The methodolgy or the sql for obtaining the data these curves from the private data export have already been explained in detail, but briefly…

• The Y axis is the percentage of all loans orginated of a given age that are currently 1 month late or worse…
• The X axis is the days loan origination. 
• The curves stop when there is less than 250 loans in the “bucket.”
• These curves are for all loans of a given Credit Grade.  One would get different curves (flatter slopes=better); for exmaple, if you were to choose loans with 2 or less inquires and 5 years of credit history you would see flatter slopes.

The range is 7-8% for AA all the way to ~55% for HR.
