This includes forecasting the expected current value of the portfolio in current and changing interest rate environments. The single largest assumption within the portfolio valuation is the customer’s prepayment probability (borrowers refinancing, moving or otherwise paying off their loan prior to maturity). A second driver of the portfolio valuation is defaults. Prepayment and default model accuracy are therefore critical to the valuation process. My position is integral to the reporting, analysis and monitoring of prepayment and default behavior for the WFHL portfolio. I am responsible for understanding the key drivers for prepayment and default behavior, monitoring and tracking model performance and making recommendations for model improvements to Executive Management. I partner with SPM Data and Financial Engineering Teams to ensure the data and tools meet the requirements to support the analytical process. Show less
