Abstract
This article explains returns calculation of the Lehman Brothers MBS index, including aggregation of the individual mortgage pass-through pools into generic MBS used in the index; pricing of the MBS generics; conventions used to calculate returns on these generics; and aggregation of security returns into index returns. An appendix offers a mathematical formulation of the conventions used to calculate index returns of MBS.
