Fitch Ratings has affirmed the rating on the New Jersey Higher Education Student Assistance Authority (NJHESAA) student loan revenue bonds issued under the 2010-2 master trust indenture. The Rating Outlook is Stable. Fitch's Global Structured Finance Rating Criteria and Private Student Loan Asset-Backed Securities (ABS) Criteria were used to review the transaction. The rating actions are detailed at the end of this press release.
Fitch affirms the ratings on the bonds based on loss coverage multiples which are sufficient to support an 'Asf' rating on the bonds which was calculated using collateral performance data as of Dec. 31, 2011. A Stable Outlook has been maintained based upon Fitch's review of the credit enhancement and cash flows run less than one year ago in July 2011.
A loss coverage multiple was determined by comparing a projected net loss amount to available credit enhancement. Fitch used historical vintage loss data provided by NJHESAA to form a loss timing curve representative of the 2010-2 trust's collateral pool. After giving credit for seasoning of loans in repayment, Fitch applied the trust's current cumulative gross loss level to this loss timing curve to derive the expected gross losses over the projected remaining life. A recovery rate was applied, which was determined to be appropriate based on the latest data provided by the issuer.
Credit enhancement consists of excess spread and overcollateralization. Fitch assumed excess spread to be the lesser of the average historical excess spread (earnings on the assets minus interest payments to bondholders and fees) and the most recent 12-month average excess spread, and applied that same rate over the stressed projection of remaining life.
The collateral supporting NJHESAA's 2010-2 trust's notes consists entirely of private student loans originated and serviced by NJHESAA, which is not rated by Fitch. The private student loans are intended to assist individuals in financing their undergraduate or graduate education beyond what the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) affords. The private student loan collateral as well as the student loan revenue bonds have a fixed interest rate, so there is no basis risk in this transaction.
