Compute the Theoretical Yield to Maturity of a Mortgage Pool

Given an option-adjusted spread, a spot curve, and a prepayment assumption, compute the theoretical yield to maturity of a mortgage pool. First, create the bonds matrix:

Bonds = [datenum('11/21/2002')  0        100  0  2  1;
         datenum('02/20/2003')  0        100  0  2  1;
         datenum('07/31/2004')  0.03     100  2  3  1;
         datenum('08/15/2007')  0.035    100  2  3  1;
         datenum('08/15/2012')  0.04875  100  2  3  1;
         datenum('02/15/2031')  0.05375  100  2  3  1];

Choose a settlement date.

Settle = datenum('20-Aug-2002');

Assume the following clean prices for the bonds:

Prices =  [ 98.97467;
            98.58044;
           100.10534;
            98.18054;
           101.38136;
            99.25411];

Use the following formula to compute spot compounding for the bonds:

SpotCompounding = 2*ones(size(Prices));

Compute the zero curve.

[ZeroRatesP, CurveDatesP] = zbtprice(Bonds, Prices, Settle);
ZeroCurve = [CurveDatesP, ZeroRatesP, SpotCompounding]

ZeroCurve = 6×3
105 ×

Assign the following parameters:

OAS           = [26.0502; 28.6348; 31.2222];
Maturity      = datenum('02-Jan-2030');
IssueDate     = datenum('02-Jan-2000');
GrossRate     = 0.08125;
CouponRate    = 0.075;
Delay         = 14;
Interpolation = 1;
PrepaySpeed   = [0 50 100];

Compute the mortgage yield and bond equivalent mortgage yield.

[MYield BEMBSYield] = mbsoas2yield(ZeroCurve, OAS, Settle, ...
Maturity, IssueDate, GrossRate, CouponRate, Delay, ... 
Interpolation, PrepaySpeed)

MYield = 3×1

    0.0527
    0.0513

BEMBSYield = 3×1

    0.0533
    0.0518
    0.0504

Input Arguments

ZeroCurve — Zero curve

matrix

Zero curve, specified as a three-column matrix, where:

• Column 1 is dates using serial date numbers.

• Column 2 is spot rates with maturities corresponding to the dates in Column 1, in decimal (for example, 0.075).

• Column 3 is the compounding value of the rates in Column 2. (This is the agency spot rate on the settlement date.) Allowable compounding values are: 1 (annual), 2 (semiannual, 3 (three times per year), 4 (quarterly), 6 (bimonthly), 12 (monthly), and -1 (continuous).

For example:

[datenum('11/21/2002')  0        100  0  2  1;
 datenum('02/20/2003')  0        100  0  2  1;
 datenum('07/31/2004')  0.03     100  2  3  1;
 datenum('08/15/2007')  0.035    100  2  3  1;
 datenum('08/15/2012')  0.04875  100  2  3  1;
 datenum('02/15/2031')  0.05375  100  2  3  1];

More About

Option-Adjusted Spread

The Option-Adjusted Spread (OAS) is a measure used to assess the yield spread of a fixed-income security, such as a bond or mortgage-backed security (MBS), over a benchmark yield curve, typically the risk-free rate or Treasury yields.
