QuoteOriginally posted by: Koalawhat is TTIB for CMO??Two Tiered Index Bond.It's a cashflow constructed synthetically from mortgage pools. This sort of bond would be what you would call a "mortgage derivative" or support tranche of a CMO deal.What makes it "two-tiered" is that it may have an embedded cap and floor - most other CMO support structures may only have one embedded "option" type.
