    STACR SPI - Pricing Terms

    STACR SPI transfers credit risk via a cash securitization. Mortgages funded by Freddie Mac’s cash window are deposited into a participation interest (PI) trust, in exchange for a participation interest (96%) and credit participation interest (4%) for each loan. The credit participation interests are deposited into the STACR SPI trust, which then issues non-guaranteed SPI certificates to investors.
