This book was released on 2011-05-06 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statement of Deborah Lucas, Assistant Dir. for Financial Analysis, Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Historically, support for the mortgage market has been part of a broader federal policy aimed at encouraging home ownership and, to a lesser extent, at making housing more affordable for low- and moderate-income families. The activities of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Federal Housing Admin. (FHA) have been an important aspect of that policy. In 2010, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac owned or guaranteed roughly half of all outstanding mortgages in the U.S., and they financed 63% of the new mortgages originated that year. Including the 23% of home loans insured by federal agencies such as FHA, about 86% of new mortgages made in 2010 carried a federal guarantee. However, the largest federal subsidiesfor home ownership have generally come from favorable tax treatment for housing. This testimony focuses on the CBO's estimates of the budgetary cost of the government's takeover and continuing operation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Lucas also discusses how the budgetary treatment of those two enterprises differs from that of FHA and other federal mortgage programs and the potential problems those inconsistencies cause, and summarizes alternative options for the future role of the federal government in the secondary mortgage market.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The federal government assumed control of the ailing Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) in 2008, two institutions that facilitate the flow of funding for home loans nationwide. The cost to taxpayers of that takeover, and the structural weaknesses that contributed to the institutions' financial problems, have prompted policymakers to consider various alternatives for the government's future role in the secondary (resale) market for residential mortgages. This book examines how Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac evolved into the institutions they are today and the rationales that are often cited for federal involvement in the secondary mortgage market and the problems that existed with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac before the recent financial crisis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When making policy recommendations for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the secondary mortgage market, it is necessary to understand the past of Fannie and Freddie. Therefore, this paper will look at history of the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) from their establishment through the recent financial crisis in the first two chapters. The third chapter will evaluate the proposals for reforming the system of mortgage finance in America and culminate in a policy recommendation. An econometric analysis of the affects of selected events on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's stock price will make up the final chapter of the paper. Given the unique characteristics of the GSEs, which are explained in detail in the first two chapters, it is worthwhile to examine the financial market's reaction to both negative and positive events with respect to Fannie and Freddie. This will be accomplished through an event study in Chapter 4 that spans from the early 2000s till July 2008, immediately prior to the GSEs entry into the conservatorship. The conclusion reached in this paper is that the secondary mortgage market, the system of mortgage finance, and the macroeconomy can do without Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the future because the costs of their continued existence outweigh the benefits.
