Fitch took into consideration both quantitative and qualitative factors in evaluating GEBLT's credit enhancement structure. After reviewing historical default and recovery data on both an annual and static pool basis to develop an expected loss rate, Fitch analyzed cash flows reflecting stressed default rates, recovery rates, and recovery timing lags under several default timing scenarios. Fitch also assessed borrower and balloon payment concentrations over the life of the transaction. This review included a semiannual comparison of top borrower concentrations with expected credit enhancement. Fitch's ratings also took into consideration the historical delinquency and loss performance of GECF and SBF; the origination, underwriting, and servicing experience of GECF and SBF; the role of GECC as master servicer; and the sound legal and payment structure.
