Summary: In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (Privacy Act), the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) gives notices of two new proposed Privacy Act systems of records. The two new proposed systems are: Suspended Counterparty System (FHFA–23); and Employee Adverse Action and Disciplinary Records System (FHFA–24). The Suspended Counterparty System will contain information that FHFA will use to implement the Suspended Counterparty Program by which the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac), and the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks (Banks) (hereafter, collectively, ‘‘regulated entities’’ or individually, ‘‘regulated entity’’) are required to report to FHFA when they become aware that an individual or institution and any affiliates thereof, who are currently or have been engaged in a covered transaction with a regulated entity within three years of when the regulated entity becomes aware of covered misconduct, have engaged in fraud or other financial misconduct. The Employee Adverse Action and Disciplinary Records System will contain information on current or former FHFA employees who have been disciplined or had a performance-based action taken against them; who have a proposed disciplinary or performance based action against them; or who are or have been suspected of misconduct.
