This example shows how to compute the benchmark default rates on the performing balance of mortgage-backed securities per PSA benchmark speed, given a mortgage-backed security with annual speed set at the PSA default benchmark.

DefaultSpeed = 100;

[ADRPSA, MDRPSA] = psaspeed2default(DefaultSpeed)
ADRPSA = 360×1
