Payment Assurance Structure (PAS) is a standardized, non-discretionary servicing control framework governing how restricted reserves are applied to satisfy scheduled payments when cash-flow timing varies.
Developed and implemented by Anchor Point Advisory, LLC
Restricted reserves are sponsor- or borrower-funded.
Funds are held in bank-controlled accounts.
Draws follow predefined, non-discretionary servicing rules.
Servicing systems record scheduled payments as satisfied.
PAS governs execution — not credit decisions.
