Mortgage Derivative
(redirected from Mortgage Derivatives)

    0.01 sec.
Mortgage Derivative
A security with a value based upon principal and interest payments on a pool of mortgages. This entitles the owner to a claim on the principal and interest payments on the particular mortgages backing the security. The risk of a mortgage derivative ultimately comes from the risk of default of the underlying mortgages. A mortgage-backed security is the most common type of mortgage derivative.
