Buy-side

Buy-side MBS operations that scale with your volume, not your headcount.

Whether you run 100 trades a month or 500,000+, one account per block or 250+, TBA Mortgage Master takes your MBS middle and back office from human-capital-intensive to fully automated.

The buy-side reality

Mortgage exposure is easy to put on and punishing to operate.

Allocations

Multiply by account

Allocations, substitutions, and good-delivery checks grow with every account in a block.

Same team

Fixed capacity

The work lands on the same small team no matter how fast volume grows.

Risk

Manual = fails

Hand-keyed EPN allocations against stale pool factors are where fails begin.

What changes with AFS

Set your flows once. The network runs them.

Buy-side activity flows automatically to dealers’ books. You see and manage every trade and clearance flow — and step in only by exception.

  • AOT digital assignments — first and only vendor with the automation.
  • No-touch round robins — real-time Tradeweb processing.
  • Validated EPN allocations — against the full pool universe.
  • Custom templates & alerts — standardize and stay informed.
