This excerpt taken from the ALL 10-Q filed May 7, 2009. Mortgage
loans Our
mortgage loan portfolio, which is primarily held in the Allstate Financial
portfolio, was $9.71 billion at March 31, 2009 and comprised
primarily loans secured by first mortgages on developed commercial real
estate. Geographical and property type
diversification are key considerations used to manage our exposure. The portfolio is diversified across several
property types. Our exposure to any
metropolitan area is also highly diversified, with the largest exposure not
exceeding 9% of the portfolio. The
average debt service coverage ratio represents the amount of cash flows from
the property available by the borrower to meet its principal and interest
payment obligations. The average debt
service coverage ratio of the portfolio as of March 31, 2009 was 1.8, and
only 4.0% of the mortgage loan portfolio had a debt service coverage ratio
under 1.0.
In the first quarter of 2009, $156 million of commercial mortgage loans were contractually due. Of these, 32% were paid as due, 29% were extended generally for less than one year and 39% are in the process of refinancing or restructuring negotiations. In addition, $277 million that were not contractually due in the first quarter of 2009 were paid in full. We currently have $25 million of loans in the process of foreclosure and we are aggressively pursing workout solutions for these loans, which includes refinancing, extensions and sales.
