We have converted the ratings into a numerical value by setting 1 for Aaa, 2 for Aa2, 3 for Aa2, and so on. ‘Security Type’ represents the type of securitization of which the tranche is part of, ranging from ABS, RMBS, CMBS, to CLOs. ‘Year’ represents the year in which the security is issued. ‘Spread’ is the quoted margin between the benchmark rate and the coupon of the initial spread, in basis points. ‘Benchmark Rate’ is the market wide benchmark type used for the security at issuance.
