Two Pricing Perspectives

• Actuarial/Insurance

– premium

• Capital Markets

– yield spread: over Treasuries/LIBOR


Actuarial/Insurance Pricing

• Identify assets/cash flows

• Identify risk(s)

• Gather data

• Build cash flow model

• Run cash flows through deal structure

• Determine Premium, Profit, ROE


Assets / Cash Flows

• Receivables Collection cycle

• CBO/CLO Pools of debt (bonds, bank loans)

• Entertainment Film receipts

• Real estate Commercial/residential property


Risks (Quantitative)

• Receivables Credit defaults, price/volume

• CBO/CLO Bond/loan defaults, interest rates

• Entertainment Film performance

• Real estate Property value, rent income

• All transactions Correlation to economy


Data Sources

• Commodities Commodities futures exchange, Bloomberg,

company

• CBO/CLO Moody’s, S&P, sponsoring bank/company

• Entertainment MPAA, company

• Real estate Company, FHA, FDIC, private industry study

• All transactions Offering Memorandum


Cash Flow Modeling – Common Challenges

• Company’s business model / economics of industry

• Stochastic modeling / simulation– mean, standard deviation, distribution of key variable(s)

• Scenario testing– stress tests; where is deal’s “break point”?

– effect of recession

• Correlations– between variables

– between assets/cash flows

– to economy (cyclical, counter-cyclical, recession-proof)


Receivables - Cash Flows

• Credit defaults on receivables

– historical ratio: defaults receivables

– strength of obligors

• Price/volume of commodity being produced

– range of price fluctuation

– effect of recession on price, volume

– obligor concentration risk

CBO/CLO – Cash Flows(Default Rates)

• Default Rate (frequency) = % of bonds/loans defaulting

– Annual, multi-year

• Moody’s/S&P credit ratings of bonds/loans in portfolio (Aaa, Aa1, …)

• Correlation between bonds/loans

– Diversity Score: translate portfolio into homogeneous, independent debt

securities

• Binomial distribution


CBO/CLO – Cash Flows (Severity)

• Severity = 1 - Recovery Rate

• Recovery Rate = post-default market value par value

• Moody’s/S&P credit ratings of portfolio notes (Aaa, Aa1, …)

• Normal, Lognormal distribution

• Correlation between frequency, severity

• Loss rate = Default rate x Severity

CBO/CLO – Moody’s Diversity Score

• Avg default rate = p, Diversity score = n, Recovery rate = r– p = weighted avg of individual bond default rates

• n selected to equate loss variance

• Decreasing n increasing volatility & correlation– binomial C.V. =

– n depends on industry concentration

• S&P method: increase p with industry concentration, assume independence

Expec Loss = 1,500,000 Loss Rate = 2.5%


Entertainment – Cash Flows (Film Co.)

• Coverage ratio = film revenue production cost– mean

– standard deviation

• Box office, licensing, pay-per-view, international

• Film revenue stream

• Correlation between films


Real Estate – Cash Flows

• Occupancy rates

• Average rents

• Capital structure (debt, equity)

• Property value

– cash flow discount rate

• Mortgages unrated, use industry data (FHA, FDIC)

• Strong correlation to economy


Modeling Deal Structure

• Tranched (layered) vs Syndicated (pari passu) securities

• Cash flow waterfall

• Equity, subordination structure

• Early amortization triggers

• Indemnification provisions

• Floating rates

• Impact on insurer’s profit & risk


Capital Markets Pricing

• Premium vs. yield spread between unwrapped notes and insurer credit rating

• Insurance vs. levered investment in unwrapped securities

(insurer = investor)

Model Metrics

• Debt service coverage ratios = cash flow / debt service

• Balance sheet: equity, debt– % collateralization (value of collateral / full limits loss)– CBO collateral/CBO principal– loan/value (real estate, mortgages)

• Default probability & Loss rate (principal, interest, premium) – compare to Moody’s ratings

• Transaction break point

• Insurer present value profit/(loss)

• Relative risk/reward of tranches (IRR)


CBO Example

p = 24.5% T = 6.5%r = 50.0% Expenses = 1.00%s.d. (r) = 25.6% Insurer Prem = 2.25%Maturity = 5 yrs Insurer Rating = Aa2
