Valuing Vulnerable Mortgage Insurance Under Capital Forbearance

Abstract: This study sets up a contingent-claim framework incorporating the default risk of a mortgage insurer and the capital forbearance of regulators to value mortgage insurance (MI) contracts. We further investigate how critical policy parameters, such as capital requirements, prompt closure, and time of delay, relate to the MI premium by deriving a closed-form solution and evaluating its partial derivatives. The solutions show a negative cross effect of forbearance threshold and time delay on MI, indicating that a … Show more

“…Forbearance is rarely mentioned in the literature and where it is present the discussions are limited to its financial and economic roots. For instance, Lee et al ( 2005 ) discuss the consequences of banks failing to retain sufficient capital to meet their obligations but are allowed to continue to operate and are thereby the recipients of ‘capital forbearance’ (Chang & Yu, 2017 ). Interestingly, and highlighting the non-financial repercussions of such an event, they state “ Forbearance causes a failing bank to adopt risk-shifting portfolio strategies, a situation known in the literature as moral hazard ” (p. 224).…”
