  2. What is Ginnie Mae • Ginnie Mae (GNMA) is the Gov’t Nat’l Mortgage Association, part of HUD • GNMA provides a guarantee to investors who purchase FHA and VA home loans bundled into securities • These securities are sold to investors and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government

OverviewGinnie Mae Public-Private Partnership • Expands home ownership to those with difficulty obtaining loans: minorities, low-moderate income, first time buyers • Provides consumers more choice with increased price advantages and innovations • Spreads some risk of default to private sector, benefiting taxpayers

  4. How It Works • Currently, GNMA securtized-home loans are insured only by government agencies (FHA and VA) • New program allows the private sector to insure GNMA loans • Private insurance results in reduced risk to taxpayers • Reduced taxpayer risk = more capital available to insure home mortgages = more home owners

  5. Complements FHA Program • New program expands opportunities for home loans • Currently, more than half of all FHA loans go to buyers with down payments of 3% or less • New program strengthens GNMA by focusing on 3%-10% down payment range • This allows GNMA to securitize more loans in that 3-10% range, resulting in more loan opportunities

Taxpayer Benefits • Losses from default spread between government AND private insurers (currently all losses borne by taxpayers) • New program employs private sector methods for mitigating persons’ financial problems • Keeps more homeowners in homes • Keeps more homes occupied, neighborhoods safer
