Abstract:

The paper is focused on the analysis of time to prepayment for a loan-level mortgage data set from Freddie. A general transformation model is used to model the association between the time-to-prepay and loan characteristics. The general transformation model is estimated by a self-induced smoothing non-parametric method. The fit of the model is compared with those of other semi-parametric models as well as parametric ones.
