As I recall, for the 40 years prior to 2008, the GSE'S did very well with less than 1% Capital on their books.

The lower the Capital Ratio, the easier it will be to pass through Mortgage Finance savings to Americans borrowing for a home.

No question in my mind, with their strong book of business, $113B in Capital, and risk management tools in place, they could be released today.

But this Administration has no plan and continues to punt to the US Congress to decide the future of American Housing Finance.
