FHFA Statement on Fannie Mae Loan-Level Data Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
4/30/2013

"The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is pleased with Fannie Mae’s release of historical single-family, loan-level credit performance data. This release represents an important step toward returning private capital to the mortgage market and follows a similar data release by Freddie Mac last month.

"By increasing transparency in loan-level credit performance of single-family mortgages, these releases pave the way for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to pursue risk-sharing transactions. These transactions, a key goal of the FHFA Strategic Plan for Enterprise Conservatorships, will allow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to gradually contract their dominant presence in the marketplace and help lay the foundation for the U.S. housing finance system of the future."
