The mortgage market's data challenge
Getting quality data for mortgage-backed securities.
Using sophisticated analytics, investors can now dig into the individual loans within any MBS and see exactly what they’re buying.
U.S. mortgage debt currently stands in excess of $12 trillion, and the majority of this debt is held by institutional investors via mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and agency bonds.
These institutional investors and mortgage dealers are tasked with developing accurate risk models to help them make decisions relating to, for example, price, yield and risk. Given that the majority of mortgages involved in these complex computations were initiated before financial markets embraced digitization, there remains a vast quantity of mortgage data that is neither standardized nor usable. Furthermore, as the breadth and depth of data available in the mortgage market continues to grow, incoming data may be ‘dirty’, disconnected and non-standardized.
