Supervision & Regulations
Supervision & Regulations

The Federal Housing Enterprises Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 gives OFHEO a broad range of supervisory tools that the agency may employ not only to address Enterprise problems in a remedial fashion but also to take actions to prevent such problems from developing. The agency’s use of those authorities helps mitigate systemic risk by reducing the risk of failure of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Go to the Supervision of the Enterprises section to find detailed information about OFHEO's Supervision of the Enterprises including the items detailed "in this section"  at left.

Go to the Regulations section to review OFHEO proposed and final regulations drafted to support and enhance OFHEO's authorities to regulate the financial safety and soundness of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, comments on those regulations, and OFHEO's plans for future regulations detailed in the Unified Agenda for each year.
