The
Monthly Treasury Average is a relatively new ARM index. This index is the
12 month average of the monthly average yields of U.S. Treasury securities
adjusted to a constant
maturity of one
year. It is calculated by averaging the previous 12 monthly values of the
1-Year Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT).
Because this index is an annual average, it is more steady
than the 1-Year CMT index. The MTA index generally fluctuates slightly
more than the 11th District 11th District Cost of Funds Index
(COFI) although its movements
track each other very closely. The MTA and COFI-indexed ARMs work much the
same way.
