- When comparing MPF pricing to pricing from other investors, other investors purchase the whole loan (asset & servicing); therefore, their price will include a Servicing Released Premium (SRP).

Instead, you will retain ongoing income of 25 bps annualized on a monthly basis for your services and 44 bps for Traditional Government loans.
