Octant Analytics

Precision instruments for fixed income.

Octant Analytics builds quantitative models for fixed-income investors. The first is the Octant Prepay Model (OPM): a structural, loan-level prepayment and credit suite covering seven agency and government mortgage products, fitted on billions of loan-months, decomposing each CPR into the channels that drive it. The forecaster on this page is a live demonstration — enter a loan and see the model’s output under your own scenario.

The forecaster is free to use. No card, no trial clock, no sales call.

Products

Inside OPM: six fitted models, not one model with six switches

Each book is fitted on its own data with its own channels and its own era behaviour. A VA IRRRL does not prepay like a USDA loan, and neither of them prepays like a conventional 30-year.

Conventional

Fannie/Freddie 30- and 15-year fixed. The full channel decomposition: turnover, refi, equity take-out, curtailment.

FHA

Ginnie FHA, with the MIP ledger, the streamline channel and the distressed-sale path.

VA

Ginnie VA, with the IRRRL S-curve and the shoulder behaviour that makes VA the fastest book in the market.

USDA

GN USDA — a small book that behaves like nothing else, and is usually modelled as if it were FHA.

Conventional ARM

Conventional hybrid ARMs on the reset clock: teaser, first reset, and the floater behaviour after it.

Ginnie Gov ARM

Ginnie FHA/VA hybrids under the real 1/1/5 contract — the only forecast here whose coupon actually resets.

What the model produces

Channel decomposition

Not a single CPR number — the four (or five) channels that sum to it, for every month of the horizon. This is what a single-number vendor curve cannot provide.

Parallel rate shocks

The same loan at −200 through +200 basis points, run over its whole remaining life, showing where the S-curve bends for that specific loan rather than for a cohort average.

Scenario Analysis

Rate path, housing activity, HPA and refi capacity are all yours to set. The factor paths are shown, so you can see what the scenario did to the answer.

Monthly output

Every month, every channel, exported to your own spreadsheet.
