ORG_INDX_CODE_TYPE, and POST_MOD_ARM_INDX_CODE_TYPE to allow filers to reference changes to loans as part of the transition from LIBOR
benchmaked rates. For more information, see the updated "EDGAR ABS XML Technical Specification" document available on the SEC's Public
Website (https://www.sec.gov/info/edgar/tech-specs). |
