WASHINGTON, Oct. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fannie Mae (OTC Bulletin Board: FNMA) today announced that the company issued approximately $8.5 billion1 of multifamily MBS in the third quarter of 2012, backed by new multifamily loans delivered by our lenders. Year-to-date issuance is $22.3 billion. Fannie Mae also resecuritized $4.0 billion of DUS MBS through its Fannie Mae Guaranteed Multifamily Structures (Fannie Mae GeMS™) program in the third quarter.
"A protracted, low interest rate environment has kept the borrowing rate below 4 percent, and consequently, originations have been robust," said Kimberly Johnson, Fannie Mae Vice President of Multifamily Capital Markets.
The company's DUS MBS securities provide market participants with highly predictable cash flows and call protection in defined maturities of five, seven and ten years. Fannie Mae's GeMS program consists of structured multifamily securities created from collateral specifically selected by Fannie Mae Capital Markets. Features of Fannie Mae GeMS have included block size transactions, collateral diversity and pricing close to par through Fannie Mae's multifamily REMICs (ACES) and multifamily Mega securities.
Highlights of Fannie Mae's multifamily activity in the third quarter of 2012 include the following:
1) MULTIFAMILY MBS BACKED BY NEW MULTIFAMILY ACQUISITIONS

2) FANNIE MAE GeMS ISSUANCE
