Fannie Mae Pauses Re-REMICs for Freddie Mac Legacy LIBOR CMOs that Used the "BBA Method"

Freddie Mac announced today that it is evaluating the potential resecuritization impact of LIBOR being declared unrepresentative prior to the permanent cessation of LIBOR on its legacy LIBOR-indexed CMOs that used the "BBA Method." For the detailed list of impacted securities, please see Freddie Mac's announcement. During Freddie Mac's evaluation period, Fannie Mae does not anticipate including this cohort of Freddie Mac-issued legacy securities in Fannie Mae re-REMICs.

Fannie Mae is not further reviewing any of its legacy LIBOR CMOs after announcing the resolution of its prior review in May 2020. All legacy CMOs issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are eligible for inclusion in Fannie Mae re-REMICs, except for the cohort of Freddie Mac-issued legacy securities described above.

For questions, please contact the Fannie Mae Investor Help Line at 1-800-232-6643, Option 3 or by e-mail.
