosure action by creditor, assignee or other mortgage holder
Also under TILA - Mortgage creditor who fails to comply with the ability to repay
requirements may be liable for (1) actual damages; (2) up to three years of finance
charges; and (3) court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees
Tuesday, February 28, 2012
12. How QM Is Structured Is Key
Main issue:
+ Safe harbor v. rebuttable presumption - both provide court remedy
+ Bright line v. subjective
Consumers want access to credit at the lowest possible rate.
Lenders need to meet needs of consumers and investors while complying
with applicable statutes and earning reasonable rate of return.
Investors want predictable performance with no hidden liability risks.
The economy functions best when consumers, lenders and investors
all can satisfy their needs.
All of this requires QM rule that includes rigorous but clear bright-line standards to
minimize uncertainty and legal risk for lenders as well as investors and assures legal
remedy and maximum access to affordable credit for borrowers.
Industry supports more rigorous standards for safe harbor than proposed.

Tuesday, February 28, 2012
18. QM Includes Three-Percent Limit on Points and Fees
Limit: QM’s "points and fees" may not be in excess of three percent of the loan amount.
As currently drafted, in addition to fees to lenders and mortgage brokers, points and fees
may include:
L)
(1) charges to title companies affiliated with lenders and others
(2) salaries paid to loan originators (LO)
(3) amounts of insurance and taxes held in escrow
Smaller loans: Proposal would also increase points and fees for smaller loans defined as
those under $75,000 up to five percent on a sliding scale with five percent limit for loans
under $15,000.
Comment: There is no clear data that points and fees limits belong in QM requirements -
points and fees, at least at these amounts, have no bearing on risk.
Tuesday, February 28, 2012
19. Inclusion of Affiliate ees In Three Percent
Lenders and others have affiliated settlement service providers -
26 percent market share in 2006.
Affiliate arrangements add efficiencies to loan process,
including by providing dependable service providers.
Consumers like one-stop shopping.
Under RESPA, affiliate relationships must be disclosed
to consumer and use may not be required.
Lenders have little room to augment fees through affiliates.
Title insurance rates are filed or regulated at state level.
Based on experiences in the State of Kansas, title rates
will climb if affiliates are excluded, and consumers will be harmed.
All third-party fees should be treated the same to avoid market interference.
Tuesday, February 28, 2012
20. Inclusion of LO Lump and Escrows
in Three Percent Limit: Unworkable and Unfair
Fees to lenders and brokerage firms are included in three percent
Includes compensation in the form of bonuses, which is impossible
to ascertain at settlement
Counting both fees to company and individual employee compensation
involves double counting
Loan Officer Compensation (LO Comp) was addressed in 2011 rule
Limiting LO Comp unduly limits service to borrowers, especially the underserved
LO inclusion also threatens to constrain virtually all transactions
Escrows for insurance and taxes may also be included
Homeowners insurance may be included, too

Total payments over life of loan: $257,804 might only have the choice of a higher-
rate loan with a higher monthly payment,
making payments less affordable.
But in order to qualify as a QM under new
regulation, any fees in excess of three points
would get pushed into the rate as follows: Under this example, the new regulation
would "save" the borrower $1,500 in
