# Indicates remaining tenure of the pool as of December 2010 payouts. The actual tenure will depend on the level of prepayments in the pool, change in the tenure of the loans, and the exercise of the repurchase/clean up call option.

CRISIL has assigned its ‘BBB(so)’ credit opinion to the second loss credit enhancements, and reaffirmed its ‘AAA(so)’ credit opinion on the acquirer principals, of four mortgage pools originated by Standard Chartered Bank (SCB; rated ‘AAA/Negative/P1+’ by CRISIL). SCB, in its capacity as the credit enhancement provider, proposes to split the original credit enhancement into first loss and second loss credit enhancements.

The credit opinions on the second loss credit enhancements are based on the credit quality of the pool cash flows, the performance of the pool till date, SCB’s origination and servicing capabilities, the payment mechanism, soundness of the legal structure, and the credit protection provided by the transaction’s first loss credit enhancement. CRISIL has also factored in the basis risk arising from the difference between the pool yield and the acquirer yield, both of which can change because of movements in the benchmark retail prime lending rates (RPLRs) of SCB and the acquirer.

The performance of the pools has been strong so far, with the cover provided by the first and second loss credit enhancements being commensurate with the reaffirmed ratings. firmed ratings.
