This model proved to be viable for several years as short-term funding could be rolled- over on normal terms. However, the LPHI risk in this strategy was a combination of three particular risks: (1) the bank or its conduits would be unable to roll-over maturing funding, (2) the cost of such funding would rise relative to the yield on mortgage loansthat it kept on the balance sheet and not securitised, i.e. it would be forced to pay some form of “penalty” interest rate, and (3) that it would be unable to securitise those mortgage assets that it intended to. The LPHI risk was, therefore, that it would be either unable to roll-over its short-term funding in the event of a serious liquidity squeeze or that the necessary roll-over funding could only be secured at high interest rates.
