Speed

1. In mortgage-backed securities, the estimated rate at which homeowners will pay off the underlying mortgages of an MBS. The equivalent of the coupon on a mortgage-backed security is a percentage of the interest and principal paid on the mortgages backing the security. A risk associated with mortgage-backed securities is that too many homeowners will pay off their mortgages with too much speed, depriving the holder of the MBS from future interest payments.

Successful supervisors throughout the United States have described how SPED and other academically failing students reversed their poor academic patterns and evidenced statistically higher standardized achievement- and attitude-tests scores within one year of using learning-style strategies (Dunn & DeBello, 1999).
