Scale and Depth
Monthly auto loan and lease records across 20 tracked issuer families, parsed and normalized from SEC filings
Coverage and Source Lineage
Every normalized field remains traceable to the public filing layer.
| Authoritative source | SEC Form ABS-EE and ABS-EE/A filings with EX-102 Schedule AL asset data files. |
| Coverage start | November 2016, when the Regulation AB-II asset-level disclosure compliance period began. |
| Product scope | U.S. securitized auto loan and lease contracts across 20 tracked issuer families; issuer-panel completeness is checked by reporting month. |
| Update process | Monthly filings are monitored and parsed as they arrive. ABS-EE/A amendments are processed against the related reporting period. |
| Field policy | Official SEC element names are preserved alongside normalized aliases and approved derived analytical fields. |

What You Can Build
Pool-level reports give you one number. Loan-level data lets you cut it any way you need.
Vintage Loss Curves
Track cumulative net losses by origination quarter. Compare vintages within an issuer or across the market to spot underwriting shifts early.
Transition Matrices
Build month-over-month state transition probabilities from individual loan histories. See exactly what share of 60-day loans cure versus roll to chargeoff.
FICO Stratification
Segment performance by credit score band. Measure how deep-subprime borrowers (below 580) perform relative to near-prime (620-659) across issuers.
Geographic Concentration
Map loan counts and default rates by state. Identify regional pockets of stress before they show up in aggregate pool numbers.
Term & LTV Analysis
Measure how 72- and 84-month loans perform against shorter terms. Quantify the loss difference between high-LTV and low-LTV originations.
Issuer Benchmarking
Compare origination quality across issuers on a like-for-like basis: same FICO band, same term, same vintage. Apples-to-apples credit comparison.
