Record Performance in Freddie Mac’s CRT Program – 0.11% of Loans Seriously Delinquent for Private Lenders
In Freddie Mac’s CRT program, Mortgage loan servicing companies are able to combine credit and mortgage risks to create new securities. This allows for better performance by transmitting the credit risk to investors while still maintaining the mortgage servicing rights. The program has seen record performance in the past year, with only 0.11% of loans becoming seriously delinquent. This is due in part to the fact that the pool of loans is made up of mostly prime loans, which have performed better than expected.
