medium · Asset-Backed Securities regulatory

During a AAA stress test, an agency assumes a 'purchase rate' of 0% for a revolving trade receivables pool.

What is the analytical purpose of this assumption?

  1. It simulates a scenario where the originator becomes insolvent and stops all sales.
  2. It raises the overcollateralization percentage by blocking new subordinate debt issuance.
  3. To test how quickly the bonds are repaid during a 'liquidation' or 'wind-down' of the trust.
  4. It ensures that only the highest-quality, lowest-delinquency accounts remain in the receivables pool.
