Summary

SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is proposing to reorganize and re-adopt existing investment regulations that apply to the Federal Home Loan Banks (Banks) and that were previously adopted by the Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) as new part 1267 of the FHFA’s regulations. FHFA is also proposing to incorporate into the new part 1267 limits on the Banks’ investment in mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and certain asset-backed securities (ABS) that are now set forth in the Financial Management Policy (FMP) that had been issued by the Finance Board. If the proposed rule is adopted in its current form, FHFA expects to terminate the FMP as of the effective date of the new rule.

DATES: Comments on the proposed rule must be received on or before July 6, 2010. For additional information, see SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.​
