July prepayment commentary

US Securitized Products

Aggregate prepays for 30yr conventionals decreased by 3% in July, driven by negative

housing seasonals, partly offset by one additional day count. Aggregate prepays for G2

Multis decreased by 5%, peak prepays were lower for VA 5.5s but remain unchanged for

other higher coupons. Post-peak prepays were also mostly unchanged in G2 5.0-7.0s.

In August, we expect aggregate prepays to decline further due to a back up in driving

mortgage rates (10-15bp higher), negative housing seasonals (-3%) and a lower day

count.

Net issuance reached $96bn (+$12bn YoY): Monthly gross/net issuance decreased to

$112bn/$16bn in July from $119bn/$19bn in June. Ginnie net issuance totaled $20bn and

conventional net issuance totaled -$4bn in July. Ginnie continues to drive net issuance in

2026 YTD, totaling $104bn vs -$7bn for conventionals. Hybrid ARM issuance increased to

$5.5bn in July from $4.2bn in June.
