The activities
of the government-sponsored enterprises are closely tracked in The GSE
Report. Special Supplements to The GSE Report are analytical
studies that examine the business plans of the housing GSEs, and their impact
on consumers, taxpayers, and industry alike.
Both The GSE Report
and the Special Supplements to The GSE Report are
widely circulated to federal and international government officials, academics,
“think tanks,” industry representatives, and the press.
