Adjustable and fixed rate mortgages as a screening mechanism for default risk
The interest rate for an adjustable-rate mortgage is a variable one. The initial interest rate on an ARM is set below the market rate on a comparable fixed-rate loan, and then the rate rises as time goes on. If the ARM is held long enough, the interest rate will surpass the going rate for fixed-rate loans. Prepayment Penalty as a Screening Mechanism for Default and Prepayment Risks.

A fixed-rate mortgage certainly does protect you from interest-rate risk, and I confess that every time I contemplate my 3 percent mortgage, a certain satisfied smile steals across my face.

We show that under asymmetric information, where the In the presence of asymmetric information, a self-selection process is attained, where lower default risk type borrowers choose a mortgage loan with constant over graduated payment, constant over price-leveladjusted payment, adjustable over fixed rate, low over high loanto-value ratio, and short over long maturity.

Prior research on ARMs argues that, unlike households with a fixed-rate mortgage (FRM), households with an ARM are subject to a "payment shock" when the interest rate on their mortgage resets to a higher level and their monthly mortgage payment increases.

Borrower Mobility, Self-Selection, and the Relative Prices of Fixed- and Adjustable-Rate Mortgages. Journal of Financial Intermediation 2: 401–421. Brueckner, J.K. and J.R. Follain. 1988. In this paper, we combine signaling and screening mechanisms and demonstrate a signaling-screening separating equilibrium. We present the analysis within the framework of mortgage markets. Borrowers signal their default risk types to lenders by acquiring different credit records. This partially separates borrowers into subsets. The interest rate for an adjustable-rate mortgage is a variable one. The initial interest rate on an ARM is set below the market rate on a comparable fixed-rate loan, and then the rate rises as time goes on. If the ARM is held long enough, the interest rate will surpass the going rate for fixed-rate loans. Prepayment Penalty as a Screening Mechanism for Default and Prepayment Risks.
