Scoring Models · Prepayment 12-mo
What it does
Gradient-boosting classifier rating a Fannie or Freddie loan's probability
of prepayment (zero_balance_code = '01') within the first
12 months of loan age. Trained on the 2013-2023 GSE cohorts
(~25M loans), isotonic-calibrated. Use for MSR valuation sensitivity,
pipeline lock-desk risk, and pool composition (fast-pay vs slow-pay MBS
routing).
Why it matters. Prepayment speed is the single biggest swing factor in MSR valuation — a 1 CPR misprediction compounds to roughly 10-15% of MSR value over an asset's life. Use the 12-mo signal pre-funding to route fast-pay loans toward TBA premium pools (or sell MSR upfront where you can't make the carry work) and retain slow-pay loans where the future income stream is durable. For pipeline desks, flagged fast-pay loans warrant tighter lock-period rate or float-down restrictions.
