Seven years after the housing crisis, the role of government loan programs remains prominent and 2015 has seen record breaking levels of Ginnie Mae MBS issuance backed by FHA, VA and RHS loans. This panel covers where we are, where we need to go, and what risks we must navigate to get there. Panelists will answer questions such as: - How strong is the housing market – should the government agencies be more, or less aggressive in pricing their programs?
- What is the effect of mortgage bank directed regulation and state and federal investigations and litigation – should the post-crisis "work-out" be over? Have banks been punished enough? Are we shutting out opportunity for buyers and renters?
- How do we make homeownership and renting more affordable?
- If you could accomplish three specific goals in the next year for your agency or for housing finance overall, what would they be and why?
