Product Description:
An in-depth look at the latest innovations in mortgage-backed securities
The largest sector of the fixed-income market is the mortgage market. Understanding this market is critical for portfolio managers, as well as issuers who must be familiar with how these securities are structured. Mortgage-Backed Securities is a timely guide to the investment characteristics, creation, and analysis of residential real estate-backed securities. Each chapter contains cutting-edge information for investors, traders, and other professionals involved in this market, including discussions of structuring mortgage products-such as agency CMOs and new types of mortgages-and an in-depth explanation of the concept of option-adjusted spreads and other analytical concepts used to assess relative value.

The guy next to our office was working with AFT/Intex and doing some ABS/MBS modeling. He did some presentation on the subject, but I didn't understood a word he spoke. However, the product looked interesting. So I decided to check it out in this book.
I have to say it is presented very nicely. I only read about 3/4th of the book. I have not used the knowledge for anything yet. So I cannot say how much it has helped me. But the topic is clear and well presented.

Have not read the book from cover to cover yet but whatever random parts I read I got answers to questions I had been having for quite sometime.

I think this book is the new gold standard for MBS. Unlike previous MBS books I have read, this one flows well from chapter to chapter and can actually walk someone new to the field through collateral, structuring and valuation in a logical manner. Excellent job!

The book provides a very complete overview the residential mortgage-backed securities market and is written by two gentlemen that were arguably at "the center of the storm" at Countrywide Securities.
The book is structured nicely taking the reader from a general overview of the MBS market to a detailed look of the process of securitization through to investing in the end securities.
The chapters dedicated to the structuring and credit enhancement techniques of residential ... Read More
