Event 53, ARM Loans Using the Base Index Rate

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page  Print this Topic

ARM event letter 53 will automatically generate for loans that have the Use this Base Index Rate option (LNBSIN) checked and that have an event that would trigger any of the following ARM event letters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 17, 18, 19, 20, 37, and 38. Instead of the normal event letter generating, it is switched to event 53. The triggering events need to be set up in institution option EVNT; however, event 53 does not need to be entered in option EVNT (see the FPS GOLD Only box on the main GOLD EventLetters page for more information). Only letter 0 is available for use.
