Federal Housing Finance Agency Finalizes Goals for 2018-2022
February 2, 2018
The Federal Housing Finance Agency finalized its 2018-2022 strategic plan this week. A draft proposal of the plan was released back in October for public input. The long-range plan focuses on three strategic goals surrounding issues of safety and soundness of the GSEs; ensuring liquidity, stability and access in housing finance; and managing the conservatorship. When identifying risk in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the FHFA said it plans to carefully document and communicate any adverse examination findings and conclusions to the GSEs.
FHA’s COVID-19 loss-mitigation options will be rescinded and the Trump administration is taking a close look at the payment supplement program established during the Biden administration.
Mr. Cooper's owned servicing portfolio declined in the first quarter of 2025, the first decline posted by the nonbank since the second quarter of 2022.
Like most GSE reform plans, the hedge funder’s plan to privatize Fannie and Freddie starts with Treasury writing down its senior preferred shares and FHFA sharply reducing the capital requirements for the GSEs.
