Yield curve spread on a simple mortgage-backed security (MBS) is the flat spread over the treasury yield curve required in discounting a pre-determined coupon schedule to arrive at its present market price. That is, the MBS yield curve spread is based on a comparison of the market price to a model of the bond which includes no variability in interest rate or mortgage repayment rates.
