Washington, D.C. – The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) today announced that it is extending the response period for the agency's Single-Family Credit Risk Transfer Request for Input (RFI) by 45 days. The input period was previously set to close on August 29, 2016, 60 days after the RFI was published. The response period will now close on October 13, 2016.
FHFA is extending the input period in light of requests from stakeholders for more time to evaluate the information and questions raised in the RFI. The RFI lays out FHFA's principles of credit risk transfer and seeks feedback on credit risk transfer policy issues and on proposals to adopt front-end credit risk transfer.
Input should be submitted electronically or via mail to the Federal Housing Finance Agency, Office of Financial Analysis, Modeling and Simulations, 400 7th Street, S.W., 9th floor, Washington, D.C., 20219.
