Can Government Open More Doors
for Borrowers?
NALHFA Annual Conference
Mary K. Kinney, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer
April 30, 2015
In 1968, Congress established the Government National Mortgage
Association, known as “Ginnie Mae.”
Ginnie Mae is a self-sustaining government-owned corporation organized
within HUD. Its President is nominated by the President of the United
States and confirmed by the United States Senate.
Ginnie Mae’s mission is to expand affordable housing in America by linking
global capital markets to the nation's housing finance markets.
Ginnie Mae securities are the only mortgage-backed securities that offer
the full faith and credit guaranty of the United States Government.
Ginnie Mae’s role is to guarantee timely principal and interest payments to
investors, and it charges guaranty fees for this commitment.

Differences in Ginnie Mae & the GSEs
Ginnie Mae GSEs
Governance Wholly owned Government corporation Under Government conservatorship since September 2008 but remain publicly traded companies (not on NYSE)
Government Guaranty
Explicit guaranty to investors Implicit guaranty to investors “ “too big to fail”
Business Activities
Does not purchase loans, nor does it buy, sell, or issue securities as part of its regular course of business, but approves private lending institutions to issue MBS for which Ginnie Mae provides the guaranty.
Purchases loans; buys, sells, and issues securities.
Rates and Terms Trade at a higher price than comparable GSE MBS, thus providing a lower interest rate to borrowers
Trade at lower prices relative to Ginnie Mae MBS
Functions Guaranty and bond administration of MBS only Loan-level guaranty and bond administration of MBS; and management of investment portfolio of whole loans and MBS
Risk
Limited risk to Ginnie Mae. Issuers/Servicer s retain risk. Issuers must have liquidity and capital to advance payments of principal and interest to investors when a loan defaults. Government agencies insurance (e.g., FHA, VA, RD, PIH) repays Issuers for principal (not Ginnie Mae). Also, Issuers are responsible for unreimbursed credit losses for the securities they issue.
Significant risk to the GSEs. Borrower Credit Risk, Interest Rate Risk, and Servicer Risk. Both guarantee full repayment of principal to investors when a loan defaults. Both GSEs are responsible for the risk of loss on their securities.
Eligible Collateral Government-backed loans (FHA, VA, RD, PIH) Conventional Loans

Ginnie Mae Model Is Stable but the Market is Dynamic
Ginnie Mae guaranteed the first MBS in the world in 1970 and continues to
run a single security platform for all 500 approved issuers.
We do this via the administration of a mortgage-backed securities (MBS)
program collateralized by mortgage loans that are insured by government
agencies (FHA, VA, USDA).
$1.5 trillion of loans currently serve as collateral in MBS pools guaranteed
by Ginnie Mae.
Issuers pay Ginnie Mae commitment fees and guarantee fees to use the
government wrap.
Ginnie Mae has earned profits averaging $900 million the past five fiscal
years. 9

FHLB Chicago Conduit Issuer Benefits to Small Lenders
Community banks, credit unions, and other small banks will be able to
access the Ginnie Mae system more easily through the FHLB Chicago
(FHLBC) Conduit.
The FHLBC Conduit will allow approved smaller institutions to sell loans to
the FHLBC, which will aggregate them and issue Ginnie Mae MBS.
Participating small lenders will obtain better pricing for loans through the
FHLBC Conduit than through the sale of whole loans.
Aggregators often require the sale of a loan’s servicing as well, but only
pay a fraction of its market value – smaller lenders will gain more pricing
leverage through the Conduit.
The FHLBC Conduit will help smaller lenders maintain and develop
customer relationships since the Conduit includes the option to retain
servicing.

Summary
Non-banks are rapidly transforming the market by playing a critical role in
increasing access to mortgage funds for credit-worthy borrowers.
These new players provide much-needed competition and innovation to
the mortgage marketplace.
Due to their structure, they are highly complex financial institutions that
have no prudential regulator other than Ginnie Mae.
Ginnie Mae’s Salary & Expenses appropriations have not kept pace with
the growth of non-bank issuance.
Ginnie Mae needs the $28.3 million in appropriations proposed by
the Administration to hire the staff necessary to best manage risk on
behalf of American taxpayers.
