Summary

SUMMARY: Section 1127 of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) amended section 1326 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (Safety and Soundness Act) by requiring that, subject to privacy considerations as described in section 304(j) of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975 (HMDA), the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) shall make public certain data related to high-cost single-family loans purchased and securitized by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (collectively, the Enterprises) collected by the Director under section 1324(b)(6) of the Safety and Soundness Act, as amended by HERA. See 12 U.S.C. 4544(b)(6), 4546(d).

FHFA has adopted an Order that implements the changes required by HERA by revising the single-family matrix in FHFA’s Public Use Database (PUDB) to include data fields for the high-cost single-family securitized loans data in a new National File C, effective for 2010 and beyond. The Order also makes technical changes to the single-family and multifamily data matrices of the PUDB, effective for 2010 and beyond, to conform the data fields to existing PUDB data reporting practices and HERA changes. This Notice of Order sets forth FHFA’s Order with accompanying Appendix containing the revised single-family and multifamily matrices, and describes the new and revised data fields.

DATES: Effective Date of the Order: The Order with accompanying Appendix is effective on September 21, 2011.​
