A Legal Take on Fannie-BofA

Fannie announced an initiative to make loan-level data for single-family MBS accessible as a move towards transparency. The agency will start releasing loan-level data beginning the first quarter of 2012 and will provide data updates regularly. Obviously investors in agency MBS, and all MBS, want to know what they’re buying, and this is another step in the direction of restoring investor confidence. The first release of loan-level data files for single-family MBS will be downloadable and published under the “New Issues Statistics” tab in PoolTalk, which is a tool that retrieves pool-level information and data on Fannie Mae securities. Concurring with the release of the loan-level data will be new features on PoolTalk, including the ability to view data on a specific pool and monitor data for specific securities at a glance. Daily issuance files, month statistics, and MBS-related documents will be accessible through PoolTalk.
