Auto Lending--Interest Rate Risk (IRR), Proposed Capital Requirements, & Collateral Values
A. Why Analyze the IRR of Auto Loan Portfolios?
1. We know very little about their IRR attributes
2. Virtually no work done in this area--industry-wide data is not available
3. There are more positive IRR and liquidity characteristics than widely recognized
4. What is the impact of making long-term auto loans?
5. What are we looking for?
a. prepayment data
d. average life
b. indirect loan yields
e. interest rate risk (IRR)
c. liquidity characteristics f. Prepayment sensitivity to interest rates
6. Reference: "Interest Rate Risk & Auto Loan Portfolios," a paper available at

B. Analyzing Interest Rate Risk
1. Asset-Backed Securities (ABS) vs Fully Seasoned Portfolios-- Analyzing the data
2. An institutional portfolio is very different--"seasoned" vs "fully seasoned"
3. A Case Study of actual loan portfolios of
a. 5,773 New Auto Loans totaling $89M 26,530 Used Auto Loans totaling $260M
b. Monthly data goes back 9.5 years (114 observations)
4. Breaking down the data for the new car portfolio
End Balance Jun 13 ($ in 000s) Less: Beginning Balance
= Monthly Change Less: New Loans
= Total Principal Payoffs
$89,056 $86,083
$2,973 $6,800 ($3,827)

5. Using the average original term of 62 months and the portfolio yield 3.58%, the CONTRACTUAL portion of the monthly payoff was estimated to be $2,669 so we have the following
$3,828 Total Prin. Payoffs $2,669 Contractual Prin. Payoffs $1,158 Est. Prepayment Portion
6. This prepayment was 1.35% of the beginning loan balance or about 16.1% annualized for this month. The process was repeated monthly over the entire period.
7. Average annualized prepayment speed over the entire period was
12.5% new autos 15.5% used autos
8. Weighted Average Life (WAL) of Fully Seasoned Auto Loan Portfolios (in months) at various prepayment speeds:
0% CPR 5% CPR 15% CPR 25% CPR
New Autos
21.7
20.3
18.0
16.1
Used Autos 19.3
18.2
16.4
14.8
*The weighted average life (WAL) is the weighted average time to receipt of the principal cash flows. Generally, this term also refers to the time it takes to get back one-half of the principal.

9. Note That the WAL is insensitive to significant errors in prepayment speeds
10. A laddered investment portfolio with an average maturity of 18 months is so short it is not only low-risk, it is risk-reducing. So is the typical CU auto loan portfolio!
11. Strong & stable cash flows are available for both liquidity and repricing
C. Impact of Interest Rates on Auto Prepayments 1. How did this issue arise? 2. Review prepayments in the mortgage loan market--Data is available in MBS market for use in ALM modeling 3. Exhibit 1, NEW AUTO LOAN PREPAYMENTS & INTEREST RATES

D. What is unique about auto loan portfolios relative to mortgage loan portfolios?
1. Autos are depreciating assets unlike (most) homes
2. They usually can't be refinanced at a lower rate due to age & condition
3. Very short average lives so monthly cash flows are mostly contractual principal
4. Initial LTV ratios are often quite high so the "upside down" effect limits the ability to refinance
5. Cash flows are very stable unlike those of mortgage loans
6. Rising interest rates may curtail new car sales and thus trade-ins but
rising rates may be due to stronger economy and induce more car
sales and trade-ins and thus prepayments

7. Summary comments on Interest Rate Risk (IRR) & Liquidity Effects
E. Proposed Risk-weighted Capital Requirements on Auto Loans-- A comment
1. "Consumer loans" include auto loans, credit cards, other lines of credit
2. Proposed risk weights on consumer loans = 75%; does this make sense?
3. Look at loss experience of credit cards vs auto loans, IRR and liquidity risk mitigation of auto portfolios
4. The breakdown should be secured vs unsecured with lower risk weight for secured
F. Collateral Values & Amortization Term of Loan
1. The Problem--Offering an extended term coupled with LTVs > 100 increases collateral and "upside down" risk
2. 8-to-10-year car loans--does this make sense?
3. Perverse incentive to perform
4. What about interest rate risk?
