What waterfall is referred to, in the event that there are multiple waterfalls?

[ESMA 33-128-563 Securitisation Q&A, Q&A 5.14.8] (a) As set out in Article 4(1) of the RTS on disclosure, the item corresponding to each category of receipt or disbursement of funds in the securitisation, according to the applicable priority of payments as at the data cut-off date, must be reported. This is regardless of whether the item is reported or not in the issuer’s own (i.e. different from Annex 12) Investor Report. Some further clarifications include:

Every item of both source and application of funds must be included in this section even if the amount of the items is equal to zero. These items must be listed in the same order as specified in the transaction documentation. Every Cash flow item (IVSF4), Amount Paid During Period (IVSF5) and Available Funds Post (IVSF6) must be reported in different cells. Therefore, all the cash flow items (IVSF4), the amounts paid during period (IVSF5) and all the available funds post (IVSF6) do not have to be populated in one cell but instead one cell must be used for the individual item, one cell for the corresponding payment during, and lastly one cell for the corresponding available funds post. With regards to the ‘content of report’ in the cash-flow information section there is an example mentioning line A and line B in fields IVSF5 and IVSF6. Thus, each line (A and B in the above example) is expected to have a separate unique identifier and it is not allowed to list multiple amounts / entries in one field. The Cash inflow item must be populated with positive values and the funds paid out in negative values in the field Amount Paid During Period (IVSF5). The field Unique Identifier (IVSF1) must be repeated as many times as items you are reporting in this section.

  (b)        Securitisations (such as certain Master Trust structures) may contain several waterfalls. In such circumstances, each waterfall must be reported one after the other, without any separations between each waterfall. In cases when one of the waterfalls, e.g. the Mortgage Trustee waterfall, runs monthly while another waterfall (e.g. Funding and/or Issuer waterfalls) runs on a quarterly basis, then the reporting should be aligned with the frequency of the information being reported. In other words, if the securitisation is submitting data on underlying exposures, investor reports, and significant events / inside information on a monthly basis, then the reporting of the cashflow information section should be set at a monthly basis as well. This implies that, for two out of every three months in the quarter, the monthly waterfall is completed and zero amounts are provided for the quarterly-frequency waterfalls (but the cashflow items for those two waterfalls, i.e. field IVSF4, is still completed). If the securitisation is submitting data on underlying exposures, investor reports, and significant events / inside information on a quarterly basis, then the reporting of the cashflow information section should be set at a quarterly basis as well. This implies that, for the monthly waterfall (e.g. the Mortgage Trustee waterfall in the above example), the amount generated for that waterfall should be aggregated for three months, while the information on the quarterly waterfalls (e.g. the Funding and/or Issuer waterfalls in the above example) is reported for that quarter. If there are several Securitisation Special Purpose Entities, all allocations that take place must be reported. The purpose is to allow any entity to observe the flows of funds from all sources throughout the securitisation. Therefore, taking as an example a securitisation operating according to the diagramme below, the cashflow information section must be completed for cash flows that are associated with SSPE 1 and/or SSPE 2.
