medium · Asset-Backed Securities waterfalls

If a transaction is structured with a 'split waterfall', how are interest collections and principal collections typically handled?

  1. Principal collections pay the servicing fee if interest is insufficient
  2. All collections are combined and paid sequentially to the senior-most bond
  3. Interest collections are used to build the reserve account before any principal is paid
  4. Interest collections pay bond coupons, while principal collections pay down bond principal
