Fannie Mae operates in the U.S. housing finance system by purchasing mortgages from lenders, which helps these lenders maintain cash flow to offer more loans. The company buys mortgages from banks and financial institutions, holding some in its portfolio while packaging others into mortgage-backed securities (MBS) that are sold to investors. This process provides a steady flow of capital back into the housing market, promoting homeownership and rental opportunities. Fannie Mae earns revenue through fees for guaranteeing payments on MBS and from interest on its mortgage portfolio. The company aims to facilitate access to affordable housing and is recognized for its commitment to diversity, inclusion, and community service.
