Fannie Mae (FNMA)

[Rodney5]

I maybe wrong about why Lamberth’s delaying but I’m definitely not wrong a distribution of capital is not allowed by the Charter Act nor HERA while the companies are not capitalized. So, break the law again??

Neither the Charter Act nor did HERA authorize the Treasury to charge a commitment fee; no authorization given to the FHFA to make a capital distribution while undercapitalized. It’s all illegal and unconstitutional.

(2) The Corporation may not make any capital distribution that would decrease the total capital of the Corporation (as such term is defined in section 1303 of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992) to an amount less than the risk-based capital level for the Corporation established under section 1361 of such Act or that would decrease the core capital of the Corporation (as such term is defined in section 1303 of such Act) to an amount less than the minimum capital level for the Corporation established under section 1362 of such Act, without prior written approval of the distribution by the Director of the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
