From the beginning of the Enterprises' Single-Family CRT programs in 2013 through the end of 2017, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have transferred a portion of credit risk on $2.1 trillion of unpaid principal balance (UPB), with a combined Risk in Force (RIF) of about $69 billion, or 3.2 percent of UPB. An additional $972 billion of UPB and $246 billion of RIF has been transferred to primary mortgage insureers from 2013 through the end of 2017. Through CRT and mortgage insurance, the majority of the underliying mortgage credit risk on mortgages targeted for CRT has been transferred to private investors.
In 2017, the Enterprises transferred risk on $689 billion of UPB with a total RIF of $20.6 billion. Debt issuances accounted for 69 percent of RIF, reinsurance transactions accounted for 22 percent of RIF, lender risk sharing accounted for 8 percent of RIF, and senior/subordinate transactions accounted for 1 percent of RIF.
