| Abstract: | This article considers the valuation of a new and important class of structured debt, the commercial mortgage-backed security. The securities present a unique set of valuation issues that differ from those associated with most other asset-backed securities. An appropriate determination of default risk is critical to accurate commercial mortgage-backed security pricing, meaning that property value underlying each mortgage in the pool must be considered as a state variable. A combined backward/forward simulation approach is employed to value such security, which allows to exploit the independence of borrower default decisions and to overcome dimensionality problems associated with a large number of state variables. |
