Ms. Petrou most likely is referring to a discussion in the 10K about FHFA’s “Conservatorship Capital Framework,” which are new capital standards the company said FHFA directed it to implement in 2017 that include “specific requirements relating to risk on our book of business and modeled returns on our new acquisitions.”
In two places in the 2017 10K Fannie says, “In December 2017 and February 2018, FHFA, in its capacity as conservator, provided guidance relating to our guaranty fee pricing for new single-family acquisitions. FHFA’s guidance requires that we meet a specified minimum return on equity target based on the conservator capital framework. We must implement this target in the first quarter of 2018.” Then, when discussing guaranty fees on page 79, it adds this sentence: “We may be required to increase guaranty fees charged on some loans in order to meet this requirement.”
That’s not “utility regulation,” though. Utility regulation implies a maximum return on equity, which keeps guaranty fees down. Here FHFA is insisting on a minimum return on (notional) equity, which Fannie says may push some 2018 guaranty fees up.
