DBRS Takes Rating Actions on 160 U.S. RMBS Transactions
RMBSDBRS, Inc. (DBRS) reviewed 1,169 classes from 160 U.S. residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) transactions. Of the 1,169 classes reviewed, DBRS confirmed 1,078 ratings, upgraded 80 ratings and discontinued 11 ratings.
The rating upgrades reflect positive performance trends and increases in credit support sufficient to withstand stresses at their new rating levels. For transactions where the ratings have been confirmed, current asset performance and credit support levels are consistent with the current ratings. The discontinued ratings are the result of full repayment of principal to bondholders.
The rating actions are the result of DBRS’s application of “RMBS Insight 1.3: U.S. Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Model and Rating Methodology,” published on April 4, 2017.
The transactions consist of U.S. RMBS transactions. The pools backing these transactions consist of prime, Alt-A, subprime, net interest margin, reperforming, seasoned and ReREMIC collateral.
The ratings assigned to the following securities differ from the ratings implied by the quantitative model. DBRS considers this difference to be a material deviation, but in this case, the ratings of the subject notes reflect the structural features and historical performance that constrain the quantitative model output.
