Capital Requirements based on Utility and General business Models For the purpose of determining true risk based Enterprise Capital Requirements in a fair and reasonable manner FnF business needs to be classified in to 2 categories. 1. Gov Policy Mandated Utility Business Model: This business is to comply with Gov policy based mandates like affordable housing , counter cyclical roles... This should be considered as utility model based business. For this type of business, Gov should underwrite all FnF business transactions/investments, guarantee resonable ROI and pay service fees.
