Defining Nonagency
Thomas Zimmerman
Executive Director Mortgage Strategy Group UBS
In this chapter I describe the loan and borrower characteristics that distinguish the different parts of the U.S. nonagency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) market. I believe that this description is an important first step in understanding the non-agency market not only because these characteristics define the different sectors but also because they determine each sector's prepayment and credit performance. While many types of loans are found in the nonagency market, I shall focus mainly on jumbo, alternative-A (alt-A), and subprime home equity loans.

At least once in every person’s life comes a time when the need is great and the resources are few. It can be hard enough to make ends meet on a decent wage, but, when the times get tough and the money just is not there to meet the need, a person can easily despair.
