tba.gms : Financial Optimization: Financial Engineering

Description

The delivery and settlement of mortgage-backed securities is governed
by an extensive set of rules and regulations. Forward delivery
settlements of not yet pooled mortgages are on a to-be-announced
(TPA) basis. Some allowed variance allows to structure the TBAs in
a cost effective manner.
