Fannie Mae (FNMA) Stock Price, News & Analysis

Company Overview

Fannie Mae, formally the Federal National Mortgage Association, is a U.S. government-sponsored enterprise that supports the secondary mortgage market. Founded in 1938, the company generally does not make mortgage loans directly to borrowers. Instead, it purchases eligible mortgages from lenders, helping those lenders replenish funds for additional home loans.

Fannie Mae also packages many of the mortgages it acquires into mortgage-backed securities and guarantees investors timely payment of principal and interest, subject to the terms of those securities. Its activities are intended to promote liquidity and access to mortgage financing across the United States.

Fannie Mae has operated under federal conservatorship since 2008, overseen by the Federal Housing Finance Agency. Its business is focused on the U.S. housing finance market.
