Class M-II-3 of Residential Asset Mortgage Products Inc. Trust series 2003-RS7 has been placed on review for possible downgrade by Moody's Investors Service.The negative rating action was attributed to credit enhancement levels that are deemed to be low given the projected losses on the underlying pools. "The pool of mortgages has seen losses in recent months, and future loss could cause a more significant erosion of the overcollateralization," Moody's said. The transaction consists of a fixed-rate pool and an adjustable-rate pool containing mortgages that are not eligible for inclusion in Residential Funding Co. loan program securitizations because they do not satisfy the program guidelines, the rating agency said.
