Morningstar DBRS Finalizes Its Provisional Credit Ratings on FIGRE Trust 2026-FL1\
<https://dbrs.morningstar.com/research/477810>

<mark style="color:$danger;">-- To qualify a borrower for income, Figure seeks to confirm the borrower's stated income using proprietary technology algorithms.</mark>\ <mark style="color:$danger;">-- The lender uses the FICO 9 credit score model instead of the classic FICO credit score model used by most mortgage originators.</mark>\ <mark style="color:$danger;">-- Instead of title insurance, Figure uses an electronic lien search algorithm to identify existing property liens.</mark>\ <mark style="color:$danger;">-- Instead of a full property appraisal Figure uses a property valuation provided by an automatic valuation model (AVM), or in some cases where an AVM is not available or is ineligible, a broker price opinion (BPO) or a residential evaluation.</mark>

The credit impact of these factors is generally loan specific. Although technologically advanced, the income,&#x20;employment, and asset verification methods used by Figure were generally treated as less than full&#x20;documentation in the RMBS Insight model.

**Repurchase Agreements**

The Fund may engage in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are fixed income securities in the form of agreements backed by collateral. These agreements typically involve the acquisition by the Fund of securities from the selling institution coupled with the agreement that the selling institution will repurchase the underlying securities at a specified price and at a fixed time in the future. The Fund may accept a wide variety of underlying securities as collateral for the repurchase agreements entered into by the Fund. Any such securities serving as collateral are marked-to-market daily in order to maintain full collateralization.

In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Fund’s policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral. The collateral is in the possession of the Fund’s custodian and is evaluated to ensure that its market value exceeds, at a minimum, 102% of the original face amount of the repurchase agreements.&#x20;

**Reverse Repurchase Agreements**

Each of the Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund sells securities and agrees to repurchase them at a particular price at a future date. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, such buyer or its trustee or receiver may receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities, and the Fund’s use of the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement may effectively be restricted pending such decision.

***

* [**Auto lenders**](https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/which-credit-score-is-used-for-car-loans/) typically use FICO Auto Score 9, an industry-specific variation of FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 9, or other FICO Auto Scores. FICO Auto Scores are designed for auto lenders and help predict how likely a borrower is to pay a car loan on time.
* [**Credit card issuers**](https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/why-you-should-apply-for-a-credit-card-based-on-your-credit-score/) often use FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 9, FICO Bankcard Score 9 or other FICO Bankcard scores. FICO Bankcard Scores are variations on the base FICO<sup>®</sup> Scores designed for use in credit card decisions.
* [**Mortgage lenders**](https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/which-credit-scores-do-mortgage-lenders-use/) generally use classic FICO scoring models—FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 2, FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 4 or FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 5—if they plan to sell the loans to government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Recent changes now allow lenders to use VantageScore<sup>®</sup> 4.0 credit scores for loans they plan to sell to the GSEs. FICO<sup>®</sup> Score 10 T is also expected to be adopted by the GSEs at a later date. For loans not sold to GSEs, mortgage lenders can choose which credit scoring model to use.
