Preliminary MIP Data Record
One record per Preliminary Multiple Issuer Pool
FILE LAYOUT DETAILS:
(1) This is a daily disclosure file. The file name is “MIPPrelim.txt”.
(2) Preliminary MIP data in this file is updated based on activity (see the Multiple Issuer Pool
Numbers PDF files) and is current as of the “Record Update Date” in the individual Header
Records.
Note: MIP Pooling activity determines which MIP Pool records are in the layout. If there
has been no pooling activity (e.g. no MIP pooling activity for 30 year, 4% MIP), there will
not be a Preliminary MIP Record in the file. If there is no pooling activity for an entire set of
records, e.g. no pooling activity for 15 year fixed, then only the Header Record and the
Trailer Record for that record set is provided. It is possible in certain disclosure files that no
Preliminary MIP Records are disclosed (ie. only headers/trailers for all three record sets).
(3) The record order of records in the file is as follows:
a. 15 Year, 1
st
set of records; and Header and Trailer for 15 yr.
b. 30 Year, 2
nd
set of records; and Header and Trailer for 30 yr.
c. Adjustable Rate, 3rd set of records; and Header and Trailer for ARM.
(4) This same record format is used for each record. The “Record Name” field in the Header
Record indicates if the record is a 15 Year, 30 Year, or Adjustable Rate set of records.
(5) All records/fields are fixed length.
(6) MIP Finalization for a month occurs on the 5
th
Business Day before the first of the next
month and will be reflected in the MIPPrelim.txt file published on the next Business Day.
