After Sept. 15, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will no longer accept LIBOR loan applications. Moreover, the FHFA and the GSEs expect all loan purchases linked to the London benchmark to cease by yearend.
Democratic senators ask Fannie and Freddie if they have attempted to model the risks associated with climate-related disasters, including floods, wildfires and extreme weather events.
Even as FHFA replaces its current ARM index with one created by Freddie Mac, Freddie and Fannie endorse a new SOFR index touted by the Fed as a replacement for LIBOR.
