KBRA Releases Auto Loan ABS Indices for May 2021

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) releases its auto loan ABS indices for May 2021.

May remittance reports showed auto loan credit trends remained strong during the April collection period. Early-stage delinquencies (30-59 days past due) in the KBRA Prime Auto Loan Index fell 8 basis points (bps) month-over-month (MoM) to 0.60%, while late-stage delinquencies (60+ days past due) declined 1 bp to 0.22%. Meanwhile, early- and late-stage delinquencies in the KBRA Non-Prime Auto Loan Index were up 3 bps and down 17 bps MoM, respectively, coming in at 5.21% and 2.76%. Annualized net losses also trended lower in both indices during the month, driven by favorable delinquency metrics and a strong used car market, which helped to keep recovery rates at elevated levels.
