Loans underlying Australian prime residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) decreased by 9 basis points to 1.26 per cent in November 2012 when compared with the previous month.

According to a recent report by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, this is the lowest level of arrears recorded since December 2010.

The total prime RMBS outstanding decreased slightly to about $108.3 billion.

Subprime RMBS arrears continued to improve, falling by 133 basis points to 7.08 per cent in November.

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services said the recent falls could mainly be attributed to a new transaction issued during the month.
